.pdb
files. Make sure to build the engine with the Profile
configuration so that .pdb
files are generated. The following video gives an overview of how to clone and build the CRYENGINE source:.pdb
, .dll
and .exe
files in the bin
folder using SendPdbs. Make sure to note the application name, version and database as you'll need these values later..cryproject
file for your project. Open the .cryproject
file in a text editor and add the following snippet of JSON:{{application}}
, {{version}}
, and {{database}}
with values specific to your game. Note these values must match the values you used when you uploaded symbols for CRYENGINE..pdb
files so that minidumps can be debugged by a remote machine. If your build does not output .pdb
files you will need to change the MSVC flags with CMAKE
and regenerate the solution.bin
using SendPdbs..cryproject
file for your game and select Launch Game
. Once the game has launched press the ` (backtick)
key on your keyboard to display the console. Type ?crash
to ensure that all of the variables from the Project Configuration
step have been loaded by your game. To generate a crash report, enter sys_crashrpt_generate
into the console:ID
column to see the details of your crash report. In this case the last 4 stack frames are all related to the crash report generator and the frame of interest is the 5th frame of the call stack. Create a subkey by expanding the 5th row in the Active Thread
and then click the Create Subkey
button. Navigate back to the crash and notice that the Stack Key is now CrySystem!CXConsole::ExecuteCommand(2427)
instead of CrySystem!CCrashHandler::GetExceptionPointers(1566)
