Still happening in 1.4.3

Comment by Paul Davis [ 05/Nov/12 ]

Tested, not a problem in 1.4.2

is duplicated by MC-2120 iron golem crashes client/server

Comment by Ed Hall [ 02/Nov/12 ]

Confirmed; client crashed as Iron Golem approached. Traceback was identical to the one posted. Samuel's work-around (thanks!) allowed me to continue in the same world.

Comment by Rickard Åberg [ 02/Nov/12 ]

I have 2 golems near where I logged off, so everytime I join the server the client crashes. So I guess it's the golem,

Comment by Cassie Taylor [ 02/Nov/12 ]

I can definitely confirm. Recreated crash MULTIPLE times.

Comment by Éliás Ádám [ 01/Nov/12 ]

i had a few crash today when i worked on my iron golem farm, and i was using 1.4.3 Pre-release. I couldn't even reloaded my save but a force update solved my problem. I think its related to the iron golems.

Comment by Samuel Dionne-Riel [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Workaround
Disable particles (Minimal) in Video Settings.

Comment by Carey Tilden [ 01/Nov/12 ]

I'm getting a similar crash. Attached another crash report in case it helps.

Comment by Robert D. Mendoza [ 01/Nov/12 ]

This happened to me on Mac OS X nearly seconds after using the 1.4.3 pre-release. Here is my crash report. Occurred while walking around a village at night.

Comment by Chris Howard [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Thank you for this. I've been having terrible crash issues and I live under a golem farm, this explains the crashing.

Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Pro-tip. Do NOT push the golems into water while trying to kill them off to recover your world. Insta-crash on world load now. (waits for 1.4.4)

Comment by Alexander Hammett [ 01/Nov/12 ]

I can confirm
Corrupted my world
With the other severe bugs that definitely means 1.4.4

Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Confirmed, walking golem causes the issue.

Comment by Joël Fivat [ 01/Nov/12 ]

I have the same problem, I found out it is particles generated when the iron golem walks that makes the game crash. Can you confirm ?

Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Full crash report attached. Seems to be a few instances of this being reported.

Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Let me know if that doesn't work.

Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Randomly, have managed to reproduce. I was trying to mess with playing music discs in a creative world.

I had placed a music disc into a jukebox to test the sound it makes. It was playing, and I went to options and turned sound up from ~44% to 100%. I noticed the music disc didnt actually increase in volume. So i popped the disc out and put another in. The volume was now increased. I randomly popped it out again and put in another, and got the crash. Will try and replicate again now.

Edit: Now that world is corrupt and throws the error on joining. Will upload.

Comment by Selbram (Tory Clement) [ 01/Nov/12 ]

Could you attach the crash report and tell us what you were doing when this happened?
