Description
Happens on SMG2 startup, in coin room on Peach's Castle Demo, etc. I bisected and found the change causing the issue is D3D: remove load texture on creation optimization .

- Relates to usability changed from Yes to No
"Relates to usability" is for confusing UI and similar things, not crashes and other defects.

Exporting a dump file via Task Manager produces a 1.2GB file that compresses to ~200MB. Is there any way you could try to reproduce this yourself so I don't have to find a way/place to put that?

I spend a few hours debugging this back before this issue was created.
From memory:
- It only happens on Intel and Microsoft's software renderer. AMD and Nvidia are fine (so chances are it's a bug in our code that AMD/NVidia are working around)
- Stack trace showed the kernel32.dll was panicking when it encountered an invalid heap state during a call to free
- Symbol's for the directx dll suggested it was trying to free a texture at time of the abort.
- Turning on every single memory/heap debugging feature that microsoft supplies didn't reveal any earlier issues that might be corrupting the heap.

Oh, and it appears Intel drivers and the "Microsoft Basic Render Driver" don't crash at the same point.
Here is a stack trace from the crash from SMG2 on startup with Intel. It happens right after the warning screen fades out, before the main title screen shows up.

Here's that same crash with "Microsoft Basic Reference Driver" (I had to restart the driver a few times before I could trigger this, it appears to be more stable than intel)
They both appear to be crashing when allocating memory to compile a shader.

And here is a stack trace from peaches castle (At the top of the stairs to the left is the room "How Many Coins?" entering, hitting the box then exiting and repeating usually causes a crash) This one is always appears to be trying to free memory when it crashes.

- Has duplicate Emulator Issues #8836: Revision 4.0-6930 crash on SSBM added
Updated by hosode about 9 years ago
Just a side note, I'm using Intel HD 4600 with the latest drivers on Windows 8.1, and I have not had any crashes with SMG2. Not with latest (November 2015) builds or earlier 2013-2014 builds.
I do believe that there are problems with specific setups, but how much do we know about these crasches circumstance-wise (OS, GPU model, Driver version)?
Updated by waddlesplash about 9 years ago
phire and I were both testing on Windows 10. I don't recall seeing this problem on Windows 8.1 but I don't have a way to test it anymore.

This should be fixed by 4.0-8223 -> https://dolphin-emu.org/download/dev/8212f402d4ff827473ad67d1e6a1c8351e505ce0/
