8 years ago UPDATE: I have found a weird way to make this work, even though it's merely a fix. So I was playing around and accidentally it just started to work! These are the steps I have done:
- Spawn down a ragdoll (I've used Barney, not sure if others work)
- Make it a statue
- Copy it and paste it in the sky
- Then spawn down a ragdoll again (only citizens worked for me) and try to controll it with kinect (c + right click on it and "Control With Motion Sensor)
The problem with this is, that even though you can use Kinect with the ragdoll, it's really unstable. So you can't spawn down anything, can't choose an other tool and can't even go to the menu, because it will crash. I was trying for hours to find the exact steps to reproduce this, so I hope this can help to fix the crash

Details
If I try to use Kinect with Gmod, the game crashes. So if I click on the "Show Video Box" or "Control with Motion Sensor" button it freezes for a few seconds and exits without an error message. The only sign of the crash is the crash file. It says: "The thread tried to read from or write to a virtual address for which it does not have the appropriate access." Here's the crashfile: crashfile.zip I have tried uninstalling every Kinect relevant thing (SDK, Runtime, drivers etc.) then rebooting and reinstalling the SDK and Runtime (1.8, I have also tried 1.6 too) and after that plugging the Kinect in - Gmod crashed again. Addons can't cause the problem, because I have also deleted all of them and it didn't fix it.
Steps to reproduce
By clicking "Show Video Box" in the menu or "Control with Motion Sensor" in a ragdoll's menu. It only worked if the Kinect was functional. If it didn't work (flashing light on it), the crash didn't happen. The buttons were there but didn't do nothing.
