Just replace your original Maps::changeMap function with the following. That's it, nothing more or less. Changes are in bold.

Maps.cpp

Code:

void Maps::changeMap(Player* player, int mapid, int pos){
	[b]if(mapid == 999999999 || mapid < 0){
		mapid = player->getMap();
		pos = 0;
	}[/b]
	removePlayer(player);
	player->setMap(mapid);
	player->setMappos(pos);
	player->setType(0);
	Pos cpos;
	if((unsigned int)pos<info[mapid].Portals.size()){
		cpos.x = info[mapid].Portals[pos].x;
		cpos.y = info[mapid].Portals[pos].y;
	}
	else if(info[mapid].Portals.size() > 0){
		cpos.x = info[mapid].Portals[0].x;
		cpos.y = info[mapid].Portals[0].y;
	}
	else{
		cpos.x = 0;
		cpos.y = 0;
	}
	player->setPos(cpos);
	MapPacket::changeMap(player);
	newMap(player);
}

I got sad watching everyone reinvent the wheel, so I am releasing this simplicity. Cheers. =]

Look at the bold closely and see what happens if you change something in there to make it teleport you to like say henesys(100000000)
(BTW, this is about one of the easiest things to make and I laughed when they released those other scripts to fix invalid pointer) .

What are you talking about? The 4th job portal works fine. If you do not have the latest version of the DB, it might not, but I already stated to UPGRADE BEFORE posting bugs. The new versions are not there to introduce new instability, they're there to fix bugs and add STABILITY. Cheers.

I still get the problem, changing regular maps, not just to map 999999999.

Re: [Release] Actual Simple fix for Invalid pointer when entering some portals

I get the problem without changing maps at all. Just stay in a big map and BOOM, invalid pointer. Happens when we use some skills and equips too. Even when we fame. I really hate that error..
