************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Hi. Thanks for reporting!

Does this always happen? Or was it a one off?

Did you already try re-installing?

Could you tell me the following:

-Your operating system
-Your game version
-Your screen resolution

best wishes,
Vic

I am getting the same issue. Windows 10 1280x1024 Version 1.06.00

Hi Walt,
Sorry for the late reply.
Thanks for Win version + screen res.

But does this happen often, all the time or only on rare occasions?

I am asking because I am having trouble replicating the issue.

Do you have any windows-based DPI set by any chance?

And are you 100% sure about your screen resolution? is it your windows resolution, or your in-game resolution? and if the latter is there a difference between windows res and game res?

best wishes,
Vic

For the case its intermittent i have already added some fallback code for the next version in case this error reproduces.

But I would still like to get to the bottom of this.

The Prefs window really needs the 1280 pixels of width... so there must be something thats off with this specific case... could it be you are playing in windowed mode on an actual 1280x1024 windows resolution?
