VC++ Error on Exit

[wesy]

I'm running Beta 1 of the x64 version of Win7. Overall it runs great! I know x64 Vista is not "officially" supported so i'm sure that win7 x64 Beta is "definitely not supported" .

The Dialog Title: Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library

Text: Debug Assertion Failed!

Program:...Game\Crown of Glory Emperor's Edition\Crown of Glory II.ext
File:thrdcore.cpp
Line:830

For information on how your program can cause an assertion failure, see the Visual C++ documentation on asserts

----------------------------
I've attached the dxdiag file

thanks!

Looks like an assertion is also failing for me on exit. Im on windows xp btw.

This one thing is scaring me as well.

I guess MS will drop support for XP/Vista in the near future and some older games won't work with Windows 7 anymore.

Yep, also got a weird behavior, where the game closes (on "exit") it's very quick, there's no "exit" screen and instead I've got a "ding" as if some software error occured, but no message/window. I'm under XP too.

I have same problem, same OS. I know it is not officially supported, but I thought you'd like to know

Grouping XP/Vista together may be in error.

It is likely support for XP will drop much sooner than Vista.

But since the core of Windows 7 is Vista there isn't much worry about compatability in the near future.

I get this too.

Same here with XP-Pro and Service Pack #2. The TaskBar is popped up too.

There does seem to be an error that comes up on a minority of systems when the game is shutting down.&nbsp; This happens in Windows code during memory deallocation, and only seems to happen on perhaps 1 in 15 systems.&nbsp; Memory still seems to be deallocating properly after thread termination, so it's a cosmetic annoyance, but seems to be entirely harmless.

No way to get some log or stg to help "debug" this ? Harmless or not it's a bug ! [:'(]

I'm getting same error on Xp sp3. Seems to be benign, though.&nbsp;

[ericbabe]

It's possible to fix; we did fix this bug in the FOF version of the engine.&nbsp; It's caused by something in the deallocation process being deallocated out-of-order.&nbsp; It might be easier to just tell Windows to stop announcing that particular deallocation warning.

I stopped it from happening here by taking my AVG virus entirely out of memory. In Services I unloaded the three AVG programs that run. That took care of it. It exits with no exclamation beep and no other weirdness. [:)]

There is still no exit screen though, if the game has one. [&:]
