Matrix Games Forums

Just got this crash:

I've had the same problem.

Running your mod, Ice? Something could have changed.

These errors only occurred after the 1.9.5.6 Beta was installed. The AI Improvement Mod was tested in a variety of games with 1.9.5.5 prior to Alpha Release once my changes had stabilised ... with no errors.

The crash was quite obviously new in this version, I mostly wondered if it crashes with/without your mod.

Also experiencing this crash, and I'm not using Ice's mod, just the extended mod.

I have the same crash, but only when loading a save. Playing with DW Extended as well.

I've uploaded Cauldyth_July19_Crash1.dwg to the FTP site, which produces this error after a few seconds of running. The savegame comes from 1.9.5.5.

I'm using the Ext Mod. The crash has happened several times now. Not always at the same date.
Is there a log or dump that get's generated during crashes, or just the text I've already posted?

Yeah I've had a couple of these crashes now as well. This seems like a showstopper for the rest of the weekend until Matrix can fix it when they are back at work on Monday.

Yeah, gonna have to revert to the previous patch

Steam can be useful as a backup for somewhat buggy beta patches

Good thought, just opted out of the Beta this time.

Have a look in C:\Users\<logon>\Documents\My Games\Distant Worlds Universe. {Win 7 location, but it is in the 'My Games' directory}
In earlier versions, a crash log (DW_CrashDump.txt) use to show up in version's save directory.

I guess the crash dumps did not move with the save location, so look in:

%APPDATA%\Code Force Limited\Distant Worlds

And inside the folder with the version number.

It should only say what you already posted, though.

Still crashing with this error code even after rolling back to 1.9.5.5.

Wow, strange. I haven't had any problems at all since I rolled back.
