Trouble loading
« on: May 23, 2008, 10:37:00 pm »

For some reason when ever I try to load a certain saved fort the whole game just stops, then a message box pops up asking if i'd like to end the program. All my other saves work is there anyway I can save this one I really liked it.

Try to give some additional information, like what version are you playing, what was goin on in the game, what is the exact message the box delivers you. Maybe someone will then be able to help you X_x

It's latest version it was nothing special just a normal little fortress about 26 dwarves, a brook, a chasm...

the message was a windows thing that has the, "dwarfort.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close" then has "Send error report" and "Don't Send" and "debug" buttons

This all happens on the screen that says "Loading game..."

Do you have the save?  I can take a look at it and see where it's breaking down.  I'll need the region folder in some kind of zip/rar/7z, and any new objects that were added to the raw folder.  If it's less than 20 megs, you can send it to toadyone@bay12games.com.  You can also try The Dwarf Fortress File Depot which has a special section for bugged saves.
