Frequent Crashing on Mac OS
« on: February 03, 2021, 04:41:01 am »
Hello,
I play 47.0.04 with and without DFHack. Sometimes during a fortress I get to some point in time when the game crashes. No matter what the game always will crash at this time. This has happened to me on numerous saves and it usually is a game ender. I'd say 50% of my games have ended this way. Sometimes I can delay the crash but quitting before it happens and then un-retiring the fort but it's only a matter of time before it happens again.

I am really not sure what is causing it. It is a segmentation fault and when using DFhack I get this message upon crashing:
[DFHack]# /Users/okelly/Downloads/df_osx 5/dfhack: line 27:  6376 Segmentation fault: 11  DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=./hack/libdfhack.dylib ./dwarfort.exe "$@"

I try canceling all jobs, forcing people to burrows, disbanding all military, etc and I cannot find a solution. It is getting to the point where it is becoming unplayable. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Also, I uploaded the save if anyone can take a look. The crash occurs after a few minutes, it requires no action.

Also here is another save of mine with a crash soon after loading (my fortress before ^):

I started a new fortress and I ran into this again. I uploaded the save here:
https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=15401
It crashes shortly after loading. Please help, I cant play anymore without this happening.

Are you trying to play DF on one of those new Apple M1-based machines?  If so, at least one other person has had problems running DF (although I’m not sure if they were trying to run the MacOS X version or the Windows version and I’m not sure if they were running it under Rosetta or not).  If you’re using an M1-based machine, try running DF under Rosetta.  If that doesn’t work, your only hope is probably to buy Toady One an M1-based machine (or pitch in to help buy him one)...

Really hoping somebody puts this in their signature.

Sounds like save corruption, then...

Does DFHack's "fix/corrupt-equipment" script help?

There was a typo in the siegers' campfire code. When the fires went out, so did the game.

You're doing better than me. Since I upgraded to Big Sur, the game has become a plain white screen on load....

Hav you tried changing the PRINT_MODE? https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Installation#Mac

...I had. But I went back and checked, and found out I'd changed the wrong PRINT_MODE.... So yeah, thankyou. Glad it works again. Thankyou.

No it does not. I switched to playing on my Windows PC with dfhack 47.05 and it is MUCH more stable. It still crashes here and there but I haven't had an "unavoidable" crash yet and I am 8 years in.

The improvement is likely due to some of the other crash fixes in 0.47.05, then. Some fixes (but not all of them) will be applied to old saves that are loaded into 0.47.05, so you might be able to bring over some of your 0.47.04 saves, if you're interested in trying to recover them.

Not sure if this is helpful, but here's the error log from running the save file that causes the crash after a few seconds:
