DF froze up my computer when I tried to save after getting a possessed mood.  The save apparently didn't finish or something, as I have an empty "current" folder, the game won't recognize the region1 folder as a save folder.  I'm glad I have a seasonal backup, although apparently it didn't backup when I changed from spring to summer...

I suspect that it might be messing up because of some strange interaction with Winamp (I had issues in 38c when winamp was active), but I hoped the new version of DF would have corrected that... DF's sound is turned off in the init file, Winamp is the latest update, my drivers are the most recent ones available...
Anything else you need to know?  I can upload the partial region1 save if you tell me where/how.

[Toady One]

Huh, that'll be hard to catch unless it repeats from your backup.  The partial saves don't generally help with these, since it saves out compressed blocks only periodically, and you don't really catch a relevant spot looking at those.

Is it possible the possession in the event log had something to do with it?  It happened about 30 seconds before I saved.

Oddly enough, the non-functional region1 folder seems to only be missing part of the world.sav - dunno how helpful that info is, but the backup world.sav plays fine if I swap it in.

[Qmarx]

It happened again.  This time it took down the computer entirely instead of just freezing - it turned itself off. 

On the plus side, I have a world.sav file in the current folder this time.  It's a different size from the region1 folder... would either of those be useful?  I'm going to try incrementing up to the crash point...

I wasn't running winamp at this point, and I didn't have any moods...

[Qmarx]

And a third time.  This time it froze (like in the first case) instead of resetting (like the second).  Hopefully being able to replicate it like this means I'm closing in on the bug...

x4No error log data.  Interesting...

Also interesting: the /current folder has art_image-0.dat as well as world.sav in it this time.  The world.sav in /current is also only 80 kb smaller than world.sav in /region1.

I suspect it might be possible that alt-tabbing during a save might be the cause.  Let me check...

[Toady One]

Copying over just an old world.sav will desync the world from the rest of the files and more trouble can crop up.  The only thing that would really shed light on the situation is an early save that goes bad after running a bit, but that'll be difficult to come by.

Hmm... unfortunately, I'm not entirely convinced I continued entirely from the backup, instead of the mixture (80-90% sure?).  I have the first autosave backup, so I'll just restart from there again, and see how it goes.

I'm not sure if this is a symptom or cause, but windows really disliked one of the glitched save files I kept in case you wanted it.  I got a dialog box telling me the file on disk was corrupted.  I ran chkdsk, of course, but I suppose it's possible that my HD just had a bad sector and it was a horrible coincidence... or perhaps the crash was bad enough for file corruption.


EDIT: Oh... I'm so embarrassed - I forgot to say this world was generated in 39b, then ported over.  That could be the issue.
DOUBLE EDIT: No it isn't.  Still freezing in 39c native worlds.

[Qmarx]

And... it's still doing it in 39d (albeit in a world generated in 39c) (just lost a fey immigrant leatherworker to it).  I did find out something that's potentially useful, however.  The crashes on saving are consistently in the "cleaning" stage of the save process (that is to say, every time I see it crash while saving, the window says it's cleaning).

Although I cannot reproduce the crash, I *do* have a save that was made within a minute before the crash happening.  The timeframe is very narrow - between a stockpile cancellation and a single quern mandate being finished, so it's possible you might be able to do something with it.

[Toady One]

What state is this world in?  Was an old world file copied in from elsewhere?  Was this a new world?  And you reload that save you have and it doesn't crash now?

[Qmarx]

It's a world generated in 39c and copied into 39d after about two seasons.  Reloading doesn't repeat the crash (it also doesn't repeat the fey mood, so the circumstances are different). 

I'm not sure what you mean about "state".  The save process never got to the point where anything was overwritten, so I have the save from extremely shortly before it crashed and burned.

I've only had two moods in 39 (39b and now 39d), and the game didn't complete saving after either of them.  If you like, I'll try forcing a mood with Dwarf Companion, and check to see if it will save then.



Forcing a mood (with DF companion), doesn't cause this to repeat.  Blecchk!
