[40d] Crash - HFS related?
« on: October 29, 2008, 05:27:06 pm »

So, my game crashes a set number of turns after the save point.  I was beginning to build a cistern to mix magma and water in, and in doing so, discovered HFS, which is the only point of interest before the crash occurs.

The save is immediately after finding (and walling off) the HFS, so lucky break there.  Left to its own devices, the crash should occur < 1 minute after starting.

Also, you can manufacture vomit at a smelter.  Subsequently removing the smelter spews vomit over a surprising area.

Update: Doesn't crash on my machine at home.  Instead, at the point where it would crash, the King appears disguised as a peasant.

The machine it crashes on is Windows XP.  The machine it runs on is Windows 2000.  There's no difference in the data\init or raw\objects files.

Weird....probably an OS error. Try to reinstall Win2k. If that won't help, check your RAM.
