crash

Post by Arianna »

Whenever I download new capaign, it das not work. Game says "illegal character found" and crash down. Or, sometimes, the scenario begin and in one while, whole programe crash. This also happened in official campaign, in Rise of Wesnoth, and not only once (at least 10 times on the same place. When one of my units was about to change to walking corpse). I am using windows vista, may this be the problem? I reinstalled game once, now I am trying it again...I will see. But if there is something else I can do, I would like to know it...thx.

Which version do you play?

The walking corpses crash is that in Temple of the Deep? I fixed a bug there a while ago guess 1.3.2 or 1.3.3 should have the fix, not sure whether it's been fixed for 1.2.x. (I don't have time to search at the moment :( )

Could you also post the output of the stderr.txt (I think it's next to wherever Wesnoth is installed).

Um... I smell incompatibility with 1.2.x addons running in 1.3.x.
(BTW, perhaps stdout.txt too?)

walking corpse

Post by rincewind »

When I installed Wesnoth 1.2.4, rewriting the old version, I kept getting similar bug. The game wouldnt even start, an error message relating to walking corpse appearead (including the words "illegal character", as far as I remember) and the game crashed.

This got OK once I installed the game into a new folder, rather than replacing old files. So try to make a "brand new" installation of the game. That should work.
