Strange crashes

Post by ilikepie »

I crash quite often, especially when approaching a specific warp point in the Bernards Star system.

Version of vegastrike (The SVN version? the 0.5 download?). Looks like your operating System in windows xp. What specific actions are you performing? What does the crash look like?

I'm running 0.5 straight from SourceForge.

The crash isn't tied to any missions or anything, although I do notice it tends to crash more often when approaching/near a planet and/or coming out of SPEC mode.

Basically what happens is the screen freezes up and Vista gives me a generic "Vega Strike has encountered a problem" message. I'd dig up the error logs but I couldn't quite find them in the maze of folders.

A bit of string for that maze :wink: the stdout.txt and stderr.txt file are in the bin folder with the executables and Dll's .
Fast way to it if you have a short-cut on your desktop right-click --.Open target container i think it's that not in Xp ATM
