I'm not on vista, but I have similar issues. I generally play against the AI's and I get regular crashes. Not always, but quite frequently.

This is what I keep seeing in infolog.txt

Code: Select all

Spring 0.75b2 has crashed.
Exception: Access violation (0xc0000005)
Exception Address: 0x007666ff

Those do not appear to be the same crash, however I would not blame vista, as it indicates a general spring bug.

The only issue with spring I can identify that is actually caused by Vista itself is graphics card driver related, and they never generate stacktraces.

Thankyou for the first stacktrace however, and taking the time to translate it into a readable form. It suggests something todo with strings and rendering the tooltip, however I'm unfamiliar with that code, perhaps someone with more experience can suggest a solution?

That last one is the XTA 9 bug. An incorrect value was put in an emit-sfx command on one of the units animation scripts.

Updating to XTA 9.1 or later should correct the crash.

@Tobi: Does that code still crash svn spring or does it generate an error message in the console?

[Tobi]

If it's indeed that arm swatter XTA v9 bug, then SVN Spring will just output a warning in the console/infolog and not crash anymore.

Yay!

I can't seem to be able to find XTA 9.1 anywhere.

Can anyone link it?
