Update your OS ffs.

permission issues?

Run this program from your spring 93 folder.


Disclaimer... don't be a frigging moron by running it in your root C:\

It sets the current folder and all sub-folders to be writable by "Everyone".
Command gets run in admin mode:
Edit:
Fucking XP... The above program won't do anything.

Ok, open up windows command line as administrator, and navigate to your spring 93 folder, then run this command in that folder: (ICACLS doesn't work in XP, but CACLS does)

Hi Senna!

What you need is a debugger. Download this:
http://www.ollydbg.de/odbg110.zip
and unzip to any folder. Run ollydbg.exe

Choose File-->Open spring.exe
Wait a minute while the debugger analyzes the executable
Choose Debug-->Run

When the crash occurs, you will see a message at the bottom of the debugger window "Access violation" etc
Choose View-->Call stack
In the call stack window, right-click and choose "Copy to Clipboard"-->"Whole table"

Then paste the table here. Good luck!

No, not any file. You must copy the contents of the "Call stack" window in the debugger:
In the call stack window, right-click and choose "Copy to Clipboard"-->"Whole table"
Did you do that? Then paste (Ctrl+V) here in the forum.

If it does not work you can start by telling what happens when you do
Debug-->Run
in the debugger. Does the debugger print any message at the bottom?

this one?

Yes, and does the debugger print anything at the bottom after Debug-->Run? (Access violation in my picture below)

As you see in the call stack there is "RPCRT4" at the top.

This could indicate that it crashed in RPCRT4.DLL.

The dll file could be broken, or external interference by some other program such as antivirus caused it to fail.

Anyway, test again and see if you always have "RPCRT4" at the top of the call stack when the access violation occurs.

Spring also doesn't run anymore on my good old Athlon 3000+:

how to fix it?

i dont have any antivir installed, also have windows firewall off, all firewall its on off

i guess you've to install service pack 3?!

bibim, which os/patch level do you have?

On this system, Windows 2000 (5.00.2195 SP4), why?

a gdb backtrace really would help...

@jk:

maybe some cpu feature is enabled that isn't supported on athlon in the buildslave libs? (for example devil/boost/libpng/...?)

well yesterday i tryed all the ways posible, still not working, it maybe need an pc upgrade, well spring was good and fun, seems now i cannot play it anymore, goodbye spring
