Loading a game (0.19)

Post by Big-J-Q »

Sometimes when I reload my game, the screen goes black, and a yellow pointer appears. But nothing more.

Then I get an access violation error, here's one of the reports:

RTC Diagnostic file - Wed Jul 17 18:53:37 2002

Error:
an access violation exception.

Stack Dump:
RTC.FreeModuleData();
RTC.RTC_DeInit();
RTC.WinMain();

It's doing exactly what it says on the tin - it's freeing up the data associated with the current module (in preparation for reloading your new game).

Can you please send me a save game file that shows this problem (or instructions on how to recrate it) and I'll have a look as to why it's failing in that routine.

The problem is, that this bug occurs rarely. The next time I try reloading (after restarting RTC!), it works just fine.
