| Summary | 0005567: DEP Crash | ||||
| Description | Was in the second year of a new fortress, first one in the first world generated with this version of DF. Game just randomly locked up, nothing particular was happening that I remember, then when it crashed it said that a Windows service called DEP (Data Execution Prevention) had killed DF for fear that it was a malicious program. After some investigation I tried to add DF to an exception list for DEP, but Vista told me that it couldn't add DF to that list, no reason given. I guess this is more of a Vista flaw than a DF one, but I thought I'd mention it anyways. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | I have no idea. I can't reproduce it because my save file was deleted. The world remains, but that is it. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

DEP crashes almost always happen when you'd otherwise get a crash from trying to execute data as code (normally from stack corruption). Adding a DEP exception for DF wouldn't fix the crash, only change it from a DEP crash into another kind of crash. |

Reminder sent to: Hound Are you using the vanilla version of the game or a third-party pack? Were you using any utilities such as Dwarf Therapist? What PRINT_MODE is set in init.txt? |
|
|
I am using the total vanilla version, no mods or anything. Literally just downloaded it, unpacked it and started it up. The only thing I could find mentioning print in init.txt was this: PARTIAL_PRINT:NO:2 Dunno if that helps. |

|
So you're using the Legacy version? Try switching to the SDL version. Please reopen this report if you can find a way to reproduce the crash. |
