[.9.9.6, Windows XP 32 bit] Game crashes on killing JC

<< < (2/2)

shark20061:
TwoDev unfortunately burned out the first save file (replaying the level 10 times before it gave out), so it's not available.

Polymeron:
I think this is a little more widespread than might seem from this report.

At current, this happens to me whenever I die during any Challenge game on any nonrandom level (Babel, Chained Court, The Wall, and Dis so far). Some details that might help resolve this:
- Bug is highly reproducible so far.
- On normal levels, I get no crash, .mortem as usual.
- Nuking the SMM in Dis also had the same effect.
- The resulting save file is always corrupted and subsequently discarded.
- Seems to be related to this and this.
- Since this started I haven't tried standard games so not sure if the Challenge stuff is relevant. But, the other cases I linked to are also Challenge games.
- I'm running Win7 64bit. Judging from this and other threads OS doesn't seem to be a major factor.
- Attaching the error report (all cases seem to be documented therein).

This is making all my challenges ultimately unplayable... At this point I think I'll reinstall DoomRL in another folder, move my player info there, and see if this continues to reproduce.


EDIT: Reinstall did not help. Also I got this again in a normal level this time.
Looks like it's no more challenges for me... :(

The bug you have is already fixed, and different from the one in the OP of this thread.

You are scoring kills while having a weapon equipped in AoPc (probably the chainsaw for the free zerk).  Make sure you do NOT equip any weapons during the challenge.  If you do pick up the chainsaw, you need to unequip right away.

Explanation here.

Polymeron:
Sorry for littering the thread then... Thanks a lot for the workaround!
