  • OK, thanks for the stack traces everyone, looks like the same issue. I suspect this is an OpenGL driver issue which is why I can't reproduce it.

    There's a new diagnostic build here (previous links are dead now). The reason it crashed before was an unhandled exception being thrown from the renderer - I've changed this for asserts so you should see a check failure instead of a crash. If you get a check failure, paste it here, and click ignore - hopefully you can ignore it and it won't crash. If that seems reliable, I'll just turn off the checks. If it still crashes, a stack trace will be handy again.

    Thanks everyone, this is a really difficult bug, but we'll get to the bottom of it!

  • It should load it automatically if the pdb is next to the EXE.

    Thanks for the reports folks, will try something new soon...

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • We need some way of differentiating from Construct 0.x and Construct 2 - I think just "Construct" would get confusing as hell at this point

  • Thanks everyone, surprisingly good response!

  • OK, well, this really needs to get fixed. No point having a build out that crashes all the time for lots of people.

    If anyone can get a stack trace with the most recent EXEs above, that would be really handy. If it crashes for you and you're technologically inclined, fire up windbg, attach it to Construct's process, get it to crash, then open a stack trace. (You need the .pdbs next to the EXE to get it to load symbols otherwise it's all just memory addresses.) Paste it here and that's really good information to help solve the problem.

  • I've updated the list with expressions added in recent builds, including lerp.

  • Hmm, OK - have a look here and let me know if that fixes it. I'm really hoping that does the trick :-\</p>

  • OK, I think I've got it! I found a nasty double-release of fonts in the layer between plugins and the renderer. Ugly. That would explain R0J0's stack trace and the other crashes.

    If this doesn't fix it I think I'll cry

    Anyways, try downloading these files and pasting over 28.3, and let me know if it works.

  • Hmm... maybe there were multiple causes. Thanks for the stack trace, very handy, will investigate further...

  • [quote:2lsy4eio]Q: What happened to private variables or X feature?

    A: C2 is very young. Features will be added in time.

    Edit: rewording that FAQ...

  • Download Construct 2 public preview 28.3

    Link to release 28.2

    I mainly want to make sure the crash-on-close bug is fixed, since that's a pretty bad one. If it is, great! Some other fixes made it in too.

    Changelog

    • [CHANGE] Can launch the pay-what-you-want dialog from the About dialog
    • [CHANGE] Keyboard input when the keyboard object is present does not reach the browser - e.g. pressing up/down will not scroll the browser window.

    [s:22niv0jg]- [FIX] Crash-on-exit should - hopefully - be fixed (let me know if it works/doesn't work)[/s:22niv0jg] (fixed in 28.4)

    • [FIX] Event wizard list control grouping works in Windows XP now
    • [FIX] Sometimes object expressions in conditions returned 0 (fixes 'compare instance variable' with another instance variable)
