So I'm trying to export my player and I keep getting the attached Runtime error message, which is followed by the drod.exe has stopped working message.

I have also gotten the same message a few times in the last week when exiting the game. Below are the lines from my drod.err file from the last week. Nothing from today from exporting the player.

Any suggestions? I'm heading out of town in the morning and will be using my onsite laptops, so I'd like to port my progress on EP over to it.

Possibly another instance of this bug.

Workaround rather than fix, but you can copy the five user .dat files (data.dat, hold.dat, player.dat, save.dat, text.dat) to the new laptop and things just work. That approach doesn't allow a merge though, just replacement.

Sorry for the late reply. I'd like to fix the crash happening here. If you still have the .dat files around that cause this issue, would you please upload them somewhere and PM me a link? Then I'll see if I can reproduce it.

Just installed 5.1.0.6345
but exporting my "Beethro" player file crashes the game.
other exports work just fine.

I check the .err file, but that's clean.

I'll PM a link to my .dat files

Edit: maybe also relevant

So do I.

Nothing in drod.err or drod.log.

Best wishes,

This may be fixed in 5.1.1 by virtue of the memory optimizations made. May I request this to be re-tested?
