Not sure if this has been covered, my apologies if it has and this is something trivial. But anyway, I've got a strange problem. Revision 60 and now 61 (fresh upgrade) both seem to do this. Basically I can open up TWGS (sever is offline at that point) and then without starting the server I immediately close TWGS and get one of those annoying "This program has performed an illegal action blah blah" errors. The strange thing is that if I open TWGS, start the server and then immediately shut it back down THEN quit, I don't get the error. It only happens if I open and then close TWGS straight away without ever starting the server. Here's the details, for whatever that's worth; "WGS caused an invalid page fault in module TWGS.EXE at 0167:0040a49d. Registers: EAX=01640f08 CS=0167 EIP=0040a49d EFLGS=00010207 EBX=00000001 SS=016f ESP=0163fecc EBP=01640ec8 ECX=01640f34 DS=016f ESI=01208de0 FS=3fb7 EDX=01208de0 ES=016f EDI=01217620 GS=0000 Bytes at CS:EIP: 50 83 c4 f4 53 56 89 4d f8 89 55 fc 8b f0 bb 02 Stack dump: " Any ideas why this would happen? I've only just noticed it, and besides this everything works just fine from what I can tell and I've had no other problems whatsoever. Is there an obvious file corruption that might case this? Has anyone else had this problem? Again it persisted after upgrading from rev. 60 to 61, if that means anything. I'd appreciate any insights. |

The same thing has happened since at least 55, if you dont actually start the server and close TWGS it will give an error. |

Oh really? Well okay then, that certainly alleviates some fears I had about data corruption. So I take it there's no ill effects from this and it's just something I can dismiss as an annoyance? Honestly I have no problem with it, I just thought maybe something was seriously wrong or that I'd trashed a file somehow. Thanks for the heads up. |

Huh, never had that problem. I always have mine start up when I start the program. I'll pass it along to JP for something else to look at if the instability is fixed. |

So by that last post am I to infer that I'm the first person to actually report this bug on the forum if it's been around for that long? Wow. Do I get a prize? [:D] Thanks again for the info! |

I posted this in the .60 posting but no one responded! Same thing still happening. I did a fresh install to version .60 not an upgrade and it seems people are getting dropped to the main game menu where you choose a game. This is only happening when they are chatting in fedcom. I had it happen to me several times. I am not sure what exactly is being typed when it happens. Anyone else notice this? |

Goose - the problems you are describing have been happening in the past several versions. This is what we are trying to fix. It hasn't just been a problem while on fedcom, though. |

I'm sorry, I should have been clearer. I experienced it on fedcom, but others have said it's happening often. |

Upgraded to .61, it's still happening to people at least 3-4 times a day while using there 1500 turns. |

Is it just upgraded games or fresh bangs under .61? |

It's an upgraded game that was originally installed in .60. |
