Unread post Swath Crashing
In the last few days I have been having Swath crash as a sub-space message comes in.
An error pop-up comes up asking if I want to send report to microsoft.

I was told by a fellow player that he too was experiencing this same thing.

I could not figure what we had in common because I use XP and he was using Win 2000.
I got a brain storm .. I think I know what it might be ..
I figured it had to be a winsock error most likely .

So I went to http://majorgeeks.com/WinSock_XP_Fix_d4372.html
for a repair & so far so good ... I'll do a follow-up tomorrow and let you know it was fixed or not.

my fingers are crossed in hopes this IS the fix needed.

I've reverted back to SWATH 1.8.3 after using the latest version of SWATH and having issues. I haven't had problems since going back. The main problem I ran into was the screen appearing to freeze.

to Prom and anyone else ;

Stein has asked if you have crash issues with swath (any version but prefers current)
that if it crashes , look in same directory as your game_name.cfg for a game_name.log
zip that file and send it to him @ stein@swath.net

That way any errors can be fixed.

I've just talked with Stein .. he said any logs from the "buffer full" error , after it crashes
to please send him so this may be taken care of for the next release.
All help would be appreciated.

Maybe the Swath team should try a beta release to fix some of the problems. Testers are more willing to help out and report bugs when they get a free program out of it.
