Have you experienced crashes in Myth II 1.7?

After 1.7 was released, a few people (who were all PC users) from the MWC forums have mentioned that they sometimes would experience crashes on 1.7.

We would like to fix these crashes for 1.7.1. However, I haven't been able to get more information (such as a film from a game where such a crash happened). If anyone has any such films, or any further information on the crashes, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

1.7 is nice. I havent experienced on reg map.
just on plugin map. that has dead link.
btw object limits should have more.
400 monster max, 1024projectile max is too small.
myrd plz update. we need 4000 monster max at least. and 16384 projectile is required.
some big map has limit of problem. and mazz watcher hell fire is always tend to 1024. it makes some bug.

Generally it's not an issue of whether it can be done, but whether it will break everything if it is done :)

So not for a 1.7.x release I think.

In Windows 7 it freezes after every netgame, dunno about single player, if you press esc a few times it dumps you to the desktop so it aint realy frozen but only shows what is essentialy a screen shot of the last second of play.

This post is quite old but still at the top of the list. If no one figured it out, 1.7.1 solves the issues of the freezing last moment qwarqa describes.

No crashes, but I`ve noticed a few issues; late in a game, if loading a saved game, LPGR`s will no longer appear that were running prior to the save and save load, and LPGR`s for MONS swapped with artifacts will do the same. I haven`t tested with 1.7.1 yet, but will post the results as soon as I make it that far into the map again, roughly an hour of play testing, even with a health cheat on, UGH!!

Why don't you use 1.7.1 on your home computer?

Yea that makes little sense.... why update only one/two machines you frequent? Do you not care about bugs when you're playing at home, but do when you're playing abroad?
