Version: 0.B 673975b, still exists in 2ee6b56
Type: SDL
OS: Windows 7
Issue: On one particular save file, after I load the game it invariably crashes after a few turns. It starts anywhere after five, eight turns of movement, or if I try to sleep (I’m on a bed) it crashes instantly. I didn’t have this problem before; I’ve had this character for a few in game seasons. It doesn’t happen on any of my other saves. If the game hasn’t crashed yet, I can save and exit fine, but otherwise the game automatically exits after I get the error.
I transferred this character to the new release, but the problem still comes up.
Not sure if it helps, but this is the error message.

Not related to solving the issue, but how could I regenerate this character in a new save? I know how to add points to raise skills to an appropriate level, but how would I add bionics and items? Help would be much appreciated here.

That’s a windows error message and doesn’t do us a lot of good. Attaching a debugger would probably be much more effective–if you’re not up for that, post the save and we’ll look into it.
Generally, you can debug up your skills and install the bionics, after debugging 'em in. The menu works just as well to order in items.

Attaching a debugger is fine, is there a specific one for Cataclysm? Again, pardon my ignorance, I’m kind of clueless about this stuff. What should I do?
About uploading the save file, should I include the entire world, or just the specific character’s save?

I think there is like, a command for it? Maybe it was ~. I don’t remember.

Um... no. I think he meant A debugger. I dunno - OllyDBG, IDA Pro, SoftICE. Whatever.

Compress and upload the whole world, and let us know which character to look at when you post it. I tend to use Dropbox and post links as the forum won’t let you attach it directly.

Gah, sorry, I mindlessly committed suicide this morning after I debugged a replica of the character. If the problem recurs, I’ll post here.
