0xC0000005 in ACWIN.EXE error

[MagicGamer]

While testing my game it crashed and this error came up. I spent alot of time on my game importing sprites and backgrounds, i checked the manual for any similar problems but i couldn't find any. This is the message which was displayed:

---------------------------
Illegal exception
---------------------------
An exception 0xC0000005 occured in ACWIN.EXE at EIP = 0x00414ECA ; program pointer is +31, ACI version 2.60.693, gtags (1,180)

AGS cannot continue, this exception was fatal. Please note down the numbers above, remember what you were doing at the time and notify CJ on the Tech forum.


If anyone can help i would be very helpful, thank you.

Did it work before you imported new sprites? Did you changed the player character graphics?

Hmm.. you have triple posted... that other topic won't get moved... locked, I guess then.

Have you imported any really big sprites? Or deleted sprites?

[MagicGamer]

Yes i have, i imported over the character sprites (Over the Roger sprites) and made some new GUI sprites, again over the old ones. I didn't think to try it before i done this as it usually works on my other game :/

i have never made new GUI sprites though.

I did some searching, and found an old thead I was looking for, but the information I needed from it was gone... (It was an image)...

Did you delete any of the standard sprites?

MagicGamer:

Is your game in 800x600 resolution, but your background smaller than 800x600 (e.g. 800x500), so that there is space for a GUI below the scenery?

I got a similar exception when testing this resolution:

The problem should be fixed in the version RC1:

* Fixed crash in 800x600 games if a background smaller than 800x600 was imported.

Yeah that was it, the resoultion seemed to the the problem. For some reason the character sprite was meant for a lower resolution. THank for the help.
