Title: Error while trying to dump text to a file
Post by: Akatosh on Sat 29/07/2006 16:40:21
Exception 0x00000000 at EIP=0x00000000,
AGSEDIT v2.71.631, SIP=26

tried to dump everything (checked all those checkboxes) into a dumpD.txt file
it worked after i changed the name to koffeekrisis.txt (game name)
then i dried to dump it to dumpD.txt again and it kept on crashing.

Has anyone else experienced a problem with dumping the game text?

I think AGS crashes when another program has a lock on the file you want to write.
I tested it by opening the dumped file in various programs, then trying to write it again.
It worked fine for notepad (which doesn't lock), but crashed for M$ Word (which does).
