I have a problem with the standard savegame dialog.
As long as there are no saved games yet and I click on the scrolling button the game crashes with this message:

---------------------------
Illegal exception
---------------------------
An exception 0xC0000005 occured in ACWIN.EXE at EIP = 0x00435551 ; program pointer is +6, ACI version 2.56.612, gtags (1,9)

Can someone help me?

I tried this out but was unable to make it crash.

Which scroll arrow did you click, the up or the down one? What resolution are you running at? Any other information that might help?

Biff

I'm running on 320x240.

I could be important that this crash doesn't happen any more when there are entries in the list.

There don't appear any arrows. My windows looks like this and the crash happens when I click on the red marked area.

Does anyone else have this problem?

I deleted all my save games so I had an empty list, but it wouldn't crash when I clicked the red area.

The bug appears for me in AGS 2.56c
exception: 0xC0000005
EIP: 0x0004365C7
pointer: +6
gtags (0,9)

ACI: 2.56.626

(Global script line 66) near SaveGameDialog() call.


Yes, it happens when there are no saved games listed. And I noticed one thing. If there are saved games listed and the edit box is empty AGS fills it with the save's name currently highlighted. This might be a crash reason. Seems like it tries to display some memory area, because once it displayed some ASCII symbols instead of crash. Oh, and when I opened the dialog and first clicked on the area where the savegames would be listed, next clicked on arrows arean it doesn't crash! :P

Ahh yes, when I do that I get it too.

For some reason the initial selected item setting on the listbox is being initialized to 1, when in fact there are no items. Clicking in the listbox makes it correct this, but the scroll bars don't check and try to scroll down to display it.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll get it fixed.
