AoT had a Fatal Crash

[MegaScientifical]

Something about PNG and stuff. Here's the end of my Console.log, which has the error from the text box in it.

Code: [Select]

One time thing?

Edit: I actually didn't try to open after that. Seems to be continuing.

Hmmm, seeing this made me think you run XP:

Code: [Select]

bitmapPng.cc @ 80) Error reading PNG file:
Because if you haven't noticed, it is a .cc not a .png and this is an error I have discovered to happen alot in XP, if you're running XP, then now you know. If not, ha ha!

Well, yes XP, but I think that you're saying it's reading a .cc as a .png. From the looks of it, it's just telling which file was trying to read .png.

[BanishedLetters]

it's just telling which file was trying to read .png.

That right there makes no sense. English please?

Argh. I think the message is telling which file tried to open a .png.

.cc is a C++ extension, so it's to do with the engine coding.

[BanishedLetters]

So it's the engine itself?

Pretty much. Or you have a faulty PNG file.

Exactly, I didn't think people who didn't get that would bother posting here. :/ Stupid, as always.

I wasn't doing anything with PNG files. All I have done is script that never does crap to actual files. It's some error that came up of its own. And you suggest it's happened before to others. I don't know what was causing this, but dumping a clean version of the game over the pre-existing game worked.

Like I said, faulty PNG file. Even if you didn't touch the files, resintalling proved that it was the PNG file and indeed not your scripts.

Actually, reinstalling didn't work. When I reinstalled over the old files, it still happened. I had to install it in a different folder, then move the files to my original folder and let it mass overwrite.

Either way, my main point is: Any idea how it could have happened? Even if it's just a computer being stupid, seems like an annoyingly simple problem if all it requires is a broken .png.
