Autoreload crashes

#1 Post by qirien »

Since about 6.99.14, autoreload has not been working for me for any games (not even The Question). Here is what happens:
* I press shift-R
* It says "Saving Game"
* It says "Reloading Script"
* Ren'Py quits
* ... Nothing else happens, and I am back at the Ren'Py launcher.

If I run Ren'Py on a project directly on the command line (such as ./renpy.sh the_question), I can see that it is getting a segmentation fault. It doesn't give a stack trace and there are no errors on the console, either. I've tried this with the nightly build and I see the same behavior. I think there's something weird with my setup because it works fine on my other Linux computer. I've attached the
log.txt
(2.39 KiB) Downloaded 54 times
I'm running on Linux using software rendering (not sure if that makes a difference, but it was around the time I started seeing that warning that autoreload stopped working for me).

Any ideas where I can start looking to fix this?

I'm not seeing an error in log.txt, is there a traceback.txt for this?

You know, I think it's actually probably a video card problem on my end, as something else isn't working right, either. After I fix those, I'll post back here if I still have problems.
