Game sometimes crashes with Fatal Error (Screenshots)Mr_Bee10/17/2009 - 09:32

Sometimes the game crashes so that I have to completely restart it. I have included two Screenshots of the error message, see them below:

To be fair, this error happens very sporadically, I only have experienced it twice so far (and have played through all the levels once). That is still two times too many though. Will there be a new version without this error?

EDIT: This error occurred specifically upon loading/starting a new level, at the screen where the game displays the level's name. Normally it will continue after a few seconds, but here it just freezes and when I return to Windows with ALT-TAB, I see that error.

Dunno, I see it sometimes when either a program works too hard or runs out of memory. If you have played it for a long time, then that may happen.

Usually, you have the same problem as someone else, so I'd suggest browsing the forum first.

That would mean that there is a bug in the software, possibly a memory leak.

Your answer is a failure, yes. Because there has been no proper fix for this problem yet, as it is quite obviously an error in the code of World of Goo.

Oh, really? Failure?
Did you actually SEARCH the forum, Bee?
Have you patched WoG yet? Huh?

I am using version v1.30 (on Windows XP). As far as I know, there is no officially released version with a higher version number.

Sorry about that, man. I don't know if that's true, but you could try E-mailing Kyle and Ron.
