1.0 Black Screen of death after recalling from Breeding Pits

[DeathSarge]

Was doing as the title suggests, but the game went into an infinite loading screen and then crashed to desktop. Tried loading it back up and got a black void where the map should be. Image is attached.

Can I see the savefile please? (the whole folder I'm afraid)

[DeathSarge]

How do I go about getting the save folder? Or rather, where is it?

[darkgod]

your home/T-Engine/4.0/tome/save/foo/

[DeathSarge]

Is there a way I can send the folder to you without it being in many little pieces?

[darkgod]

Zip it and put it on mediafire or such

Thar it be!

Any known fix for this yet? It's been happening to me maybe once in every five or so characters. Usually around levels 20-25.

[Delkyn]

Has anyone found a working fix for this yet? It has started to happen to nearly every character I make. I don't know if that is because I have started making it to Dreadfel/The East more often thus giving it more time to happen, or if the problem is just getting worse. I should note that this can happen at any point in the game, not just Breeding Pits.

The same problem just happened to me here: http://forums.te4.org/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=36956

Me too. Want more save files DG? There's another one in evouga's thread & I could send mine if it helps.

Just got the level loading hang again, this time loaded gdb and grabbed a stack trace. Will attempt to leave it in this state for a while in case there's other data to collect.
