Here's a way for you to find out where it's screwing up: In the load functions, add a log or bug line right before each step the game takes in loading a character, also add one into other functions that are called, even if it's just one at the beginning of the function. For example: bug( "Reading character name.", 0 );
Compile, boot and try to connect. When it crashes, check your log file for the last step it was trying to do, and there's where the problem is. --- RogueDragon @ A Merging of Fates MUD telnet://mud.merging.org:5454 icq: 2072355 (inactive atm), yim: roguedragon, aim: roguedragon69 --- Windows - Where do you want to go today?
