Crash when clicking on Myst book

[dragossh]

I installed DI on another partition (so it shouldn't be a permissions problem), and converted the Myst V ages.
When I click the Myst book in the new K'veer, it gives me a stack dump:

Code: Select all

Exception type: Access violation

Any ideas how I could fix that?

Have you think to remove the files "direboWithAlpha.bik" and "mystWithAlpha.bik" from your "avi" directory ? See Troubleshooting in http://dusty.homeunix.net/wiki/Drizzle# ... vements.22

The troubleshooting information is outdated though - and since Dustin's "wiki" can only be edited by him (kind of opposing the idea of a wiki), I can not even fix it.

The issue is caused by you enabled compatibility mode for Uru, which used to be necessary on Windows 7, but that is no longer the case (Tahgtahv fixed that in the UruExplorer.exe). So, please open the UruExplorer.exe properties and disable compatibility mode, and the issue should go away.

Dustin's wiki seems to be correct:

On Windows 7, Teledahn does not work properly. There are two possible fixes:

* Option 1) Install the newest No-CD patch through UAM.
* Option 2) You can fix that by right-clicking on your "UruExplorer.exe", choosing "Properties", then selecting "Compatibility" and enabling compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3. This however triggers some problems with videos copied from Myst V - so if you converted these ages, you should now remove the files "direboWithAlpha.bik" and "mystWithAlpha.bik" from your "avi" directory.

But perhaps it should mention that Option 1) is the preferred method.

Okay, sorry for that (the "wiki" part still applies, though )
