[0.18.26] Crash setting up freeplay game: "EntityMapGenerationTask::generateEntities"

Post by TropheusJay »

not sure if this is the same issue, but in 0.18.26 on a windows 10 pc with modern hardware. im just going to quote my post on the discord.

"so im getting a very consistent crash on newest experimental (0.18.26) with mods. havent tried without mods because they are probably the cause. when in the world generation screen with preview on the game crashes after a few minutes and might be linked to adjusting the moisture bias slider. dont know, might just be a coincidence. the game crashes, and steam says im still playing. so i open task manager, nothing loads, and a few seconds later the whole computer freezes and bluescreens. stopcode is DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION. will provide log if someone tells me the directory.
it doesnt bluescreen until task manager is opened."

this has happened to multiple people using the same mod pack. it is not 100% repeatable though because we were eventually able to create a world. log is attached.

according to someone on the discord, it is a c++ error and not related to the mods.

I split the topic because you don't have 2009 model of MacBook or any Mac for that matter, and therefore you don't have the same issue.

Can you still reproduce this crash? At least with any amount of frequency.

If so, can you please post the set of mods (zip and upload them somewhere like dropbox/google drive/one drive) and post a link here?
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
