Jimlau 0 Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) Not sure what changed, but now I can't save a project. Even when I open it and don't make any changes and try to save, it crashes. Any idea why this could have started happening? Other projects can be saved just fine. I have Version 2021.06 (Build 041, 64bit).

scook 4,208 Posted June 28, 2021 Any issues with an Early Access build should be reported in the appropriate early access thread. In this case "Crash" by itself is not very meaningful. If there is an error message, this should be reported. If there is a crash dump, make a mention of it as it may be requested for review. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It crashes in the last 2 versions (2021.04, Build 175) and even X3. There is no error message. Not sure on a dump file. Where would it be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scook 4,208 Posted June 28, 2021 So this is not EA release specific, no need to post in that thread WRT crash reporting in general see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scook 4,208 Posted June 28, 2021 From the link above (emphasis added) Quote Sending the dump file to Cakewalk for analysis Once you have the dump file you can put it on a share like dropbox, google drive etc. Next, log a problem report case with Cakewalk and include the link to the dump file. If a Cakewalk staff member has requested info you may also PM the dump file link to them directly this way. Note: Dump files may include personally identifiable data so please do not post links to them publicly in the forums or elsewhere to protect your privacy.

Noel Borthwick 3,347 Posted June 28, 2021 Well if you don't get a crash dialog what do you mean by crash? If you get a crash dialog it will list the dump file name. Post a screenshot or video of what you see when you save. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
