Title: Df Hack crashes the game on startup
Post by: Kagerus on April 04, 2022, 05:57:20 am
So i have a following problem. DF hack closes the game after startup i have no idea why.
Below is my stderr log. Can anyone help ? I've tried to turn of Antivirus, changed TWBT
print mode. Even tried to delete the plugin at which it stopped. Everything with no success.

TWBT is often the culprit here, so it's worth trying changing the print mode to 2D and removing the `twbt.dll` file.

Just tried that, unfortunately issue is still present

The error log stops at the reveal plugin, so one thing we could try is to remove all plugin files from reveal on (in alphabetical order). that will at least tell us whether it is a plugin problem at all or whether the real problem is happening sometime later but the error log is getting truncated or something.

Quietust just reminded me that the ruby plugin has been problematic recently due to a dependency that isn't always installed on user machines. Try removing the ruby plugin (or installing libxcrypt-compat as per https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/issues/2023 )

That particular issue was Linux-specific, while this user is running on Windows. Still, it's possible the Ruby plugin might be at fault, just because it comes immediately after "reveal" when sorting the default plugins alphabetically.

Sorry for late answer, but indeed removing the ruby plugin fixed the problem.
Thank you for your help  :D
