I discovered how to do a micromacro.exe crash (Windows message about illegal operation)
Create file called (example)

Code: Select all

2.enDaily_Xaveria-FLCamp-my copy
And put it in rom\waypoints catalog. It's a file without extension, doesn't matter what file contains, may be empty as well. This is just example. I done some testing, it seems that micromacro.exe will crash when we put a file without extension to this catalog, but some other special conditions about filename must be met to have a crash.

Nice find. Turns out it was caused by a buffer overflow in getDirectory(). I've fixed it, but won't be uploading it to the site just yet (non-critical, easily avoidable, not enough changes since 1.01 to warrant updating). If you really need a copy, you can either PM me or compile your own copy (SVN contains the fixed source).

To avoid the crash, don't use anything more than a 16-character extension.

"error in memory reading" errors should be fixed in rev 689.
