Summary 0001247: DEHACKED with no trailing new line in a WAD causes game to crash on start
Revision 2013-01-12 13:53 by Zalewa
Description If DEHACKED lump is present in a WAD, and this lump ends with a "Text" patch, and this "Text" patch doesn't end with a trailing new line then the game is almost certain to crash. The crash doesn't occur all the time, but it occurs on most attempts to start the game.

I'm uploading the offending WAD and a patch that fixes the problem. I'm not sure if the change made by the patch is the correct way to fix the issue but the game doesn't crash anymore.

This problem occurs on Zandronum 1.0 and on changeset "3612 (a0f56d2944ca)" from the bitbucket repo (https://bitbucket.org/Torr_Samaho/zandronum/commits/a0f56d2944ca49657ca9e7526fd1d3218f38019c)
