Summary0004351: While trying to start playing on some worlds, or when loading some save games, reproducible crash
DescriptionAbout 30% of the worlds I create, when I try to start playing with dwarf mode, DF stops responding before loading the embarkation map. Tried multiple times, not sure what causes it, but certain worlds reproducibly won't load. I deleted them all already, but can create a few more til I find another with this issue if that would help.

Also, same issue with trying to load a save game. I had a region that I was able to load the embark for, and save/load a few times, but now crashes repeatably when trying to load the save. I'll attach it.

Ah, and trying it in windowed mode, I see I am getting an error about a corrupt compressed file...

hmm. I'll have to see if the regions are giving me the same issue. I assume not, so these should probably have been separate bugs.

I'm using an SSD if that makes any difference, and haven't had any disk problems with it.

Sorry, should have looked around more first (and played around more to see what the issue was)

Cool, glad you figured out what was causing it.
