Error with Score viewer

Lord_Farin · July 15, 2011, 08:46:56 AM

I just tried to copy/paste a few times into and from the CW2 Score viewer code mission name field, and every time I did so, the Flash plug-in crashed. FYI, I use FF5 on Win7 Ultimate x64.

Hmm.. I'm not the only one after all.

After trying copy/paste into the code mission name field I also got a Flash plug-in crash (see attached image). After waiting for about 1 minute FireFox 5.0 started responding again.

Edit: at the same time the YouTube video I was playing crashed as well....

Ah.. but that is not the same error I get. My browser just hang.

I first thought to experience the same as MadMag - a stall. FF went irresponsive. But then, when I tried it again, I was also doing some other stuff simultaneously, and after a minute or so, FF reported that the plug-in had crashed, and started responding again. So maybe you just weren't patient enough ;)

I'm never patient with programs hanging :)

Chrome has it sandboxed, thus it just errors out. Firefox doesn't do this and therefor crashes..

Chrome: 1
Firefox: 0

As for the map viewer, there SERIOUSLY needs to be an HTML version of it. I don't like Flash too much because it crashes (and uses a lot of RAM).

The Flash plug-in crashes, not FireFox.

However, this causes FF to hang for about a minute. Most people aren't patient enough (I am only because I know it's only a minute) to wait and consider it crashing. But indeed, FF does not crash.

On another note, i was unable to provoke any sort of crash with going copy-pasta crazy using all kinds of weird chars and letters

I am also experiencing no problems when using Chrome. It seems to be something about the nature of the FF plug-in.

TP, you don't even make any sense. IE gets -1.
