hello everyone, i played hedgewars with some friends since a while but well on some point i encountered a problem that is on 0.9.15 but also now on the 0.9.16 version.

when i want to change the landscape the game closes completly (in the landscape corner there is also nothing to see it is blank, so as soon as i click there i crash or if i try to start the game. deinstalling it and then delete any registry key with hedgewars in it not helps after a fresh reinstall, so what problem could it be?

- Windows 7, 32 bit
- Comodo Firewall
- Avast Antivirus
- ATI Radeon HD 5670 using latest driver (11-8_vista32_win7_32_dd_ccc_ocl)

Resolution 1680x1050

this is the video stuff in my hedgewars.ini

[video]
resolution=1600x900
fullscreen=false
quality=5
stereo=0

[frontend]
effects=true
fullscreen=false
width=800
height=600
sound=true
music=true

Game is installed in: C:\Program Files\Hedgewars 0.9.16
Userfolder is in: C:\Users\Username\Documents\Hedgewars

is it right that this is the same port?

port=46631
serverport=46631

thanks for any helpful post Smile

btw this here is the map seed i have shown, dunno if it helps if someone gives me some other map seed, since i can't change it else crash.

The FAQ is not precisely accurate on that point. We've had problems with all versions of Comodo...
Please test with Comodo completely uninstalled.
You can always reinstall it later if you really want to.

it is sad that it is comodo's fault without it works hm, a shame that this can't be fixed by comodo or by you guys. well need to use then another firewall (not windows own one)

Most home networks (standard wireless router, or whatever your cable/fios/dls provider gave you) already offer firewalling and a private network, so firewall on the machine isn't too important. Windows firewall is probably adequate if you take your machine onto other networks, just to make sure you don't have any accidentally open ports.

I have a similar problem.

Win 7 x64 & Comodo Firewall. Defense+ is deactivated and alle hedgewars.exe are set as trusted applications.

But Hedgewars immediately crashes when I try to enter a room in the multiplayer lobby. But it don't crashes if I create a room by myself. So, I can host and play multiplayer games, but not join others. Yesterday I was sometimes able to join other rooms, but today I tried it 40x without at least one success.

Don't forget to trust hwengine.exe
Not saying it'll necessarily work.
