Very frequent crashes without single obvious cause

[Woman-at-arms]

Hi there. While playing with EEex I seem to experience random crashes.

I've included all requested logs/dumps as well as an EEex log file with debug enabled. I had to upload the dump and saves externally as they are too large for GitHub issue uploads.

Dump: https://drive.proton.me/urls/59HGFRGC1G#77BowH4Y0llx
Saves: https://drive.proton.me/urls/57GBMS3H60#S0gIi6Pn8I9d
WeiDU.log
eeex.log

I would very much like to provide a specific set of steps to reproduce the issue, unfortunately it seems to occur at random while performing many different activities. Sometimes triggered by quick save, sometimes triggered while I'm watching my characters walk across the map (not immediately after issuing a command). I did try quick saving over and over to see if that would trigger it but no luck.

If there is anything you can suggest I do to attempt to reliably reproduce the issue I would be happy to perform those steps.

Also worth noting: the uploaded saves are from my SoD playthrough but this also happened throughout my main campaign/TotSC playthrough.

For example most recent crash I had entered a battle with an Ettin, I had the game on pause, not doing anything just reading something on the screen and...crash. I wish I could provide some specific way to reproduce just not sure how.

Note that launching the game through a console window (e.g. via writing an InfinityLoader.bat file only consisting of InfinityLoader.exe) will allow to see the console output in the background.

Additionally, the source of the issues could easily be Infinity_UI++.

Fair enough. @GraionDilach can I just start InfinityLoader.exe from a terminal or do I specifically need to use a batch file?

Hi, thanks for the report. Your game is crashing due to some Lua code calling EEex_ReadLString() with an invalid parameter. This is probably coming from a mod utilizing EEex, like one of the relevant Tweaks Anthology components. Unfortunately there's no way to track down the offending Lua code currently - though I've been working over the past week to overhaul EEex's crashing handling to support dumping this info. I'm planning on releasing a new version of EEex once I've finalized that code.

@Bubb13 sick that's great to hear. I will be happy to test and provide feedback to the appropriate mod authors once the new EEex release is available. I really appreciate your work on it!

Terminal should also work. I just prefer a bat file because it opens one and closes it as well with the game.
