I've recently switched from Wi2K to WinXP. On Windows
XP version 0.4 as well as version 0.3 crash while
loading the map. On Windows 2000 I had no such problems.
If you have crashes, could you please include the following
info here:
- wowmapview version (please be sure to try the newest one out)
- WoW client version
- OS
- CPU/RAM
- video card brand, model
- video driver
And most importantly, please upload your log.txt file or
mail it to me. Thanks.

Initializing extensions...
GL_EXTENSIONS: GL_WIN_swap_hint GL_EXT_bgra
GL_EXT_paletted_texture
So far, based on all the log files the problem seems to be
unsupported OpenGL extensions (I didn't check the return
values of GL getProcAddress for null, so the first call to
an unsupported function caused the crash). The good news is
that I can check to see if they're supported and gracefully
quit if they aren't (so no more crashes hopefully) The bad
news, however, is that these extensions are required for the
program to work, so there's not much I can do about it other
than asking the user to update video drivers or something :(
The extensions I use are: GL_ARB_multitexture
GL_ARB_texture_compression GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc
GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object GL_EXT_draw_range_elements

New version of modelviewer doesnt crash like it used to,
maybe you can do whatever you did to the modelviewer to the
mapviewer and the people with crashes wont have them
anymore? heh

i found one of the reason of crash. well sort of. i have gforce
5200 fx, video card. l had problem with driver, so i installed
old one (61). and it seems it works now, no more crashes. i
found out this by trying to install Medieval game. it crashed
too on new driver and version 68. but on 61 it worked.

Works great on startup and most places I have tried to go,
except Orgrimmar. Getting near Orgrimmar in this program
crashes so hard it restarts my computer. I can send my comp
information and the log file ( to large to post here ) if it
will help anyone.

I still can't even start the program.
I tried v0.5 and v0.5-debug.
I dont have previous versions, so I cant tell if it's a "new"
problem - always crashed since downloaded.
I can also email hijack's logfile and dxdiag's logfile.
Where can I email my logfiles?

I think the problem is the video card.
My previous post was about running the program on a
Asustek laptop.
Then I bought a desktop PC, nVidia GeForce 6200 TN graphic
card: everything works smoothly now.
Anyway, I cannot understand why a video card with
certified DirectX drivers (and capable of running WoW)
shall not work.

updated version soon (even if it is only to address this

I have to correct myself.
The crash only happens if I trie to load the textures from
the ELP. Loading from the German version makes no problems.

Here is a "debug" version with additional logging, log.txt
from this would be preferable instead of the stock 0.5
version, thanks.

Right now I'm suspecting opengl extensions but I'm not sure yet.
