Forwarding this for a friend, he has gotten this crash a number of times now. He is using Project Brutality, but their devs have stated it's GZDoom-related and should be forwarded here for fixing. This happens on both the latest stable and dev builds.

There's literally nothing we can do about that unless the code causing the crash is stripped down to a minimal reproducible example.

He says walking through tons of charred corpses is what can cause it. Would it be the effects causing it?

A minimal reproducible example is something we can load up, run and immediately get a crash. Preferably doing as little else as possible to make it easier to debug. "Load up Project Brutality, play long enough to produce a tons of charred corpses and then maybe it will crash" is not it.

We're not trying to be overly demanding - but the real honest truth is, bug fixing such as this is a bit of a cooperative effort and it does take a little bit of tit for tat from both sides. This is the nature of the beast - we can't fix what we can't see, it'd be the same in any other skill set - especially with a project as complex as GZDoom.

I see... I will let him know.
