Full browser crash on Windows
Closed this issue · 23 comments
You should note in the README.md (above the map) that this crashes Chrome entirely on Windows. (not a single tab, but all chrome.exe processes due to an RPC error) The surprise might spoil the fun for some people. 😐
What version of Chrome are you running? Only the one tab crashes for me. (Windows 7, Chrome 45.0.2454.85 m)
Example : http://gfycat.com/LeanWarpedGreyhounddog
Same here.
Window 10, Chrome 46.0.2490.33 beta-m (64-bit), only one tab crash as well
Windows 10, Chrome 45.0.2454.93 m. All of Chrome crashes instantly.
Windows 7, Chrome 47.0.2503.0 dev-m (64-bit) still has the issue, only crashes one tab though.
Same version as @louh, same OS, same crash. Looks like it's a problem with 45.0.2454.93 m

Interesting thing is it doesn't happen in OS X (OS X Yosemite, Chrome Canary 47.0.2515.0). Don't know if maybe it just has to do with running Canary though.

Nah. I've tried with 45.0.2454.93 on OS X 10.11 and only one tab crashes.
Confirmed entire-browser crash on Windows 8: 46.0.2490.33 beta-m (64-bit)
Windows 10, Chrome 45.0.2454.99 m: only one tab crashes.
Only crashes one tab on Chrome OS version 46.0.2490.33 beta
Hey @metarmask: if you put http://a/%%30%30 into the address bar, does it crash your entire OS?
Yes it does.
If it is crashing the whole browser then you are playing in Hardcore mode, change to medium to crash just the tab. Easy mode will show a warning only.
Can anyone, possibly @louh or @smiley, confirm that the entire Chrome browser crashes when playing the game or hovering over a URL? A directly typed URL will always crash the Chrome and Opera browsers, as far as I am aware.
Only the tab crashes playing the game/hovering over the URL in all of the following versions for me:
OS: Windows 10 (64-bit)
Chrome 45.0.2454.93 m (Same OS and version as @louh and @smiley, who experienced a full browser crash)
Chrome 45.0.2454.99 m (Most recent)
Opera 32.0.1948.44 (Most recent)
In the absence of any full browser crashes, the issue could be considered closed, possibly with a note of the differing severity of crash problems at the bottom of the readme.
45.0.2454.99 m
full browser crash. Win 7 x64 professional.
Chrome 47.0.2517.0 canary (64-bit) & Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10240]
Game is not crashing browser anymore. The magic is gone.
I'm now on Version 45.0.2454.99 m, the browser is still fully crashing on mine.
I also have Chrome Canary (47.0.2517.0 canary (64-bit)) - it does not crash there.
Oh yes. I'm on a Mac and when I type in the URL it kills my browser. (Actually, it doesn't let me open Canary until I restart my entire computer or logout-login!) If I just hover over the link it crashes my tab but not the rest of the game.
This bug is fixed in Chrome 45.0.2454.101.
