MALA crashes when "Game Played" reaches 100
« on: May 10, 2009, 10:24:46 am »
On my MALA layout I have a spot where it shows how many times a game has been played. When this number reaches 100 and as you select the game with 100 or more plays it locks up MALA and my whole computer. I need to do a hard reboot.

Any ideas what is causing this? I am using MALA 1.04 because 1.05 always crashed for me in general.

Not a workaround but just troublehshooting...

If you remove the number of times played from the layout, does it still crash?

-------- gp2x and retro... play it forever! ------------------------

Ok, I fixed it. I made the font size smaller and now it doesn't crash. I guess I had the font to large and it couldn't fit all three letters in the box.
