Dmengine.exe has stopped working. Exception code: c0000005

Hello.

I’m trying to build and launch any project and I’m getting same error on 3 projects I tried.
Yes I tried making a project via dashboard.
Anti-virus ON/OFF , Run As Admin, short Path to defold (“C:\Defold”)
I have updated even graphical drivers to exclude some old drivers, no change.

" Project -> Build and Launch " / " Rebuild and launch "
always the same error.
However somehow after recent Defold update I can " Build HTML and Launch " but thats not satisfying the Console is not working…

I have pasted full info from the error window I could get:

Hmm, that’s unfortunate. There should be a file named _crash under %APPDATA%\Defold after the engine has crashed, perhaps you can attach it to your post, and we can have a look at it tomorrow?

Also, in the HTML5 build, you mention you don’t see output (in the editor?).
The output is shown in the in the developer console of your browser (I think it’s shown by pressing F12 in both Internet Explorer and Edge)

hello,

thank you for your response.
Let’s leave the HTML5 build behind.
The game we need to make for our course is an Android project so let’s focus on that “Build and Launch” / “Rebuild and launch”

Here is the file you mentioned I hope it will help. (I made a *.zip of it cause the forum rules do not allow files with no extensions)

Unfortunately, the _crash file didn’t help me in this case :confused:
Perhaps you can tell me a bit more in detail about the issue. You mention you’ve created a project via dashboard? I guess is was just a simple empty project?

If you bundle the project for Windows, will it launch if you double click on that .exe?

If not, perhaps you could check if there are some dependency (dll) issues for that executable with Dependency Walker. Simply open the tool, and drag in the executable there and it should show if there are any dll’s missing on your system (if any).

I have tried 4 projects:

  1. the tutorial thats made by default when we make account on dashboard.
  2. a simple project my friend invited me (this is the project he had by default) on the account.
  3. project made by my friend (he added me to the team) this the project we work on now.
  4. project (blank) just made it while writing this for test prupose.

All those give the same problem. No matter what I do when I click “Build and Launch” / “Rebuild and launch” I’m getting same exception: c0000005

Yes I tried to do Bunlde -> Windows - debugging gives same error.
Bundle -> Windows Application - Release mode - ALL is working fine.
So we know that the realease (non debugging) can be made and it will work (in this case on windows).

So how do we fix the “build” or “rebuild” ??
We both know I cannot work on our game if I can’t see whats happening inside when Im adding stuff.

Well, it’s a tough one.

Do you happen to know the last time it worked? Or perhaps a version number?

You could try downloading an older editor: using the pattern (from here).

http://d.defold.com/archive/%SHA1%/stable/editor/Defold-win32.win32.x86.zip (You find the sha1’s here) using the sha1 of the latest version that you knew worked.

E.g.
1.2.96

1.2.95
