Hello,

I have the stand alone Fantasy Grounds application (outside of Steam) and everything appears to work properly until I have clients join my campaign. As soon as that happens Fantasy Grounds crashes for me. I have an Ultimate license so all users should be able to join my games. Here is the the screenshot of the error that pops up:
18617

I also downloaded the error log (See the attached "backtrace.txt" file.

Here are my Mac Computer stats:
OS: OSX Sierra 10.12.14
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015)
Processor: 3.1 GHz Intel Core i7
RAM:16 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
Graphics:Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB

Hi patoarch12 - which install instructions/method did you use?
I wonder if the latest build is conflicting with your Wineskin option.
Have a look at this thread - https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?37787-Mac-OSX-Testers-needed - perhaps you might do a quick install of this as a test?

Hi Dammed, those were the installation instructions I originally used. Unfortunately the application works fine until someone joins my campaign.

Do you have any extensions installed? What material is shared? Have you tried it with a new campaign? Using a different Ruleset? Have you added any custom tokens?

Much of that shouldn't matter, but always best to try to isolate possible causes.

you might also post this in that thread then so that ddavison sees it.
can you confirm as LordEntrails suggests - with a new campaign and no extensions - just to narrow it down.

We are trying to reproduce it.

I connected to Zeus' campaign from a Windows machine and we didn't have a crash situation. I'll post in the other thread to see if anyone else is getting a similar crash so we can try to isolate what might be the problem.

Awesome! I am glad to hear it doesn't appear to happen to all mac hosts. Thanks ddavison. In the mean time I went ahead and boot camped my Mac to Windows so that my group is able to connect and it works perfectly in Windows.

I hope you guys find what the issue is.

If it helps, I have time today to either join or host from a Windows or Mac client. Just let me know.

Thanks LordEntrails, I'm sorry I missed that post yesterday. I ended up just dedicating my windows partition to Fantasy Grounds because we had a Fantasy Grounds game trial meeting scheduled last night and just went with what currently works. :)
