Oh, guys, I just forgot -a key :D
Swfdump crashes with this file.

Issue with RABCDAsm is confirmed then. By the way, the developer reopened the 
issue and I made a detailed report to reproduce the error with SWFDump:
https://github.com/CyberShadow/RABCDAsm/issues/22
Feel free to correct me or to complete my comment.

And I just checked your Application.swf and mine, both have the same checksum, 
as expected.

idk if anyone knows about it, but if you set up compatibility with xp sp3 in 
win7, game won't crash with (any) application.swf

Mine has been CTD every night, after battle, constantly since release of 0.8.9. 

Only mod running is XVM (xvm-5.0.1-test2.zip), Windows 7 ultimate x64, 8Gb RAM, 
Nvidia 2Gb GTX 670.

Last night no CTD in 21 games???? No software changes not even Windows 
update... This really is random and will be hard to pin down.

Same here - Yesterday no CTD

Linux Mint 15, wine 1.7.5 CTD or Freeze in 2 of 3 Games today.

What I found helpful in reducing crashes was to set battle results to page two 
and unchecked the displays and chances to win.   Also, I noticed if at the end 
of the game if there is no mouse or keyboard input the chance of crash is 
reduced.   To get off the game after I am dead I do not use the mouse but the 
keyboard using tab and the space bar.  Input at the end of the game effects 
whether you crash or not.  This factor can produce a feeling of random crashes. 
 Renaming the application.swf does work in eliminating crashes...p0pPoP

@#161 Since i renamed application.swf 4 revisions of xvm ago, no crash 
whatsoever. i am updating xvm regularly(from aslains pack) and renaming the 
.swf as well. i do not believe keyboard/mouse input has anything to do with 
this, since before renaming i tried this possibility as well.

Problem with swfdump appears since 0.8.9 CT1

Mine has stopped crashing and I have changed nothing! No windows update nothing 
since my post above. So now I have to try and make it crash again to find out 
the catalyst.

Last crash 
"World Client has encountered an unhandled exception and must close"; Wed Nov 
06 22:12:52 2013.

Log attached as proof.

pavlushko.m, I think SWFDump and Scaleform are failing for the same reasons, 
but I don't have a clue on how to fork RABCDAsm with our changes (avoid forward 
typename reference + keep same ABC elements order). I don't think RABCDAsm's 
developer is willing to rewrite his program either...
This doesn't sound good.

Original comment by edgar.fo...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 1:49

[GoogleCodeExporter]

maybee it is time to provide a minimum version that does not crash and add 
features incrementally until it starts crashing again and narrowing down the 
problem this way performing a pseudo binary search for the problem? once found 
one can rewrite that part.

Original comment by Erik.It...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 2:56

[GoogleCodeExporter]

We already know what the problem is, the assembler program is producing binary 
code that is not supported by Scaleform.

Original comment by edgar.fo...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 4:26

[GoogleCodeExporter]

OK, so you have a (thought to be) valid ActionScript source file you cannot 
compile because RABCDAsm fails to produce target platform compatible swf byte 
code, right? Where is the source, have only seen the swf compiled this far.

which compilers have you tried so far?

Original comment by Erik.It...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 5:55

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

Thx for your mail, but i'm not prentending to have a valid actionscript
souce file... I dont compile anything.
I'm using XVM for about a year (every version)
For the new 8.9, I download the
xvm-5.0.1-test2.zip<https://code.google.com/p/wot-xvm/downloads/detail?name=xvm-
5.0.1-test2.zip&can=2&q=>
and
installed it ... And it crashes every combat end.
Of course I tried to install it 3 or 4 times (clean install, I mean)... no
result!

My computer is running vista and my gpu is a geforce 9500

have a nice evening!

Fred

[GoogleCodeExporter]

ok, you do not have the action script at all, right? you are trying to fix the 
Application.swf byte code? Application.swf is authored by WG? did anyone ask 
them to provide either the source for just that or assist in solving this 
isssue?

Original comment by Erik.It...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 6:42

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Download 7zip then go in your game folder / res / packages / gui.pkg > right 
click > 7zip > Open. Then Application.swf is located into the flash folder if I 
remember correctly.
The problem is that RABCDAsm is the only (dis)assembler for AS3.
Btw, I agree with Erik.Itter, we should ask WG to provide the sources...

what about http://www.as3sorcerer.com/ ?

Original comment by ivobar...@gmail.com on 9 Nov 2013 at 7:20

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Did you try Sothink SWF Decompiler or Editor? I usually use this to get out the 
source code

Original comment by gaut...@gmail.com on 10 Nov 2013 at 12:16

from #155

"idk if anyone knows about it, but if you set up compatibility with xp sp3 in 
win7, game won't crash with (any) application.swf"

This is working for me - hardly any crashes since i did this.

Original comment by mattsmit...@gmail.com on 10 Nov 2013 at 1:08

I'm writing a custom ABC injector for Application.swf, let's hope I get this 
fixed in less than one week.

Original comment by edgar.fo...@gmail.com on 10 Nov 2013 at 1:12

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Another confirmation for the #155 idea with the xp sp3 compatibility mode. 63 
battles played yesterday afternoon and night, up until 4am GMT -- not a single 
crash. Before this setting I would get a CTD maybe every 3-4 battles so I had 
application.swf renamed. So far compatibility mode works great. I'll try to get 
others to apply it too and I'll report if it worked for them.

Compatibility XP is a false path : I tried it 3 times : 3 CTDs!!

Original comment by fred.0...@gmail.com on 10 Nov 2013 at 2:47

[GoogleCodeExporter]

@post #174

"hardly any crashes" is harley a fix! You mean it is still crashing for you...

I had two solid day with no crashes and now it is crashing again almost every 
other game. There is no fix until the Devs come up with one. There is a 
workaround and that is to delete "Application.swf" but this will remove XVM 
features.

The crashing is random - period!

#177, iirc you're on Vista, right? as mentioned in #148, the solution I posted

r2935 seems to solve the issue and everything works for me, good job :)

Not crashing for me too but I only did a few games with the last nightly.
If you still need Application.swf, I can make a non-crashing version in one or 
two days, keep me posted.

Played 36 games without a single crash on 2936. Previously crashed roughly 1 in

It will be great, because without Application.swf we have mirrored icons in the 
hangar.

yes, I still need application.swf, many features are useful with it

Hello,
Sorry for the bad new, but still CTD with the night build...

Original comment by fred.0...@gmail.com on 11 Nov 2013 at 2:33

[GoogleCodeExporter]

m.schedriviy, lionel.faure, all right I'm working on it.

fred.0056, you have to remove Application.swf from res_mods\0.8.9\gui\flash.
If it's still crashing, please provide python.log & xvm.log.
