mapextractor.exe access violation error

[evakq8r]

Hi all,

I'm running into issues trying to extract maps. When I start the extractor.bat file and select Option 1, mapextractor.exe starts then immediately fails for 'mapextractor.exe has stopped working'.

The debug file from VS 2017 Studio suggests the issue is: Unhandled exception thrown: read access violation. pbEncodingKey was nullptr. This comes from line 375 in the debug tool (screencap attached).

I've tried recompiling from scratch, and the issue remains. Tried on two PCs as well, same issue. This doesn't occur on the 3.3.5a branch, only master.

OS: Windows 10 Pro

I'm not sure what's causing it and unfortunately I can't interpret the error to any useful means.

Any help would be appreciated.

As far as I'm aware it's the latest build. How do I tell what version I currently have?

simply update.

I've updated the core folder, and Git indicates there are no new updates.

EDIT: I'll re-download the core files again, though this will take a while as the server this info is being pulled from is ridiculously slow. (~150KB/s). It's not my connection either as that's running at the appropriate speed without issue.

EDIT2: After ~8 attempts or so, it finally stopped erroring out. No idea why so many attempts, but it seems to work now. Thanks for the help.
