Does this reproduce for somebody? I can't get it to happen.

Using the string "a" for all random seeds makes it crash for me. All worldgen parameters except for minerals (and x size) are identical to the default for POCKET REGION.

This might not help, but when it crashes and windows says it crashed, under "more detail" it says the following:

Hmm, unfortunately I'm still unable to get this to reproduce (also in Windows 7). Is it happening for others?

I managed to reproduce.

Widnows 7, dwarf fortress .05

Today evening I can try to reproduce that on Linux Mint on DF .06

duplicated POCKET REGION
changed "use seed" to "yes" and "seed" to "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
mineral scarcity to "100"
dimension to 33x17 (what caused mineral scarcity to revert back to 2500 - why?)
mineral scarcity to "100"
F6 to save
enter to start generation

Crashed on "Forming lakes and minerals (44)"

Segfault? ^^

Yes, you have to change the dimension BEFORE you set mineral scarcity, otherwise it'll reset.

Since save compatibility has been broken since this report, it's hard to tell whether this crash has since been fixed. If anyone has world generation params that reproduce this problem in the latest version, please upload them to http://pastebin.com/ [^] and PM a manager on the forums (or reopen the report).
