Access Violation when speedwalking
 
Ugh, nasty problem. Attempting to speedwalk to another room, either by doubleclicking or using #walk generates a "Access Violation at address 005FE8BB in module "Zmud.exe". Read of address 00000000." I have recently upgraded from the beta version to 7.01. I had deleted a zone that had been causing me problems with speedwalking (#walk was sending the wrong directions to the mud) and had used zonecopy to reimport an older backup of the offending zone. Now attempting to speedwalk in any of the zones generates this error. What would you suggest now that I have well and truly burnt my fingers trying to fix it myself? ;)
Cheers,
Kaine

I'm not sure what the problem is. You might want to attempt a database repair using this tool: http://www.zuggsoft.com/files/jetcu40.exe

Good luck

No joy using the database repair tool, still get the Access Violation error. Ive tried renumbering the room Vnums too without any luck. My map db backup seems to work fine so I think I'll go back to this one, although it's a bit out of date *sigh*. Moral of the story is to keep backups up to date I guess!

If you send me the broken map file and instructions on where to speedwalk to get the error, I can try to reproduce the problem here. You need to get the map file under 5MB (zip it or something) and email it to sales@zuggsoft.com to avoid my spam filter.

I have the EXACT same problem with my map...doesn't matter if I click in the next room or in a zone on the other side of the mud I get that error.
