Windows Runtime Error

[Dev]

Lots of people have been experiencing this error.. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-Runtime-Error

I don't think it has anything to do with our end.. Windows even lists this as a programming error so hopefully one of these threads gets noticed..

Found a page that explains why this is happening and it is a programming error.

Cause:
This error occurs when your application indirectly calls a pure virtual member function in a context where a call to the function is not valid. In most cases, the compiler detects this and reports the error when building the application. But depending on how your code is written, sometimes the problem is detected only at run-time.

The error occurs when you indirectly call a pure virtual function within the context of a call to the constructor or destructor of an abstract base class.

So basically one or more of their programmers derped some code.

for those that don't understand.....a function is a set of instructions that are used more then once....instead of writing the same code over and over again...write it as a function....then when needed call the function......what is happening here is most likely a typo when calling a specific function...It happens...Hopefully they can search in their debugger for all their function calls and figure out which is misspelled.

I've been getting this error, too. I only get it once a day, however. That's because every time I get it, I can't get back in -- 1017'd for hours on end.

Hugely frustrating.
