Stéphane, the (modern.exe) compile for this commit is 1,141 KB, whereas the previous compiles have been 1,234 KB. And then when I went to use it, it crashed 8 minutes in, which is very unusual. Any idea why this compile is so much smaller than the previous compiles? |

I have absolutely no idea, maybe the Abrok guys have changed compiler or something like that? In fact nobody among the SF dev has any control about the Abrok executable, so for the moment the best thing to do would be to ask in the forum if somebody sees the same phenomena with a modern.exe compile |

Ok, thanks Stéphane! |
