Streaming TIC-80 on Discord makes it crash

[Trixciel]

As the name suggests, trying to stream TIC-80 in a Discord voice chat makes the game crash. Can't be more specific than that. I tried both fullscreen and windowed.

Can confirm the main executable crashes when streamed on Discord. The SDL player does not crash if that helps narrow down what causes the crash.

I can confirm this as well. Trying to stream 1.0.2164 to Discord results in weird visual glitches, 0.90.1723 was completely fine

i've done some narrowing down on this issue: streaming the build 0.90-1723 does not result in a crash, but streaming 1.0-1735 does.

Does anyone know which git commits these builds correspond to?

I think there's a link from the corresponding release page in some cases.

For example, for 0.90-1723, visiting this page, I see a link to this commit.

I didn't find anything for 1.0-1735 though.

Perhaps the problem is using the SDLGPU library, can anyone test it with GPU rendering disabled by calling the binary with the tic80.exe --soft option?

[borbware]

@nesbox tested! your hunch was right - streaming tic80-1.1-pro.exe didn't crash it when running it from the command line with the --soft option.
