Uncaught exception on line 274

[BriggsW]

Whether I select Remap, Macro, Map to Keyboard, or any other option and press add, I get the following exception

Traceback (most recent call last):

If I then unselect and then select the button, axis, or hat I tried to add to, I get this error

I've installed and uninstalled vJoy and Joystick Gemlin multiple times using the msi and zip file to no affect and will happen regardless of the vJoy config. I've repaired and reinstalled the x86 versions of vc2010 and vc2013 and have been unable to break this pattern

[WhiteMagic]

Which version of Gremlin are you using, and what does the vJoy configuration look like? The error you're getting should not be possible as that particular failure mode is guarded against in the code.

[GregShiner]

Im getting the exact same error on version 13.3

[WhiteMagic]

Are you using 13.3 or 13.3 Debug? The latter is the one with code addressing that kind of issue.

[GregShiner]

13.3. I guess that would do it lol

[jfjago]

Well I have this error too. Have anyone found a solution ?

[atledreier]

It seems for me it's a special character in the device name that is causing it (Moza wheelbase with character 144 somewhere in there).
Haven't found a solution. The 13.3 debug just fails to run, with no errors.

[WhiteMagic]

If the issue truly is the name of the device the registry trick to change the device name outlined in #369 might work.

[atledreier]

Yes, that trick worked, with no sideeffects that I have found so far.

For reference this was a Moza R9 Base, and the name looked ok in the registry. I deleted the full string to get rid of any hidden characters, typed in Moza R9 Base again, saved and it worked.
All the Moza software seems to work as intended after the change, so looking good so far.
