Furthermore, building AF from source with Forge ON (or OFF) also works. If these built Forge libraries are replaced with the ones from the installer, the crashes start to occur. Removing the Forge libraries altogether removes the crashes.\r\n\r\nThis occurs both with AF 3.7.1 and 3.6.2 (where the no-gl installer works). GCC/G++ used was 7.5.0 with Ubuntu 18.04.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/villekf","@type":"Person","name":"villekf"},"datePublished":"2020-05-18T09:18:57.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":14},"url":"https://github.com/231/forge/issues/231"}
