Deprecated Darkstar fourms

This here is the holy grail for me. I have been trying to figure out auto-dumps for the longest time. Paired with silent crash, I can also auto-restart. With this, minimal down time without sacrificing the information necessary to figure out what happened.

And it's stupidly simple.

Put this stuff in a file and call it reg.reg, or something.reg.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting]
"DontShowUI"=dword:0000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\DSGame-server.exe]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,64,00,75,00,6d,00,70,00,00,00
"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000002

Save the file, right click, add to registry.

That's it for auto-dumps. The default directory I set is c:\dump, you can change it if you'd like using regedit.

Paired with KNAS restarter, it's the ideal solution for constant uptime.

This is awesome. I paired it with cmd scripts on my win7 box. Just have to remember to copy the matching exe and pdb to go along with the dmp files.
That's the script I've been using since aprox last September. I have that creating an extra log of when my last stop was, so if I'm away for awhile I can see if my uptime has suffered. As an added bonus I can right click the console window and copy, rather than having to scroll down the log or extra clicks to copy file for that error I just saw.
