Could you please post your logs? See ReportingErrors and GameDataPaths

Description: modified (diff)

As Josh said, crashlogs would be helpful and system_info.txt for good measure.

Also, was the game running fullscreen? Did it take a while to generate the map? Did you press Ctrl+Alt+Del or switch to the desktop or did the computer go to sleep meanwhile?

We need to know more to have a chance of reproducing and fixing the error.

I got this same error, too. I was playing Alpha 16 in full screen. I saved and paused the game then pressed Win+L (shortcut for locking the computer). After a while I unlocked the computer and this error message was on the screen. I clicked continue and a second error message said: 

ChangeDisplaySettings failed with ret=-1
Location: wsdl.cpp:853 (OnActivate)

Call stack:

(error while dumping stack: No stack frames found)
errno = 0 (No error reported here)
OS error = 0 (no error code was set)

I clicked continue again. Game continued to work, but in windowed mode.

Replying to memoconq:

I got this same error, too. I was playing Alpha 16 in full screen. I saved and paused the game then pressed Win+L (shortcut for locking the computer). After a while I unlocked the computer and this error message was on the screen.

That is a known problem, in Windows you can't leave your "desktop" while the game is running, regardless of the shortcut used. If you get to the login screen while the game is running, it will probably break (reasons give on #1733 which I believe reports the same issue).

I believe it's a bug in our WSDL implementation and I tested that it's fixed by the SDL2 upgrade, which I actually want to happen this next release.
