Hello. I get frequent crashes, sometimes I can play for long hours of time but at other times it's maximum of 10min. This time it was 3 crashes, here's the time stamps:

[19:32:56]
[19:35:42]
[20:00:40]

I've read the logs sometimes, and it seems to be a violation access error (Exception: C0000005) every time. Googling didn't turn up much that I could find, but what I've tried: Starting openttd with admin rights, tried changing resolutions, tried fullscreen on/off, tried vanilla graphics, tried both 32 and 64 bit versions, tried do fully reinstall two times (including deleting regfiles). It happens both when I play multiplayer and single player should be added too.

My system is windows 10, 64bit. I7 6700k, gtx 970, ssd, 16bit ram, it should handle openttd, other games is just fine. :)

Please help me to solve this bug! Here's attached crash files

It crashes in ICU when drawing the newspaper.

ICU cannot handle some fonts for unknown reasons. Given that it is the newspaper that triggers it, means that it is probably related to the large font.

Try changing your "large_font" in openttd.cfg.

Interesting. I changed it to "large_font = " so it gets the default value. I will report back if it crashes again. And for personal interest, how the heck did you figure that out? :)

Crash.dmp tells that it crashes in ICU when drawing the newspaper.

This is not the first report, where ICU crashes with some specific font.
I am quite sure it is not even the first one where it is specific to the large font, and thus specific to the newspaper.

By the way, I pulled the font settings from here: https://wiki.openttd.org/FAQ_troubleshooting# Windows

Might want to add a disclaimer or change it there! So far so good by the way, no crashes yet :)
