Are you running Windows? It should be in:

C:/Program Files/Warzone 2100/warzone2100.RPT

Don't worry if it's not there; not all crashes produce the crashdump.

yes i am running windows...
so if it is not creating a crash file then i should run degug in the command prompts and that would give me info in stderr?

If the game "crashes" and there is no dump file, and no error logs, then the fault is almost always in drviers. Most likely, video drivers, but could be sound, and it could also be system issues. (like overheating...)

Doing --debug all will give you a TON of info, but usually, when a error happens in the codebase, we give a error reason, and it writes that to stderr. So there is no real reason to use that, unless your looking for something specific.

(like for network games, we need --debug net)
and it ends here.
