Hi, today i bought Galactic Civilization II: Endless Universe because after playing GC II for so many months on a gigantic universe i wanted to try out the ridiculous huge universe and all the fetaures in Twighlight of Arnor. But whenever i want to start a game and the loading screen with the hints appears it crashes after loading. i found out that it does not happen when i turn of the minor races but i dont want to play without minor races so here is the errorfile with minor races on. I bought the game in germany and its (almost) fully translated.
