Beta 4 crashing (not anymore)

from GalCiv2 Forums
I just Downloaded the Beta [b4} .17 and now I crash before the game begins. I play custom games and never had a problem before. I can custom my game just fine and then, a few seconds after the universe is being created, it crashes. The debug.err shows the 2 following errors:

*DEBUG ERROR: ***Unable to find required tech ImpossibleTech for PirateShip. ***
Debug Message: Found existing ship type with class name: Ranger
*DEBUG ERROR: ***Unable to find required tech ImpossibleTech for Starbase. ***

I also get the following twice (may not be an error):
Debug Message: *************** Failed To Place Planet ***************

I can post the required hardware that is at the beginning of the file but I don't want to clutter this forum if it's not neccesary. Especially since these error messages imply an incorrect pointer or such.
Any idea's?

OK. I got it working. I went to the "My Documents\My Games\Galciv2" folder and cleaned out my previous games and such. Then, when I went back into the game, I had to redo all of my previous settings. After that, it worked fine.

I'm guessing here, but maybe some of my previous settings were interfering with the new changes. Things like having my attributes going over the max and stuff. But whatever the reason, the cleanup worked.

The saved game format was changed so you never know.
