I dloaded 1.1(b4) today and ran into a major problem. First I can't loading any of my saved games, which sucks because I'm really killin the AI right now, but it will crash everytime I try and load it. Second, when I try and save it, it also will crash. Whether its autosave or quicksave or manual save it crashes back to the desktop. Also why the hell does the sound skip? I have to keep the background music off just so I don't hear the stuttering music and sound effects. Anyway I'm posting the Debug.err file for my most recent crash, which happened while I was trying to quicksave and hard locked my PC. Hope you guys can fix this cause I REALLY love this game!!
