I like the new patch, but it really seems to be much less stable than previous incarnations.
I dont think I ever had a CTD since 1.0 until I DLed the new patch -- and it doesnt happen a lot, but I have had 4 CTDs in the last 3 days.
I play on my laptop, a Pentium M 1.86 gHz, 1 gig RAM, a 124 Radeon Mobility 700x (I think) graphics card.
Never had a problem until 1.3. And unfortunatly, I cannot really say when it happens -- everything goes along normally, and I move one ship somewhere, nothing spectacular, and then I receive the Windows error message (in German, hope I am translating this correctly) that it detected a problem and had to close the application (the error message asking if I want to send a report or not).
Sorry I cannot report more, is there some error log somewhere I can track down and post?
