Hey

Purchased Dark Avatar, but cant play it due to it crashing every time i try to start a new game. I can tune on all the options, like galaxy size, race and etc, but when im ready to start a game, the loading screen is crashing. I cant even press the options button on the main screen, as it causes the game to crash. Crash crash crash! Hope someone can look at this and help me
