Apparently, I'm not the only one that prefers to play on gigantic maps and enjoys epic length games...

I'm not going to bother with posting the log because it's substantially similar to the logs already posted by others with the save game reload CTD (appears centered around ships/ship templates).

Is there any sort of hotfix for this?

I quit playing DA for a while -- and just started another game yesterday... now I remember why I shelved DA: It's impossible to finish a game unless you either play a smaller map that you can finish in a single session, or, play for 40 hours straight.

I hate to be 'that guy' - but this has to be the most exceptionally frustrating bug I've run across in ANY game (and I've been a loyal - and sometimes frustrated - EU/EU2/HOI/HOI2 player for years.... and the early versions were crashfests).

Is there any sort of hotfix for this?

I don't even care to save my ship designs (in my current game, I've only got a customized constructor and a customized surveyer). I'd be fine with losing ALL my ship designs if there were a way to continue the game I now cannot load (and have tried 4 different saved game loads). Is there any way around this?
