Game crashes on creation of map with any race other than human

August 19, 2012 2:58:44 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

No matter the settings any race other than human crashes the game on map creation.  Same settings for the human race work fine.  I've used the 64 bit reg file, I've verified the local game files via steam.  A custom race works fine.

Try wiping out the custom race files from Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor, that sort of behavior generally means one of them is corrupt.

I deleted the raceconfigxml files and it still crashes.  I think its important to note that I've never played another race as this is a new purchase.  I've re-installed the game as well.
