CTD - could it be due to a reloaded game?

June 21, 2005 7:56:50 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
This access violation happened a few turns after saving and reloading a game. I am sending the saved game, debug file, and SE report to Scott.

It happened again and this time I noticed that it was trying to autosave the game. I have seen a report where someone could not save a game without a CTD, but they did not report having a reloaded game crash while being saved. Perhaps this is the same problem (or not)?

It sounds like the same thing that happened to me. Something gets corrupted in the game, and once that happens it can never be saved again. It will crash whenever you attempt to save (or autosave). The corruption persists in your samegame file, so quitting and reloading will not get rid of it. Start a new game!

Actually, I was able to restart a game, but it was a save of a game that had not been reloaded. Then I turned off auto save to avoid the save crashes.

There was a bug where saving a previously saved game caused a crash,  but I have fixed it on my end.

Thanks, Cari.
Any idea when a build with this fix will be available? This problem is a real deterant to being able to test some other things.
