crashing runtime error

December 19, 2005 6:43:38 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
i downloaded the updates today and my saved games wouldn't load. then i tried a new game and it would crash in the first turn over and over. i reinstalled, and now it won't even load. it says it had a runtime error and it was terminated in an unusual way. anyone else had this problem???

Saved games aren't usually compatible from one beta release to the next. I always erase mine when upgrading.

Sendeth,

1) Go to https://www.stardock.com/products/smartexception and install SmartException.  Send in crash logs to gc2bugs@stardock.com  You may also want to send in a screenshot of the error you are getting.

2) Delete your My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2 folder.
