It seems giving missions (to players or pirates) in Multiplayer games causes a desync. Usually it doesn't crash right away but easily can down the road.

Same here, single player Vasari pressing the give mission button is instant minidump in beta 3.  Haven't tried yet with other races.

How about the 5 minute black screen when turing it on?????  Anybody?

If you're having crashes/minidumps with Diplomacy make sure to send them to sinssupport@stardock.com

droideka95 try C:\Documents and Settings\'user name'\Local Settings\Temp\Sins Dump folder

note the local settings folder is hidden so you have to un-hide hidden file & folders in folders options.

note 2 the 'user name' is your windows user name

hope this helps

I as well have minidumps whenever I send missions (sometimes as TEC and Advent as well as Vasari) And a huge thing that crashed my game was this-

I was giving an ally a mission to kill player X. Player X died and quit the game about 1 second before I clicked the send mission button. The entire game crashed.
