Crash on Load Saved Game

from Elemental Forums

Several times now, when I've tried to load a saved game when I've already been playing (go to main screen from the game, hit load game), the game crashes.  The music stops, comes back, then the screen flashes and that's it.

 

I have an HP Pavilion 9501f running Vista.  The crashing happens on Autosave and manually saved games, but not all the time -- maybe 50%.

 

AN unrelated problem -- I loaded an Autosave from several turns before I had finished researching a tech.  WHen I loaded the game, the tech wait time was down from 3 to 1 day.

Please open your debug.err file in notepad, and link the contents into a post here via pastebin. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.

The file can be found in My Documents\My Games\Elemental

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug log will be erased and recreated for the new session.

If there was a dump zip created in C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic on Windows XP), please post it via drop.io.
