[1.20a] Out of mem

I got an other error while playing.

Same here all three games I played also it ctd once too. I'm on my laptop when I get home I can upload the files if you want them!

frustrated, frustrated, frustrated - I have tried over and over to play this game and approx 240-260 turns CRASH!!"out of memory" - using about 1.5gb of memory at that time. Game is patched to the latest 1.2 blah blah blah - still no difference. I understand the devs have put a lot of work into this game but almost a year later still having the same problem, not good, not good at all. I guess its back to Civ 5. but knowing myself I will be back to play Elemental (partial amnesia and praying that the problem goes away). Please plase please fix the freaking problem

I feel your pain. It is something I'm looking out for too.

What video card are you using and what OS?

  It looks like you jump into each large map and press Ctrl+U to reveal the whole map (which pulls all the worlds graphics into memory), then restart and do the same a few times.  Displaying one large map in a game is tough, doing this multiple times in the same application space is very hard on memory.  Not to say that our memory usage is perfect, just explaining what is going on.

  I'm going to play around with this a bit tomorrow and see if I can reproduce this.  Do keep in mind that using the Ctrl+U cheat on large maps is tough on memory, and we will keep working on it on our end.

Do you remember what this error was?  I dont see anything in the logs and the memory usage seems normal (at about 800 meg).

OS - Win 7 64 bit

Graphics - 4870 x 2

Memory - 4gb

I have played the same map (I created it - with a bunch of resources) and without fail every single time it will run out of memory between 240-260 turns (depends on when I research Adventure, the earlier I start the quicker it will crash) - Also I no longer build a second city, because that also lowers the number of turns before crashing
