For some reason the game keeps crashing a few minutes after starting a new game. It never did this before I installed distant worlds universe, or maybe something to do with steam? never played it on steam till now.
here's the DW crash dump report:

RE: game keeps crashing
Hi Skyllio
Thanks for that report.
Sounds like this is a consistently reproduceable crash? What settings are you using to start your new game?
Anyway, that error report gives us plenty of information to add a fix for this in the first update for DW Universe.
Thanks
Elliot

RE: game keeps crashing
The game works everytime if i don't use the ancient galaxy map. But will crash everytime after a few minutes if I use the settings below.
i used a custom game with standard empire with the following setting
Ancient galaxy map
Elliptical Galaxy
1400 stars
15x15 sectors
Prewarp expansion
normal aggression
normal difficulty
expensive research costs
normal space creatures
normal pirates
normal pirate strength
Normal Colony prevalence
plentiful alien life
100% colony influence range
2.00 sector colonization range
Human Empire
random galaxy starting location
normal home system
starting size
prewarp tech level
normal corruption
way of the ancients government
19 auto generated empires
allow indepented alien colonies to start new empires during game
no victory conditions
all story events enabled
allow tech trading
allow giant kaltors at game start
so far everytime i start with those settings it crashes after a few minutes. and it usually happens around the date 9860.06.03 or 9860.06.02
and i found another bug when starting a game with the ancient galaxy map, whenever i investigate a base or ship i get an unhandled exception with the following info
See the end of this message for details on invoking

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
It works if i don't use the ancient galaxy map.

Consistently crashes - except if I get a message about a research breakthrough. Then it didn't crash

RE: game keeps crashing
Reverting back to the Default Theme and starting a new game under same settings, the game managed to build the first ship without crashing.
Maybe the AG theme is having some unwarranted affect on games started normally and not within the AG setting.
