Frequent Crashes After Update to 1.06

Post by arnii »

Hi, after I updated the game to 1.06 it has started to crash quite often. Sometimes it crases quite frequently so it is hard to play it. Here is screenshot that show example of these crases.

Arnii try turning the game sounds off and see if the behavior is better.(Game->Game Options->Sounds/Music Tab)

We're working on the next update and expect to have a fix to release with it. Sorry for the bad behavior if it turns out to be the cause.

Mike,I'm getting the same problem: frequent crashes in both complex and simple scenarios. The message box always says a bug has cropped up etc. The screen goes white with a St. Andrew's cross through it (a giant capital X). I tried shutting down some of the sound options, but no improvement. To properly research the thing I should theoretically play everyone of the 200+ scenarios until it crashes, if ever.
Anyway, we're counting on you guys.

Same here, and it stopped crashing with that error after turning sound off. Was trying to speed things up and found sound on my own. Had the same 2 stack errors, plus others. Question: Had to edit the ini file to change multi thread to on (default off?). Was grayed out(not a choice during installation of 1.06update). Seems to run faster turned on (esp with pulse turned on). Why no choice on install? On win7pro with auto update notice. Hardware is Asus Rampage Black with newest Intel 4960x cpu and 32 gig ram. I run very large scns and the game is rally a blast and mostly stable. When I do have a crash, it mostly says out of mem. Have been a fan sence Harpoon was on 3 flopies or one 720K flopy. I loved doing my own databases sence pfedit and on, wish I could still do so. Realy a great game.
