Bad allocation?

[biggamer132]

I'm not sure why this is happening, and this mod is the first place I've seen it, but my latest game keeps getting a fatal error when I try to save (with the reason being "Fatal error: Bad allocation"). Now, saving works some of the time, but when it doesn't and the game shuts down, I'm forced to reload the last save (often an autosave) to keep playing the file. It's really become irksome because I'm having a great time with my current game (I'm playing as the Persians, it's 500 AD, and I'm settling Central Asia to see how much of it I can fill in) and don't know how to fix it without never saving.

What you appear to be getting is a MAF error. This can occur when save files get over 1.5 MB.

To delay it happening again, turn down your graphics setting from high to medium or low. (In the options menu).

This just delays it not stop it.

Well, after searching through the technical support section for a while, I managed to get the error to stop happening, but the game was still slow, and I recently downloaded the last vanilla patch so that save file doesn't work period.

Problem solved.
