Hi guys,
I've got a bit of a problem. I've looked a bit through this forum (also the Civ4 technical support ) but couldn't find any help and since I only play FfH2 (0.22 patch "h") I thought I post it here.
My problem:
Me and my girlfriend are playing multiplayer games (or at least we are trying ...) and it is no problem loading a saved game before turn~180 (in both games we were playing). But when we want to load a game that's, lets say turn 200, the game crashes on my girlfriends computer during the loading screen, at "init graphics". It never gets to "setup players".. (it's the "a problem has occured" screen). My computer sometimes reaches "setup players" but afterwards it also crashes.
My girlfriends comp is an Intel core 2 duo E6600, Geforce 8600Gt, 2GB ram,
My laptop is an Intel core 2 Duo T5500, Geforce 7600 Go, 1GB ram
(feels strange though that my girlfriend's got a better computer than me
)
When a savegame doesn't work, it never works. The strange thing is this that sometimes it works loading the last working savegame play 5 turns save again, exit the game and load it again.
I hope it is not too confusing ...
I've never encountered this problem in my singleplayer games.
As mentioned before it is no problem loading a game in the early stage of the game.
our first game: huge Pangea, 16 players (hyborem and basium appeared during the game) normal speed
our second game: huge Pangea, 18 players, normal speed
If you need any more details just ask me and I'll post them.
Even if don't have a clue I want to thank you for reading all this boring stuff
cheers,
greatoleander
