Can't run this mod

[opblaaskrokodil]

I can run normal FFH fine and Orbis fine. I do fine up until starting the game. I hit play game and then go all the way through the various options. When I hit the final OK (when it should start the game) civ4 freezes.

I'm running on 64 bit Vista.

Any ideas?

Edit: Weird, I tried on CUSTOM game and it worked OK this one time. Never has worked for me with just Play game though.

Do you randomly select the civ you will play or the ones the AI will play?

Many of us have had the same problem as you have.

I have had a number of starts crash while the map is being created, but also some after my first turn. I'm still thinking it has to do with a particular civ/leader in the game.

The only thing I can say is try to start another game. This has worked for me, although it is annoying to have to re-start especially when you get a great starting position or you just get kicked out immediately.

Have you ever tried to load up the starting autosave again, save it, start up a "PLAY NOW" random game and load again your first game? Sometimes I could salvage a great start by this.

I read the problem has something to do with Jotnar (or some other civ, D'Tesh?) being picked up by the AI. It crashes on the first turn. Reloading the save won't fix it. Just make a new game and hope the civ isn't picked again. It's not too much trouble, but it is a little annoying.

I create a custom game and leave out the Kurioates, D'Tesh, Illians, Jotnar and Scions of Patria and that fixes it ... So the problem seems to be with one of those

Jotnar have some confirmed crash on progressing 1st Turn thats why Valkiron even thinks about make them player only next Patch.
