Hi Kael, I love your mod (most fun I've had with a strategy game in a long time) - I'm on my first game and my problem isn't quite as bad because I don't get consistent CTD's but I've been getting them every 3 - 10 turns approximately and they seem to be getting more frequent (now it's more every 3-6 turns).
I'm on Windows XP, normal FFH game on a Huge Erebus map, Marathon scale. I've got to turn 544. I have random seed on.
Too bad because it was an interesting scenario, but my question is, what would you suggest to if not eliminate, then to reduce these problems?
Smaller map? Faster game? Am I right in assuming that the larger the map and longer the game the more potential problems?
I wanted to experience as much as possible which is why I selected all 21 of the playable civs (all except Mercurian/Hyborem) and the hugest map - which is probably a mistake. The civs took a long time to build up and the game only recently started to get interesting but apart from the CTD's the lag and half minute waits between turns are making it unlikely I'll finish.
What kind of maps do other people usually play? If I'm going to make the map smaller and get rid of some civs which do you recommend as being less important and less game unbalancing?
