Chieftain
Help I'm stuck. I am playing Civ III since March 2002 and I *never* got any error messages (except the cheating AIs in higher levels, they should burn in hell!). A week ago, I started a new game:
I'm using Civ III original english with 1.21f patch applied. I'm playing the Americans, the map ist standard size, with three other AIs (two are still alive
). I'm now in the year 2228 (the game never crashed), all my cities just produce wealth, I have a strong army and the damn Iroqouis Hiawatha needs a lesson now. I have 40 ICBMs pointing on him and over 140 Modern Armors ready to blaze into his fine territory. I did my turn and hit him very hard, I guess
After my turn Hiawatha sent 10 Nukes and only one exploded (thanks to my SDI). But when he started moving his Mech Infantry the game crashed after a few seconds back to the desktop, telling me something about "civilization3.e.exe crashed". This happened every time I reload the savegame.
I loaded a savegame where we were still in peace and attacked with just one nuke on his capital - the same crash occured.
Does anybody got this error too? I put the two savegames (2028 - peace and 2028b - nuclear war) on my webspace so that you can d/l them and check'em out, if the error occurs on your PC too. Grab'em here:
2228 Peace (217.586 Bytes)

2228 Nuclear War (231.689 Bytes)
http://www.jaas.de/temp/lincoln_postnuclear.zip
Please tell me if the game crashes too. Oh I forgot one thing: 100 years before there was very short nuclear war between Iroqouis and the Romans (only 4-5 nukes). I made some turns against the Romans together with the Iroquis (non-nuclear) and the game didn't crash there. After that war nobody tried to attack me again. This was very strange b/c I always had to defend myself over the whole game.
Oh and please no critics about my savegame
I lost this game long time ago - the only reason why I'm still playing is the "day of reckoning". The damn Iroqouis must die!
