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 :crazyeye:

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. :crazyeye:

I loaded a savegame where we were still in peace and attacked with just one nuke on his capital - the same crash occured. :crazyeye: 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) :love:

2228 Nuclear War (231.689 Bytes) :nuke:

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 :D 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! :mad:
