For the past ~100 turns or so, whenever I order a hunter unit to attack a nearby animal after the screen pans to that hunter, I get a CTD about half the time. (And each time, I realize as I give the order that I should have known it was going to crash.) Any idea if there's something specific I can do to stop it happening? I've taken to saving every turn or two so I can actually make progress in my game.
CTD when ordering hunter units to attack animals

Good job on isolating that! I'm not sure who can correct it but it's a special cultural unit that wouldn't be hard to comment out for now. What culture generates that thing?
Can't replicate crash. Upload minidump and your user settings.
This save takes 45 seconds to process.
It is Renaissance with 12 players on Prince/Standard/Marathon
Handicap heavily affects turn speeds, as on higher level unit AIs simply have more buildings and units created on given era.
AIs are in Classical/Medieval so someone could pick harder handicaps.

It's not likely a crash resulting from bad code but from a bad animation on that unit. We don't have anyone who cares to work with animation so we will have to just take the unit out.
Well this crash doesn't happen for me.

Might be something more code based then. We'll see what Bill comes up with on that.
It's not 100% guaranteed crash; When I loaded the last save, I was able to make the attack on the fox without issue. I think maybe it's related to the messages / event sounds being queued up when I initiate an attack. At least, it seems to happen more often if the sable hunter comes up as the next unit and I order the attack on an animal that I happen to see nearby.
I can upload a "minidump" and user settings if someone tells me what that is and where to find it.

So looks like we already fixed crash somewhere in SVN.
You are using some version released just after 10103 (SVN versioning was weird - that is minidump used version of previous compilation not current one).
That is version released year and half ago!
V39 is SVN 10703
V38.5 is SVN 10103 or something like that
V38.1 is SVN 9916
This means on V40 release we have to get rid all older versions on moddb, so players won't download them and then complain about bugs, that were fixed year ago.
So zanthrax, this is what you get for playing outdated version (V38.5)
Looks like its V38.5 or even V38.1 - you didn't even download V39, which was released month ago or so.

I thought I downloaded the latest version when I downloaded the mod a couple months ago... It's honestly quite hard to tell. Can I keep playing the current game if I download a newer version? Because I don't think I've got it in me to start another play through; I started this one something like six weeks ago and I'm only, what, 28% or so through?
edit: I was going to ignore the fudge you attitude of the last couple of posts, but I guess the "we're above helping anyone if they don't reinstall daily" attitude means that I'm not even going to get an answer to my question. Oh well, I guess me experiment with C2C has ended early.
