I'm stuck at a particular point in BTS, I've saved games, gone back about 20 turns and done things differently researched diff techs etc but no joy - the game gets to the same point in time and while processing the turn it crashes.
I get the MS msg Civ IV has encountered an error and shutdown etc. The basic info from the err msg is...
AppName: civ4beyondsword.exe AppVer: 3.0.0.93 ModName: cvgamecoredll.dll

I've attached my dxdiag results. I'm pretty sure my drivers etc are up to date.

It feels as though its run into a conflict or something at that point, I've loaded an old game with lots more units, cities etc and it runs fine so it doesnt seem like a memory issue or a graphics issue, but more like something in this particular game is causing civ iv to fail.

So, any hints as to what this could be and possible solutions or workarounds? I don't really want to go back 100 turns and find I get to the same problem, and I really wanna kick Huyana Capacs ass.

I can add the saved game too if anyone thinks it will help.

TIA

by golly thats done it!! thank you!! ooh i feel dumbed down after not thinking of that myself. :blush:

for some reason the in game update option was not working, but downloaded the individual patches and despite the glacial pace of 3.19 i'm back up and running, and an ass kicking is being prepared for mr hyuna capac or whatever his name is.
