So me and a friend Found a Yahoo answers that gave instructions on how to manually save Multiplayer games and load them , and for the most part was successful , so we played out game until low and behold the game froze , so we tried to load one of the autosaves , however now we get stuck in the staging area screen , with it saying under game options " Loading game" and not being able to hit the launch key.

Now if i kick my friend and a AI takes over for him it works , lets me load from where we left off.

Anyone know of a work around or a fix or why this is happening??

Thanks in Advance
 
Sounds like the save got corrupted when the game froze, you will have to go back to the save before that to start the game smoothly and just replay 4 turns or so.

I had a situation similar to this, though I'm not sure from your information if its actually the same or not. If you save a multiplayer game with a certain amount of AI slots or a certain amount of player filled slots, the game will not start/work properly without having that exact same amount.

For example, if you save a game the turn someone leaves, before they are "officially" AI, then you need someone to replace them when you reload it or it will not start.

Or from the other perspective if you save a game the turn AFTER someone leaves when they ARE "officially" AI and then you have them rejoin, it doesn't let the connect properly and the game will not work for them.
