Mammoth scenario crash

I should've known you'd show up here Blake!

Hello all,
I recently discovered the Mammoth scenario from the folder bestnet2. I always thought it was some kind of prehistoric scenario but it's a sci-fi one. Anyway.

The problem is i can't pass the second turn. At the end of it, it crashes. I checked for solutions online and i found only one that advised to save the game in the main folder of civII but this is a poor solution since all the special units and building disappear...

Do you have any solution to fix that? Or there is none?

Thanks to let me know!

Was this the scenario where the Americans were led by a fringe, far-right-wing, Third Party candidate from the '90's, but the rest had centuries-dead leaders, the intro text talked about some knd of energy fied retracting, allowing exploration, had a neat array ofvery early community custom graphics for near-future sci-fi units, city styles, and improvement icons, called the Government in the Communism slot, "Klintonism," and had a Barbarian unit that was an eyeball on a green stalk called a, "Krudosaur?" I believe there was a scenario, of some sort, in Bestnet2 matching that description, but I don't currently have MGE installed.

The scenario description:

In the year 2250 AD, the great magnetic flux field that had influenced the ​

huge terran world of Mammoth for centuries, ceased when the tremendous ​

flares that had been eminating from the star Adania went out, and the star ​

took on a Sol norm pattern. Now the human colonies which had been ​

established one hundred years earlier could expand beyond the limits imposed ​

by the former flux field.​

​

Recommended: Any. Mavericks (former Americans) start w/less.​

In the scenario USA 2010, America has become a christian theocracy under president Alan Keyes, and the rest of the world uniting to contain American aggression. Mammoth uses the same graphics and unit/tech/building names, which is why you're remembering USA 2010. As you say, they are near-future themed, and it's a BESTNET2 scenario. And yes, communism has been renamed "Klintonism". Funny given that in hindsight Bill Clinton was arguably the most conservative Democratic president since Woodrow Wilson.

The eyeballs on green stalks do not appear in either of these scenarios, though they do appear in a few others, e.g. Zeus. Never heard of Krudosaurs.
