Current game is crashing on turn 208-209 transition, regardless of anything I try with settings or changing stuff in my play in the turns prior.

The map is a large map, but I have played Huge maps with more civs that had more junk on them successfully well past this stage.

The game is not crashing on any of the usual suspects like panning across the map. It simply seems to crash when it is about to go to my turn, after all the AIs have moved.

Thus I'm pretty sure something is bugged out about the situation in this specific game.

I'm guessing there is no fix for this, and that this specific game is just screwed and I have to start a new one. But I figured I'd ask just in case. If anyone could try going to next turn on the attached save that would be appreciated.

I have the same problem with one of my games. Standard earth map, epic speed on emperor crashes every time on the transition from turn 374 to 375 when the AI's turn is about to end. I've tried going several turns back and trying different things but nothing changes it. Here's the save if anyone cares to give it a shot: View attachment Harun al-Rashid (Turn 374 Crash).Civ5Save

This is with the latest version of the game on a Q6600 (OC'ed to 3Ghz), 4GB RAM, HD4870 with Win7 Pro x64 in case anyone wonders...

aimlessgun I've tried your save and apart from the lag I'm getting,(on what kind of rig/settings are you playing this?) I've had no problem getting to turn 215 until I quit on my own. So the problem might be on your end (my save still crashes though I just checked it again).

On an unrelated note, how did you manage to stay alive with basically no military??:crazyeye:

EDIT: Since i could not continue my current game I decided to give yours a try to see what happens. I'm guessing you were going for a spaceship victory so that's what I'll be going for. In the mean time I'm trying to build some military for defense because right now anyone could walk all over India without breaking a sweat (still pretty surprised nobody even tried it yet!). Let me know if you want me to post a save beyond the point where yours was crashing.

What's with playing emperor? Mine crashes on move 399 - 400, (first move entering the future era), tried loading from several auto & self saves, even reinstalling civ5, same symptoms as aimlessgun & you. Running amd athlon quad core 2.9 ghz, 4g ram, hd5750, w7, huge standard map, all settings high. Sounds like a programming bug!!!
Yeesh, neck n neck in a space race!
 
Vanilla maps don't crash for me - all the way to the end, all gizmos firing.

ANY mods I download and play seem to get a memory prob around 1900AD - black screen of woe, civ V has encountered a problemo and needs to close.

And what is up with Worldbuilder. I never see a world I created in the game files after I make them.
