October 18, 2006 10:26:14 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
Please help! My gc2 installation worked for a while, but now crashes when I press TURN after loading my last Quicksave. Personally, I think its just the Thalians trying desperately to stave off annihilation , but just in case it really is my setup, below is my debug.err:

Hey this sounds like something I've had happen to me... (three times now)
The only time the crash has been so predictable is when I've punked some race out of all there money and there influence points... (Happened to me even after punking out a minor race) Now I don't know, but if thats what you did, you can give back *some* money and influence and sneak thru to the next turn... Well- It worked once for me...

I checked situation after the Quicksave, and one of my opponents has 1bc, so I guess that means he's broke. I gave him 100bc for free, but it still makes no difference. There's still the error. Should I try giving him more?

You might want to try to funnel him more money and influence points to him- thou if you didn't punk somebody out for all there money and most of there influence then your crash isn't quit like mine where...

I restarted the game from a previous autosave, and it worked. I'm now past the point where I kept crashing the game, so there really must have been something wrong with that particular Quicksave situation.

kryo, if you guys can figure out what went wrong, it may help when the situation recurs. But right now I'm moving forward with my game.
