Is the game crashing every time the game starts, or was this a random occourance? Also, did the game crash before your upgraded to 1.11?

If the game is crashing regularilly, can you download a program called "SmartException", located under the "free stuff" tab in Stardock Central (available at www.stardockcentral.com). This will generate a report when the game crashes that will help us track down the exact lines of code that are causing the problem.

Thanks!

It looks like a corrupt save game to me.

I fixed a bug where save games were messing up an offset after an error either for 1.1 or 1.11; either way, the fix is in 1.2 if you want to update to that.
