Kick to Windows when i Colonize.

from Stardock Forums
Hi,

I started a new game after getting the latest build and things seemed to be going better than before until i attempted to colonize a planet. Every time i tried it kicked me to the game manager again.

Yikes. That's not good. I sure hope I ddin't leave out a file or something. It worked here but then again, I know I have every file.

I'll look int this in the morning.

If you can post your debug.err file, we can see if we're missing a file.

The new build always kicks me when I try to colonize my first world. The previous builds never crashed on me. Also, I hear none of the in-game music, but I do hear the event sounds.

Crashes on colonizing for me too. My system's XP Pro, 1.0 gHz Intel, GeForce2 MX, 256M RAM. My debug.err doesn't seem to contain anything like what the others report, so I'm wondering if I'm looking at the right portion of the file.

I'll post my debug file when i get home (currently at work). If it helps, here's my machine spec.

Win XP Pro, AMD Athalon XP 1700+, 512 Meg Ram, Gforce 4, latest patches of pretty much everything. Very few other things installed. Office, Visual Studio .Net, Photoshop (it was just rebuilt on Saturday)

Mine is also producable from a AutoSave. Just to make sure it wasn't that game, I started a new one and It crashed as well.

Hope it can be fixed easily :)

Mine crashed when I tried to colonize my 2nd planet (thus making 3 planets owned by me ;p ).

Thanks guys, I think we've figured it out based on your descriptions - if an event pops up, it's crashing. Only happens on the release builds. Working on a fix now.
