BETA 3C Lots of crashes

from Elemental Forums

Maybe it was just coincidence, but both betas 3A and 3B never crashed on my computer. This beta 3C has already crashed several times.

 

The first crashes were just after loading a game (without exiting to windows desktop first). But the last couple of times it just crashed to desktop randomly and without any error message.

 

Here's the dumped files, in Dropbox:

been about equally crashy for me, i find the building bugs in 3C most annoying

More crashes today, some of them with a "out of memory" error.

 

The game spawned me in a little island, with no way to get to other islands, besides getting a boat.

 

Let's say that I only managed to get it on turn 180 or something (even after getting the harbour, I didn't have the option to build a ship, until one time the option appeared. I have no idea what are the requirements).

 

That gave me time to build and research a lot, to the point the game started to slow down a little bit, when I zoomed out to cloth and vice versa.

Also, the game always crashes after loading a game without exiting the game first. It might be as soon as I load or a couple turns later, but it will always crash.

 

I have an nVidia GTX285, on a i7 920 computer with 6GB ram. All running in VIsta 64bits
