[CTD] 1.05 Crash to desktop when loading saved game

Remember when I said that it was much better? I take that back.

Still better than MoM was before 1.3; but this is really a game-breaking bug.  I'm sorry.

Further update:  Apparently this appears to be directly correlated with how far along in the game I am.  If I abandon a relatively new game to reload or start again, everything is fine.  If I have a pile of cities and units and am far into the game, it crashes every time.

I too crash if I try to load a saved autosave game from within an active game, but if I re start and select load autosaved game, it usually seems to load up fine from the start menu.  Not sure if it is the same problem as yours, but it does sound like something's broke in the reload while in game department.  Not a game breaker, more of a nuisance for me.

This is happening to me too. I am crashing everysingle time when I try to load a save game while I am in game. Restarting and loading the save is the only way.

Yeah, I got the same problem after I downloaded the 1.05 update, I posted a thread about it. I can load all the saves I made before the update, but none of them that I made after.

This is happening with me for all saved games in the Campaign, except for the very first one which was the beginning of the campaign.  Sandbox saves are loading.  Tried reboot computer to clean memory.

Are you still experiencing any save/load issues now with fresh saves made under 1.06?

Reoccurence of crashes has been cut by half.  1.06 is much more stable - especially in the tactical battles.

Confirm a Crash After Reload in v1.06. Unfortunately, I immediately restared the game (I am having fun here ;) ) and don't have the crash data files...
