Crash to desktop

from Elemental Forums

On at about 200 turns on a new game with 1.08b since my old 450 turn game is no longer playable due to the 100% miss bug with spells (thanks for that). Windows vista 64, ATI Radeon 4670, 8gb ram, 2.2 quad core intel, 500gb HD. I have about 7 settlements and every faction I meet declares war on me withing 10 turns of my knowing them. Truthfully I don't mind that as I find it exciting and fun to have to build up my borders and create choke points with military settlements.

The problem:

I have now been unable to play for anything more than 6 or 7 turns at a time before the game crashes to the desktop.

My question:

How can I go back to 1.07 as clearly that was a more stable build to the game than this new "patch".

I had the 100% miss bug with my archer's once. The game may of crashed sometime after that but never that frequent.

Please open your debug.err file in notepad, and link the contents into a post here via pastebin. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.

The file can be found in My Documents\My Games\Elemental

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug log will be erased and recreated for the new session.

If there was a dump zip created in C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic (C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic on Windows XP), please post it via drop.io.
