[1.01]Crash when loading - Save attached

from Elemental Forums

could someone please test the attached save file. I can't load it. Whenever i click load, the game music skips for a few seconds, and then the game crashes to desktop about 10 seconds later, every time. I've tried this five times so far but it just won't work :( 

i have two autosaves which were after this, and they won't load either. So my trog empire is just gone if i can't get one of these files to load ;-;

Same here!

Main Savegame (178 Seasons played), AutoSave (176 seasons) and Previous AutoSave (171 seasons) won't load. Music takes a short jump after clicking the Load button. Game ist already crashed at that time (no response from fallenechantress.exe in task manager). still it takes another 10 secs or so, till windows bug report shows up hinting to a problem with kernel32.dll. XP SP3 by the way.

 

This is really anoying. After all the mess with Elemental: War of Magic I paid another 29 bucks to FINALLY get a playable game. Yeah, thanks for the 10$ rebate. It's a bloody joke, that I actually paid twice for the same game (fallen echantress is just an update to WoM imho, since WoM was never finished) and STILL don't get an usable product.
