Default my game crashes :(

Hi

I have uninstalled the game and can not exactly remember the error, but I thought I would post here in the hopes of someone knowing what is wrong.

the game on my computer works fine, but after ages in to gameplay it simply comes up with a error and I can not longer play. I really cant remember exactly what it is, but it happens all the time at the same star date.

sorry I cant remember any more, just wondering if anyone else had this problem sa I really want to complete a game! but I cant get past this point!

An unknown error using an unknown mod, at a specific date, and and you probably don't have a savegame...

It could be just about anything, there. If it is happening during an AI's turn, switching them to manual control for that turn usually gets you past it.

hi

yes it happens in the middle of a ai's turn and I had the save game, and every time i ran it it would be exactly the same time on the same ais turn.

how do i change them to manual?

I will try it

thanks

Go to "game" pulldown - the very first on the left. Select "players" and click on the suspected AI race. If you are playing "classic" turns, it will become your new empire and you can experiment with AI ministers (under "crown" or F11).

It is a very rare occasion but sometimes Ai get stuck and crushes the game.
