Are you a long way into the game? If you are, you're probably toast. I've gotten the same error a couple of time, and every time there was nothing I could do about it. Wish I had better news for ya. Then again, I could be wrong, for there are much more experienced troubleshooters here than myself.

Default Re: Integer Overflow

If I remember correctly, an integer overflow occurs when some programs try to use an integer larger than 32k (32767). What happened in SEIV to do that is a question for somebody who is very familiar with the code.

Do you have the latest patch?

Sometimes if you log in as the AI for that buggy turn and just hit "end turn", then the game will run fine.

Update to the Lastest Version of the game as suggested by others. If error continues, reinstall SEIV and then update.

If it continues, send saved game to Malfador along with detailed account of the problem.

If you do not have a disk, and are trying to update 1.49 you are out of luck. If you do not have the disk and are attempting to update Gold, my recommendation would be to buy the game and get the disk and do a fresh install from that. Then update to latest Version.

Good Luck.
