Saved Game Crashing

Post by Phil »

I'm having some trouble with SPWAW 7.0. Since I installed it, I'm having trouble playing some saved games. It seems to be games saved at the end of a battle cause not only SPWAW to crash, but Windows also. Has anyone else been experiencing this problem?

When they added the two player campaign code into 7.0, saving at the end of battles broke, it is fixed again in the 7.1 beta, just don't save at the end of battles until 7.1 is released.
thanks John.

Thanks John!
That seemed to do the trick. Save-Game is coming up fine now.
I noticed the OOB files the beta has...... what changes are these?

What timing!

Lo and behold, my tongue in cheek reference to "it'll be done when it's done" was borne of ignorance. Oh, well. Never look a gift horse in the mouth.
