freezes up

[budd]

hi,

i'm playing a random game with the new graphics downloaded from the atg site. The scenario named graphic files. I played a few turns and saved and quit, now when i try to play and end turn i get an exception and an option to continue. When i continue it just hangs at miscellanous calculations. I reloaded the turn 3 times, always the same. I'll paste the error below and i also have an autosave if needed.
thx budd

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

For example:

<configuration>

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

It appears you are using hex coloring with those "mod" graphics. I'd turn off hex coloring and see it that helps.

[budd]

thx for the suggestion, I checked hex coloring and it was off, i checked it on and off again and tried again but it still hangs after the error when i hit continue.kind of like the new graphics, but can remove and restart if needed. funny thing is when i started the game and played the error came up but was able to continue without it hanging. Only when i saved and played a few days later did it hang after the error.Going to try to play with another of my saves, instead of the autosave see if that lets me continue. Thx for the reply. Anyone else have any suggestions i can try out? Will report back if my other save works or not.

[budd]

no different with any other save.

I am sorry to say i cannot support debugging user-created scenarios at the moment. I am sadly to buisy with the next DC title. If somebody can pinpoint the actual issue that is causing this let me know though.best,
best,

No worries, i can always go back to original graphics. I started the game with 208 then upgraded to 209 beta. I'll start a new game and see how that goes. If it still hangs i'll post in the thread of the mod. Thx.
