Europe aflames crashes

[Waltz]

I am trying to do the third turn in my PBEM game and I have had about 6 crashes so far, there is no real consistence beyond opening a sub window, so I will try and open the air command window of the formation window and sometimes it just crashes.

Log file attached for last one

[zakblood]

any logs from your AV (anti virus) or firewall / spyware protection etc, to to see if any of these have stopped or interfered with it?

[Waltz]

Had a look through them, nothing there I haven't had any problems with other scenarios (well FITE2 used to crash once in a while but after the last patch that stopped)

I'm wondering if it's the same window each time or if it's any window that crashes.

[Waltz]

It's different windows that sometimes work and sometimes crash, I manged just now to get as far as hitting the resolve combat but it crashed in the middle of resolving the combat

Are you running really low on Memory?

[btd64]

Yes, memory can be an issue and sometimes the processor. Depending on the age of the computer. This is a monster scenario....GP

I got 16Gb of Ram...I run a relatively meaty gaming PC as I do like to play games with nice graphics as well :p

[larryfulkerson]

What operating system are you running? There are some operating
systems that won't support TOAW IV. I think Windows ME is one of them.

[Waltz]

Windows 7...I have been playing TOAW4 since release I have never had this much trouble with any scenario before. I had the odd crash with FITE before the patch otherwise I can leave it open running a scenario for a couple of days without any issue

Maybe the file I sent you is corrupted if everything else works fine ? I could redo my turn and resend ? Didn't do anything major in that turn just moved stuff around

We can give it a shot, I had a few crashes in the past but not quite this bad

[larryfulkerson]

I'm running WIN7 too and I'm not having any problems to speak of. I don't
remember when I last had some trouble. I'm sorry, I don't mean to rub it in
but I'm just saying that it's probably not something to do with your operating
system.

We have to knock all these issues off thats why I think it's something top do with the scenario

[Ammann]

In which turn are you?

I also play EA and it runs trouble-free.

[Waltz]

Turn 4, my opponent re did turn 3 and it worked a lot better after that.

I suspect there may be a link between saving and crashing, I normally save regularly as I am doing my turn and I noticed if after saving I completely quit out the game and then start it up and reload the turn I dont appear to have crashes, it's something I suspected when I had issues with FITE in the past and it felt like it made a difference this time
