Matrix Games Forums

I was wondering if anyone had any information or ideas on a repetitive problem I have.
The problem is an end of turn crash, in Panzer Commander Kharkov presumably in the last turn of a scenario in a campaign.
Happens repetitively if save is reloaded.

Thanks

George

Hi George,

Could you post a zipped copy of the save file that causes the problem for you please? Or e-mail it to me at erikr@matrixgames.com. Also, please post the text from your most recent Log file from the game's /logs sub-folder so we can see what's reported there.

What version of PCK are you running?

Regards,

- Erik

Hi Erik
 
I am using version 1.01 of PCK.
 
Unable to add a zipped version of the save, I will email it to you.
 
Thanks for the help
 
George

George,

I'm sorry for the late reply here, but I wanted to let you know that we're evaluating the save file and if we can duplicate and fix the issue then the fix will be in the next update.

Regards,

- Erik
