Game crashed

Post by deadtorius »

First crash of the game and it could not have happened at a worse time :cry:
After several tries at the 1939 campaign, including one that seemed to be plagued with rain that I just stopped playing, I finally managed to win in Norway with 3 turns to go, and just as I moved into the last objective hex, the game froze. I did not realize it at first so I clicked the end turn button, well nothing happened so I was looking to see if some sneak had doubled back and captured one of the southern cities, thats when the MS error box appeared asking if I wanted to send a report to Microsoft.
Well after 4 tries and one success the game threw a tantrum and crashed.... Unfortunately I had a great initial landing too, manged to take the mid airfield and city without any arty about and even got the middle city before it spawned a garrison :). A hard fought game and it is probably harder than Panzer General ever was since you have to force your way up that narrow neck of land to the last city hex. I managed to save 4 ships of the Kriegsmarine that blasted everything up there or I doubt I would have made it. Perhaps next time I should pick a different campaign and give it a try for a change... just when success was so close and I was getting ready to turn in for the night too..... :evil:

Norway is tough, and was tough in PZ gen. I just compleed that scen in campaign as well. was able to get a decisve victory with around 10 or 11 turns remaining. Key was buying a naval bomber and seriously weken the british fleet with it, thn muster the german navy to attack and destroy it. Then with left over germ navy bombard the remaining units especially the entrenched AA batteries.

i did not have any crash issues yet

Fortunately that has been the only crash with the game so far, just was bad timing with finally getting a win in Norway

The game is saved automatically at the end of each turn (separately for axis and allies), so if the game crashes, you should be able to return to your previous turn. If you ever see a crash again, please try to repro it using the autosaved game, and if it repeats consistently, please send me the saved game for investigation. Thx! :)
