Hello, I'm running CEAW Grand Strategy 2.0 on WinXP.
I'm playing as Axis. During the Allies turn, the game always freezes completely at the same point while resolving combat.
I had a look at the changelog for GS 2.10 and it looks like this bug still hasn't been fixed.
I can attach the save game file if necessary. As mentioned, the bug is fully reproducable and is of the highest severity, as it completely locks up the game.
I'm not sure why new features are being added before showstopper bugs like this are fixed.

Re: Game freezes during AI phase
It seems to be probably the same issue as reported here: viewtopic.php?f=33&t=38495 to which there is no fix available.
Re: Game freezes during AI phase
Are you trapping convoys so they can not move?
When playing against the AI give the convoys a little room so as not to cause the freeze.
This was altered in v2.10.

Re: Game freezes during AI phase
Sorry if I sounded angry in the first post, and thanks for the quick response.
No, I'm not surrounding convoys (although I have in the past, without any problems). It's occurring after battle between two corps units on the Soviet/Romanian border.
I have attached the save file in question. Just click "End Turn" after it loads, and watch the battles happen until it freezes at the abovementioned point. I don't care much about completing that game, but it would be good if the bug could be fixed anyway in case it affects me or anyone else in future games.

Ok.
v2.0 will not have anymore patches. There is v2.10 update.

Re: Game freezes during AI phase
Yes, I understand that. But I have looked at the changelog for V2.10 and it does not seem to have been fixed. The main reason I was looking to upgrade was to get rid of this bug. So, presumably the bug still there in V2.10 as well. There doesn't seem to have been any change in that part of the program. As it's almost half a gigabyte and my connection is very limited, I probably wouldn't download V2.10 in that case.
You can use the savegame to find the cause of the bug in V2.0, then you could apply the fix to V2.10 to make a V2.11.
Or, if V2.10 is compatible with V2.0 savegames, you can just load the savegame into V2.10 and presumably the bug will still happen.
