CTD on Autosave
I'm currently running v1.02 on WinXP. My puter is a Dell Dimension 4600, 2.8GHz Pentium processor, 512 Mb of RAM. I'd been playing Ireland with no problems several times (well, problems with Crusades expectations, but that's been documented). I switched over to playing Byzantium. Options were set for Autosave every 10 months. Happily playing my game, when all of a sudden...CTD. I restarted, and selected "autosave" for loading. The autosave file was empty. I couldn't select a kingdom, duchy, or county to play, as none were listed in the menu. Went back to "oldautosave" and it loaded, played fine, until the next time to autosave when....CTD again. Same symptoms on restart. Tried rebooting my puter, everything.
Thought, "Gee, well maybe this is a bug specific to Byzantium." Went to playing Castille. Played okay, until after a while...CTD at autosave (by the way, it never gets to the point where it says, "autosaving" at the top of the screen--it just dies). So, I loaded "oldautosave", and am now MANUALLY saving, as well as autosaving...with no further incidents at this time. Manual saves seem to work okay, if the autosave CTD problem continues to show itself, I may disable it entirely, though I'd rather not...
