Game hang in 1.06, can reproduce, Vichy problem?
The game hung at midnight 1 sep 1943 while I was playing as the Soviet Union. Just said "Autosaving" on the screen. Left it for 10 minutes, but still nothing happens.
I can reproduce this. If I load the old autosave from 1 aug 1943, it ALWAYS hangs at 1 sep. This even if I don't do anything at all, enough to just sit and watch the time pass.
Tried again with autosave turned off, then hung at 15 sep, have not tried this more than once.
Another thing I tried was to save the game every fifth day during August. I can then load the game saved on the 10 aug and 15 aug, but if I try to load 20, 25 or 30 aug it hangs immediately after loading the game. This I have tried twice, saving the games several times during the month, very similar result the first time.
What, I later noticed, had happened between the 15 and 20 august was that France had made Vichy France it's puppet. Tried removing Vichy France from the save file, and "transfered" all of Vichy France's provinces to France, and I could load the save game from 20 aug.
I have saved all the saved games and can e-mail them if wanted.
Difficulty is set to Normal, and A.I. agressivness is set to Weakling. The scenario played is "The road to war".
Here is the rest of the info is asked for in the "Rules" thread:
Directx 9.0b, Athlon 2500+, 512 Mb RAM (tried with and without swapfile), Win XP sp1, Midiman M-audio Delta Audiophile soundcard, Nvidia Geforce FX 5600. Anything else?
