GalCiv AP 1.52b Crashes
|
 |
|
 |
 |
I've been having some crash problems with AP, which on a recent game, have stopped me completely. Up until recently, AP would crash every couple of hours or so, generally in the Diplomacy screens, and I could simply load an auto-save, and keep going.
Now, though, I'm well progressed in a game, and after the crash, both my most recent and previous auto-saves both cause a crash when loading. I can load other save games, but my only other from this game is so old to not be worthwhile.
I've tried reinstalling GalCiv and AP (1.52b), as well as Codecs and Bink. The link that I've seen for codecs on this forum actually gave an error (The file ..\L3codeca.acm could not be opened), so I downloaded an ACE codec pack, which seems to include all the Media Player codecs, amongst others).
Below is the last few lines from my debug.err file:
Debug Message: No data definition files at path Mods\Data\UP_Issues\*.UPISSUE
Debug Message: No data definition files at path Mods\Data\*.RESOURCE

And here is the info from the .cra file from SmartException:

Debug information for each stardock app follows ....
If anyone has any tips or ideas, they'd be greatly appreciated, as I'm now a bit reluctant to start a new game in case the same thing eventually happens again.
Many thanks,
Ivan.

I've just tried that, and they replied with the suggestion to uninstall and reinstall. Well, I had tried that, but tried it again anyway, and guess what? It now works!
For anyone that has a similar problem and comes across this thread, my exact procedure was:
1. Reboot
2. Uninstall Altarian Prophecy
3. Delete all other Altarian Prophecy folders and files other than data/savegames
3. Reboot
4. Reinstall Altarian Prophecy
5. Reboot
Maybe the extra reboots helped...
Anyway, thanks for the email address advice!
