This is btw: hapens on starting new game with shininhg new v1.05.068

~SDC~

Yep, happend to me

When i try and add a build que in the governer screen :/

I have emailed a copy of the debug.err file

Hope it helped

FYI: Just upgraded to 1.05.068 and I always get a CTD after I have selected all the civ intelligence levels/alignment and have continued to start the game. As soon as the counter reaches 100% I get the crash.

I also get the CTD when the loading counter reaches 100% for my last 1.04 saved games.

Mine crashes to the desktop before i even get to start a new civ... as soon as i click the desktop shortcut or the

~SDC~

Oops... accidentally hit ctrl+enter.... as soon as i hit the desktop shortcut or the start game button in the menu that pops up when you put the cd in the screen goes black and then straight back to the desktop

~SDC~

I just upgraded to 1.05.069 and instead of crashing at the race setup/saved game load screens, my game now crashes a few seconds after i double click on the icon or play from the cd menu. :notsure: :notsure:

I guess these CTDs is the reason 1.05 is not on Stardock Central.

For those of you getting crashes after the intro movies or during setup, you're having the problem with SDC. If you can't force it to update with Refresh Application Data, then re-install SDC.  Then you'll have to re-install Gal Civ to get those files back. 

the new patch fixed it for me, they did it a lot quicker than i thought they would be able to too

~SDC~

I just did a complete reinstall. SDC Galciv and all from scratch. Its working great now. Thanks for the help, you cant beat the customer support here.

Yep after updating to 1.05.069 the governor queue does not crash any more ...

~SDC~

I abominate having to reinstall things, so I'll probably wait a couple more updates just to be sure it works.
