Forge Maps Causing Runtime Error on Startup

Maps causing game crash

Hi there,

I recently started using galaxy forge to create some new maps. I saved the maps in the correct location, the actual game directory C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Galaxy .

I'm updated to the newest patch. 1.14.

Whenever I start the game, it fails to startup and eventually leads to a runtime error message. When I remove the map from the game directory the game works fine.

Any help?

I've tried fresh installs of the game and the patch, along with maps that have been tested to work on other people's systems that I downloaded online. They cause the same effect, so its not something I'm doing with the maps or with my copy of Forge.

Would appreciate any help, thanks!

the map format has changed AND the devs did note bump the map version number so WE COP THIS PROBLEM.

the only solution at present is to wait for the next version of galaxy forge then re-make the maps.
