My game crashes after a random amount of turns played.

from GalCiv2 Forums

 I have the Ultimate Edition, and it works just fine; but it crashes after a few turns. Is there any way to remedy this? Thanks for any help.

Please open your debug.err file in notepad, and copy/paste the contents into a post here. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem. The location you'll find the debug.err in varies depending on which game you're playing:

Dread Lords: My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2
Dark Avatar: My Documents\My Games\GC2DarkAvatar
Twilight of the Arnor: My Documents\My Games\GC2TwilightArnor

Older versions may store the debug directly in the location the game is installed at.

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug will be erased and recreated for the new session.

I'd like to add that this wasn't "immediately" after the crash, but I didn't load up the game at all after it occured. Am I going to have to get the crash to happen again first?

Your debug.err doesn't appear to show any telltale signs of known issues (not crashing during a save so it shouldn't be a memory issue, and there are no video driver errors at the end), though you might try updating your video drivers regardless since they're six months old. If that doesn't help, please contact [email protected] and they'll pass the case on to the developers to look into further if need be.
