	Playing Saved Games Support Apolyton

Having problems with Saved Games. First, my control numbers change, from 9th Army to "64", my 2nd Support becomes "56". Secondly, I always notice a mouse lag upon restating a saved game.

But, the main reason I've decided to add a thread to this forun, is because my game has just crashed to desktop, twice. I restarted a saved game from last night & immediately noticed my cliffs were completely white, (no graphics), just before crashing to desktop with "Exception".

Is this a major problem with the game itself? If so, why did BHG release a game well before it was ready?

	I too cannot play a saved game! Inflate your Upload Space

Not a one! Over the last 5 days we have saved some dozen games and not one loads right. They freeze when the "world restore" process is going on.

What is going on here?

Hey Red Scorpion. I was glad to see your message because I am having the exact same problem (maybe we are not alone). One particular save game when reloaded has white cliffs displayed and immediately crashes to desktop. However, an earlier save of the same game also has the strange white cliffs but does not crash.

My system:
P4 1.8 ghz
windows xp
nvidia geforce3 ti 200 64 mb (latest drivers)
256 mb ram

Just finished a superb battle. Normally I'd be starting another game now & finish it off tomorrow. But I can't because of this "Save Game" Fault.

Sorry to hear you guys also have the same problem, Hope someone from BHG reads this thread & produces a fix soon. It's really ruining my enjoyment of the game.


My System is:
* P4 1.9GHz
* Win ME
* nvidia GeForce 4 Ti 4200 64mb (with latest drivers)
* 256mb ddr333 Ram

me too.

I had a big game going last night. Today when I tried to load it I got the exception fault error. The game then crashed and locked up my whole system

windows me
1.2 amd processor
256 ram
80 gig hard drive
tnt video card.

but the second game I saved, ran. weird.

Between this and the mess of desktop crashes, I'd have a lot of trouble reccomending an otherwise excellent game.
