  1. HI,

    I've got about 172 Gig left on my hard drive.

    My save fold was set to read only, I changed it and tried the game again, it did the same thing when I tried to save it. The message says " FAILED (save_game_dialog: on_command_menu): Segmentation violation."

    One other note, the saved game directory keeps coming up read only, even after I change it. I right click in Windows 7, uncheck the box, but when I check it again it still says read only. I've clicked apply, same thing happens. Any ideas?

  2. Hey Hubert,

    No this has never happened before, it stated last night.

    I check and there were no save files to delete, then rebooted the computer. I started the World at War scenario, as Allies this time, and when I tried to save it came up blank, then I got the segment violation box twice, then it crashed.

    Really strange.

  3. I've had SC Global crash on me twice in the last day. Last night I had played about 5 turns in Empire of Evil and tried to save it, got a segment error message and it crashed to the desktop. BTW - it didn't do any auto saves either.

    Just a minute ago I started the scenario again and as I was scrolling across the map it went black, locked up my computer and then crashed.

    I'm running Window 7 64 bit and have never had any problems like this before. Could it be something in the last patch?

    More strangeness! I started it again, was playing it when it crashed, but was in the toolbar, so I clicked and the game started from scratch again! I played a turn, and tired to save it, it WOULD NOT SAVE! Tried it a couple of times and it won't do it.

  4. Slim is considered to have been one of the best generals of WWII, and some of the others who also served there were pretty good.

    You seem surprised that Slim has such a high rating. I'd be interested to know why?

    Remember also that these HQs are good in the context of conflict in S.E. Asia. Although they can be shipped elsewhere, they're not very likely to turn up on DDay in France. But even if they had been there, I don't doubt that they'd have done just fine.

    Read Slim's book -t is great, and he was without doubt one the most honest and humble of the great generals in WW2 (or most other wars as well). He freely confesses his mistakes, and is refreshingly honest about things. The campaign to recapture Burma was brilliant, but not very well known or respected.

  5. Good going! I'm in Summer of 43 as the Allies, China is on it's last legs, Russia is in a very tough spot, U-boats rule the Atlantic waves, and the US just started it's island hopping campaign taking Tarawa. Looks to be a Axis victory for sure. I'm wondering about those Japanese units in China (21 ground combat units, plus HQ's & air units, plus 3 or more in Mongolia!) Sheesh!

  6. HI Bill,

    Probably not on this trip, but you never know. I've been in Sittwe and Mytchkina as well as Yangon (Rangoon) of course. I've seen the War Memorial that the Brits put up in Northern Yangon area, it's very nice!

    About three years ago there were still bridging equipment left on the banks of the Ayeyarwaddy in Mytchkina, but they've since removed it. Too bad as many families were living in some of the remains, and it looked really cool! I've got some pics of that.

    If I do I'll be sure to mention them when I return.
