jackharry Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I frequently get the following error message which is followed by a crash to dektop. It occurs at random, i have seen no particular pattern, and I will be always be able to move past the point it occurs when i try again from the saved game. If I play for a couple of hours at a time I can be fairly sure that it will occur at least once. "Failed (draw_unit_text_to_buffer_dc) : Sementation violation" The above message is the most common, on one or two occassions the following has appeared: "DirectX Failed (draw_sprite_on_map_surface) : dderr_invalidrect" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhughes41 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Try putting game in windowed mode. I seem to get these CtDs more when i have slept machine or alt-tabbed away and windowing helps with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Thanks for the report Jackharry and this is unfortunately one of those types of errors that is very difficult to track down when it is not repeatable (as you've also already noticed). I'll keep my eye on it and hopefully I'll catch it under the right circumstances to make the necessary corrections. Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackharry Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Thank you, I will just have to keep saving two or three times per turn, nothing worse than getting right through all your moves, and then it crashes right just before you end your turn and before it auto saves!

lhughes41 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Did you try going to windowed mode? Definitely cut down my frequency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lofty12 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 ive had 3 crashes as well although different errors than this. The program just randomly stops responding during my turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
