I know what AV is. My program has no option to exempt folders. I was asking if anyone had NOD32 and knew about this. I know what UAC is. I just don't see any way to change the settings in control panel. I run as administrator. The game is installed in a folder all its own - not program files\blah\bl...

I have Win7, and run as administrator. how do I turn of UAC? I see no option in CP... I use NOD32. I see no option to exempt folders. How do I do that? game is installed in AGEOD folder No other programs are running when I start the game. I run it as admin. I tried to save a game, but it didn't save...

Now I cannot resume a game or load a save. I get the message that the file is in use by another process. I have had it with this game. This is ridiculous. I bought four AGEOD games and now I want my money back!

See if that works.
You know, these are just experiments for now.

Thanks. Will do. It's odd though, isn't it? I mean, I have 16 GB and however much video memory a GTX 680 has

cotwell

I do not have a good idea, I'm afraid. Memory can be an issue. Have you allotted 75% to the game? (Do this from the Options Panel) Try that. Update to most recent patch. And let us know. I was using 50% memory, upped it to 75% and just got a memory exception error - insufficient memory. Haven't upg...

I am running Win7, but I also was running as administrator when the hang occurred.

I was playing the 1755 campaign with version 1.06c (the one on the backup DVD) I got to Sept. 1763, and then the game hung at end of turn. I got an error message to the effect that the save operation was in use by another process. Would that be related to memory usage? p.s. it's too bad too. As Brit...

Thanks, Durk

Do you mean the coastal guns? (Fixed artillery, I take it)

Thanks, Durk Managed to take Duquesne finally - I had five generals in the stack. Once that happened, a unit labeled "merchandise" appeared in the region. I ordered it into the fort, but I don't know what it's for (don't remember reading anything about it.) Also, I took Louisburg the same turn, and ...

Playing as the British in the 1755 campaign. I have been following Loki100 and Narwhal's AAR on this campaign, and trying to take Fort Duquesne. The French AI sacks Fort Cumberland starting the first turn. I was able to get enough supplies and artillery there to rebuild it as a base to strike out fo...

Thanks, Pocus. So far on lower texture settings (1 and 2) it has not crashed. But I haven't had much time to play lately. Still, so far, so good, except that oceans are just solid blue, even bumping the textures up to setting 2, so it looks a bit cheezy.

cotwell

pps: I am not running any non-standard setup. And I can run more graphics-intensive games with full AA, etc. Still, I will try your suggestion, since the last crash I do remember came in April - so the season textures would be changing. It does make sense in a way, although why this would happen on ...

cotwell

p.s. I have never changed any of the windowing settings in the little configuration utility - just left everything "as is" Should I be running some other options there?

cotwell

I will check this, but I have a GTX 680, and DX 11 (see the dxdiag attached to my previous post.) And only the very first crash had to do with texture mapping - that was before I updated the driver. All the multitude of other crashes have happened at the end stage of turn resolution. Last night I wa...

My computer is less than a year old. Here is the dxdiag output.

I attached the log files. The Saved game is larger than the forum rules allow. It crashes at the end of turn resolution. I don;t know what phase that is, but it's when you expect to get control back from the program. It crashes about two years in to the 1755 campaign, and the last couple of times, I...

I ran the debug, and got a crash with a memory exception error and an insufficient memory error. (I have 16GB, though....) The support team said they no longer support this game at their email address and that I must post to this forum. I have the logs and the saved game zipped up but nowhere to sen...

cotwell

Thanks. I'll try that when I get home today.

How do I do that?

cotwell

Usually it crashes at the end of turn resolution - this last time it just hung - I had the little spinny windows wheel. I could actually click stuff and managed to get to the desktop but when I started the game back up it immediately crashed.

cotwell

I installed the game off the disk - it was the old version: 1.06c. I made a new folder AGEOD - thought I'd put the other ageod games I bought in there too. But WiA still crashes. I haven't even updated it, because I was afraid to - it was the update that crashed before. I'm emailing the saved game a...

cotwell

But the game still crashes when running as Admin. So I uninstalled it, except even running a command prompt as administrator, I cannot remove the folder 'Wars in America'. I managed to remove the .ttf file it left behind and all the sub folders but not the main folder. So tomorrow I will try install...

cotwell

Running as Administrator made it so that saved game now DO show up in the Saves folder. I'll try that for awhile and see if it still crashes. If so, I'll re-install to a location other than the Program Files (x86) folder - where it is now. We will see. Thanks for all the help!

cotwell

Thank you! That clears things up a lot. A related question: what determines what I can spend EP on? For instance, sometimes there is the option to buy supplies, but after I've done it a couple times the option disappears. Same with some of the other options (siege guns and dragoons, for instance.)

cotwell

I have saved the game, but no new folder shows up in the Saves folder. It just crashed again, and told me to send you the "logs saved at:...." but then gave no location, and no new logs were saved - nothing with today's date. I haven't been running it as Administrator, but can try that. If that does...

There is nothing in the saves folder except the tutorial. I can load a game from the Load command in the menu (or I can resume my current game.) ???

Here is what the manual says about replacements reaching depleted units: The number of replacement strength points a unit may absorb (as a percentage of its full strength) is a function of the type of terrain it occupies as follows: 10%: Land unit in a region with an unbesieged town, 20%: Land unit ...

It may have just been an outdated video driver. Updated the driver and so far today the game hasn't crashed. I saved the game, though, and noted the path in the save message. No saved game there (except for the tutorial game) So....???

Upgraded from 1.06C to 1.10e, and had two CTDs the first day (today). I have the Main log file, but cannot find either a crash dump or the saved game. However, I am able to resume the game, so there must be a save somewhere, right? How do I find it and how do I get the info to you? Anyway, I sent th...

Thanks. It is downloading now.
