Game Crashes on 1.17a

Sun Dec 09, 2012 10:51 am

Hey people, first time posting here so I want to make sure I get this right.

My version for AACW is 1.17a
OS is Windows 7 64-bit
This issue is the game will continuity crash on me every time I go to end turn, however I am able to reload the save and start from before the end turn phase.

Here is the log I suppose you needed, !Main log if I am correct.

I not sure if you need to know my computer specs but here they are anyway;

Processor: AMD Phenom II X4 830
Chip Type: GeForce GTX 6880
Memory: 8192MB RAM

Anyway no need to rush, any help would be grateful, and it would be even better if I could continue on this current save file, doing really well. =D

Hi DustinRush, and welcome to the forums.

This error, "The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process" is possibly related to Windows UAC or your Anti-virus denying access/change to your saved files.

What is your installation path ? Sometimes installing to the Windows default (Programsx86 or something) can be also a cause of problems

Maybe you can try to disable completely your UAC and make sure your AACW folder is exempted from your AV scanning

Regards
