Post subject: | (Permisions Issue?) Saving/Loading game causes crash |
Greetings!, May I first say congratulations on creating such a a well designed 4x RTS. Its been a long time for me, since BOTF, and its memory leak issues. I have a bit of a problem, however, running windows 7 as admin and running under compatibility mode for win 98 I can not save a game or access auto save files in the initial program menu to load. IN both instances the application crashes when I either a. click save in the menu bar at the top b. crashes when I click the '...' browse button to search for the save files. I was not asked on install to direct a location for save files either which is strange as two of my housemates have installed the same game from the same file on PC's running the same operating system . Any thoughts on the matter would be appreciated, Many thanks and keep up the great work |

Apologies I've solved it myself. Turns out the problem was directly related to the running in 98 compatability mode. As soon as I removed that it worked like a charm. Probably best to keep this up as a note to others form the BOTF thought process of 'it's a pile of ****, best run babbage compatability mode'. Take care. |
