The alpha 6 version crashes randomly (it occured as early as turn 10 and as late as turn 200). It's happened while playing as the heyoun and cartare. When I looked at the error report, it said something about an event error?

forgot to mention . . .
the times it happened occured right before a battle, right before an invasion, and I think right before the extinction of a minor race

I've attached a saved-game-file that crashes the game because the next turn is elimination of a minor race.
Playing version Alpha 6 under Windows 7 with Khaoran Empire.

thx. SirP will take care of it. Always informative is an indication if you were able to reproduce the bug each time you reload the save game.

Yes. Sometimes, the minor race was not eliminated after the bombardment and the game didn't crash.

Thanks for the bug report. I could fix it. The fix comes with the next update.

I love the improvements. This game is great!

However, I have found a consistent crash. I am playing the Khaoron race. If early in the game I am aggressive and destroy a minor to extinction, the game immediately crashes. I have consistently been able to repeat this crash in many different games, and after save reloads.

I get "Birth of the Empires has stopped working" Then two choices both of which close the program.

Here are the *further details.*

I have been playing the races in order. I have played at least 10 games per race before moving on. Of course not all races are meant to be played as aggressively as the Khaoron. So I do not know if this bug is consistent with all races or just K. I did not have this behavior with version 5, only 6.

Again, great game! Jeron


Sorry - I just saw it was already reported. I missed that one first look. Jeron.

well..you're right - it's nothing....just see here http://bote-forum.square7.ch/wiki/index ... e=BotE.log

The issue is known. BotE always tries to find specific names of planets. If there is none, random planet graphics are used.

Indeed there's no need for these messages displayed in the log (actually they do in the current state of the project).

When SirP anytime want to he'll delete these message but otherhands it could be useful sometimes. BotE is still in alpha-phase.

so don't mind :wink:
