[DONE] Unhandled Exception error

Game Support
1

In the game https://playyourdamnturn.com/game/36cd70f2-a701-4f0f-81a0-7b13914a5941
I get the follwing error when loading the game:

Unhandled Exception
Code: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
Error reading address 0xa8

The player whose turn was before mine dropped out of the game because he got the same error. A quick search in this forum revealed the last time this was reported the game was abandoned. So I have actually no faith this can get resolved.

Just wanted to provide some thoughts induced.

It could be a corrupted Civ installation of Player A making the invalid save file on Turn X. Then the garbage data (it may be only 1% of the save file) causes ACCESS_VIOLATION on a correct Civ installation of Player B making his Turn Y.

I see this speculation as lack of save reading validation from Firaxis devs for sure. But, this also might help

  1. Some external way, a tool to validate save files “more”. Don’t know if it exists.
  2. Every player verifies game files, probably re-install Civ. And then 1-2 full Rounds are reverted hoping Turn X wasn’t too far from Turn Y.

So I have actually no faith this can get resolved.

Thank you for your thoughts. The game is actually far advanced and it is clear who is going to win. So I’m not sure if other players in this game want to try to fix this.

We reverted to the player who was the last who played without the error and it worked. The game runs smoothly
