  • Unable to load saved game

    Playing as Americans in Huge World map default scenario (the one that shipped with the game) with 16 civs.
    I got as far as 1720 AC. Saved the game and quit.
    Now when I try to load it here's what I get:

    DataIO operation System Error: TILE

    In a messagebox with a OK button on it. I click OK but the box keeps on coming back. Not possible to resume game.

    I have win 2000
    Athlon 1.2 GHz
    256 MB RAM
    Geforce 2 Ultra
    Sound Blaster Live

    Anybody at Fireaxis interested in taking a look at the saved file? see if you can figure out what went wrong?

    Thank you

    I am getting the same bug, but instead of TILE, I get CITY.
    I managed to get to the year 1955.

      Same problem for me, but it was on a large map at 210 AD! The system would just stop responding. I decided to just reinstall and see if that worked.

        Reinstalling didn't fix it. I haven't tried all my saved games, but the ones that I have tried lock up the system.
        (CTL-ALT-DEL shows "not responding") This worked fine until yesterday, and I have no idea of what may have changed. No new software installed.

        Any ideas?

          Can you zip and post the saved game so I can look at it? Thanks.

            Make sure that you have free space on your C drive. I ran into a similar issue... It would try to load save games, get to about 57% and then spit out an error about some given dll. When starting a new game, I could play for a while then it would lock up on me. I have CivIII installed to my D: drive, but I figure it's some issue with Civ using swap space on the C: drive. I freed up about 500 wasted megs on my C: drive (more than enough by far, I'm sure) and I haven't had any problems with it since then.

                PS: I noticed you tried to contact me a few days ago about this problem.
                Sorry I couldn't come back to you right away. I've been busy...

                ... playing Civ 3 of course.
