crash to desktop after 2400 a.d is the rule?

[Pegasus]

I would like to know if crash to desktop after the year 2400 a.d.
is the rule or not.
I got the higest score victory at 2301 dawn but I would like the other two kinds of victories
but after 2400 a.d after conquering a new city it crashes to desktop every time.I have only Sistray and Explorer in the background.
Might it be because I have already 47 cities ?
If this is the reason how may I be the only country on the map?
I have a Pentium Intel III 550.
Thank you

I've only played up to the year 2300 and then quit after achieving the high score victory, so I don't know about this 2400 bug.

However, here's something to try:
Change the Const.txt file so that the lines,

END_OF_GAME_YEAR_EARLY_WARNING 2200
END_OF_GAME_YEAR 2300

are changed to:

END_OF_GAME_YEAR_EARLY_WARNING 2300
END_OF_GAME_YEAR 2400

or whatever year you want.

I don't know if this will work because I never tried it.

Hmm... are you playing CTP 1 by any chance?

If not, well, I'm stumped... but then again I'm pretty new to this.

Let's not insult his intelligence now...

[Pegasus]

now I quit after reaching 2688 without no problem but I am playing
at medium level,not same before easy level.
I think the game(ctp2) before crashed because I had already 47 cities,won already higest score and almost scientific victory(48% of the map)
At medium level all that is harder to get.Now in 2688 I have the 2nd country not more the first.Might it be the game will crash later but I don't know now.Bye.

Didn't the endless clicking/waiting drive you mad?

[Skeeve]

2688!! Wow... you've got some patience there.

Were all of you cities at 60 Population?
