crash to the desktop

I did as you said I Changed the userprogile txt to Try Windows yes,My fonts were not 96 and changed it to no avail I looked in Windows font and all the files are there HOWEVER THE FONT FILE IN THE GAME DIRECTORY IS EMPTY! cOULD THAT BE THE CAUSE !
Should I copy the fonts into that file ,reload the game or reinstall Windows

crash to the desktop

I did as you requested I changed the user file to try Windows yes,I changed my font to96 and I checked the fonts in Windows/font Changing the user file and the font to 96 made no difference All fonts were present in Windows but the font and Layout file in the game is EMPTY I reinstallled the game and there is still two empty folders Font and Layout inthe game directory I tied copying the fonts from Windows into the game an that did not work I wonder if I have a corruped CD or somehow something is not loading into the game

The listed fonts are quite common, so I would expect these to be available with Windows XP. Don't worry about the game fonts directory being empty. It is the same for me. The game will search the Windows directory, so you should not have to copy anything.

Unless the .ttf files are corrupt, it must be something else. I don't know how to tell a corrupt file, apart from just trying to open it. A Windows repair or reinstall could help, but then again, it may be something completely different.

Anyway, thank you for the crash logs. These make bug hunting much easier.

[J Bytheway]

OK, try the new version I have uploaded here, and see if that helps with the crashes.

follow up on crash to desk

I finally seem to have the game playing I uninstalled the game uses a registry cleaner and removed any mention of CTP 2 in the registry Reinstalled the game Added the English modification of the patch since the orinal patch does not recognize the game with Windows XP (known problem The game then plays normally However If I save the game and exit and try to load it will crash with the saved game but not the autosaves I can play on with the autosaves Something is still corrupt with the save procedure ? I trie the playtest version the last one dated in July and the game crashes right after clicking on the exec file If you want the crash text I can give it to you but it is different from the previous ones that showed graphic errors I also updated My Turtle Santa Cruz sound Drivers and My CD rom Drivers

[Flinx]

That is so strange Tomas. I have been using the playtests on XP for months and have never had any problems.

I would like to see the crash.txt, maybe the problem is just located in my codebase then in the Apolyton code base.
