[1.3] crash turn 300, new game 10x8 map 15 start

from Elemental Forums

updated eleental, deleted the save game folder, started a new game on my four continent map played on to turn 300

had killed one ai, ws working on extermination of second, (could have wiped out three others , but were same alignment(kingdoms), so treatied them and married two of them, and ws killing magnar(they had declared war on me over 50 turns before and was on another continent.

also noticed during play even with each city having a unit with 80 prestige stationed in it when I had 10 towns I was getting approx 10 pop per turn, BUT when I built my 11th town to grab a shard on an island even with the new town having a hero with 80 prestige and EACH of the other towns ALSO having a hero with 80 prestige, the pop growth for EACH town was 0.1 so for all 11 towns I was getting 1.1 pop per turn.

and also noticed that approx 10-15 turns before crash, the event sounds during tac combat stopped playing as in I could not hear them, but the background bird tweeting was still playing.

zip file created, added dxdiag and save games

I would have expected them to have fixed all of the engine bugs by now. Unless it's stuff they forgot or miss in patching WoM from the latest FE build.

during the game I had only one battle where I had to use the next turn because my units would not respond to the commands.

and for further info another crash locking up elemental waited for 10 minutes before end tasking in task manager,

had re-booted computer, loaded elemental, loaded the save game (turn 296) played on to turn 437 when I got the usual crashed app error trying to read memory at 0x0000000d

after ending the elemental exe (which was using 1 core of the cpu at 100% and the total ram use was LESS that 45% on 4gb winxp sp3 32 bit)the zip file existed, then added the dxdiag & save games to the zip

and I am treating elemental as an extended beta  software as the program stability has only slightly improved since beta 3a with the theory that a stardockker does look at and download these dumps that I have been generating.
