Stuck game

from GalCiv3 Forums

Here is a game I'm playing that got stuck on turn change right after I've saved.

Here is the save, with debug.err and prefs.ini:
Stuck game

If it's as before, I doubt it can be reproduced.  Still, it happened a few times, so I'm submitting it.

As I'm writing, it's been there for 20 minutes.

 

 

EDIT:
Just tried it, and no, I can not reproduce, re-loading the save and hitting "Turn" proceeded normally.
Maybe debug.err has some useful info.

Another stuck. Same game, 2-3 turns later.

Another stuck game

 

There's definetely something happening here.

Reloading my debug.err file after a while stuck like that, I got this line:
Debug Message:  OnStatsStored failed (Error code: 16)

 

Hope this can be fixed :)

 

Some more lines after I exited the game: (I clicked on a few planets to see what was going on so maybe that's just normal stuff here)

Code
  2. Debug Message:  OnStatsStored failed (Error code: 16)
  3. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding PlanetWnd
  4. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding PlanetWnd
  5. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding GameMenuWnd
  6. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding VictoryWnd
  7. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding DiplomacyWnd
  8. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding MainGameWnd
  9. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding GameMenuWnd
  10. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding GameMenuWnd
  11. Debug Message:  Popup Manager Update: Unhiding MessageBoxWnd

  13. Debug Message:  MWin Strip Engine: Max used verts was 1000 verts
  14. Debug Message:  MWin Strip Engine: Max used verts was 1000 verts

Hello,

sorry for posting in this thread but I have this same/similar issue going on 284 turns into Milky Way campaign. I tried validating files and other tricks, but I am stuck.

Save File

Would appreciate if anyone could help around this!


Thanks

I am new to the game I just downloaded it from epic games. I am playing the tutorial and I get to 100 turn or a couple hours in and it freezes. I can still hear music and I can still click on things but it screen freezes frames and never comes back. It also happens randomly but mostly after I play for an extended period of time.

I am having this same issue. Is there a fix? I got to turn 468 and the Torian Regime is taking all the time in the world to proceed.

Same issue here, but with the "test edition", happend 4-5 times to me, earliest was at turn 3. The game doesent freeze per se, the Enemy Ai just never finishes their turn. Wihch means i cant do anything, neither load nor exit to the mainscreen. I have to exit to Desktop and restart the game. When i load the latest autosave, everything works fine again.
