Hey Folks,
I like the game and it's fun to play, I have had it for one day, saved the game and went reload.
That is when I get this crash (attached) Using V 0.4.3
I've tried different windows compatibility modes etc. I'm using windows 8.1
Let me know if there's something I can do?
Requested logs attached!
Thanks!

Re: Crashing when loading game
It might be in the broken image link, but indicating what version of FreeOrion you're playing would be helpful.
Posting freeoriond.log and freeorion.log from immediately after attempting to load a game would also help.

Re: Crashing when loading game
I suggest you stop playing v0.4.3 and start playing the latest test releases. v0.4.3 is sufficiently out of date that investigating an issue in it is pointless unless it is reproduce in a new build.
Re: Crashing when loading game
It looks like the game started up fine, & loaded your savegame fine, the AI's started fine and submitted their Turn 37 orders, but your client crashed during MapWnd::InitTurnRendering.
Back with 0.4.3 I think we were still experiencing some invalid pointer memory corruption problems which could lead to crashes like this. Regardless of whether that's really what was up in this case, the current test releases are actually much more stable than 0.4.3, and you should just upgrade to the most recent. You'll lose compatibility with your old save file, though.
In about perhaps a couple weeks we'll also be coming out with a new stable version, 0.4.4, but I wouldn't wait on that.

Weird, I thought I had the latest download, I used the sourceforge link "download now"
I will check out the other downloads and see what I can find.

Re: Crashing when loading game
To be precise, the version I have is FreeOrion-v0.4.3-6281-Win32-Setup.exe
is there something newer, and where can I get it?
Thanks!

Re: Crashing when loading game
Found the link for FreeOrion-7311-Test-Win32-Setup.exe
Thanks, not sure why sourceforge is offering the older version.
