We're now at the point where we've fixed most of the crashes with easy-to-find causes, so we're going to need some additional help to find the trickier ones. Particularly since we suspect that most of those are going to be related to bugs in user-initiated transactions (both regular ones and in commissioner mode) - it's easy to find things that break when the AI does them, because there are dozens of AI's in any single game; things that are exclusively human-caused are a lot tougher to find with a small group of testers.
So, we now have a directory on the OOTP ftp support server where we can start collecting savegames from users.
If you get a crash, please zip up your most recent savegame (ideally, using weekly autosaves) and upload it to the ftp site at ootpsupport.com. The full directions are
here (obviously, substitute FHM for OOTP where applicable.) The FHM directory is /incoming/FHM/saved_games.
You'll probably need an ftp program (
FileZilla's good and free if you don't have one) to upload - your browser may not work unless you've already got an ftp addon/extension for it.
Once you've done that, post a message in this thread to let us know you've uploaded something, along with anything you can tell us about what you were doing and had done recently when the crash happened (particularly if the crash doesn't necessarily re-occur when you reload the save.)
