Game freezes when loading league

Smelson · 03-26-2007, 01:08 AM

I created a league a couple days ago and have been playing it for a while. FaceGen works fine, no problems with anything. Now, when I try loading the league, the game freezes when it's loading the teams. Every time, it freezes at 25% and says "Loading Teams." Any reason why this is happening?

Have you let it run it's course?

How big is your league?

Does this happen with just one game or other saved games as well?

This is the only saved game it's doing this for...my league isn't big at all, only a 24 team league with standard minor leagues, and I have a fairly fast computer. I have tried to let it run its course for several minutes but nothing ever happens

How long exactly is "several minutes"?

Leagues can be fairly sizeable even without much history, so I'd suggest just letting it try and load for awhile and see what happens.

Several minutes isn't enough aparently. Let it do it's thing overnight if necessary. It may work itself out.

For what it is worth, I noticed something similar in one of my leagues... the game froze for a minute or two during load (I think it was at loading teams 50%). The league was brand new, 16 team league with all 5 minors and was still at the inaugural draft.

I never saw this at all during the entire beta test, and had made plenty of leagues like the above. I will see if it I can reproduce and figure anything out when I get home tonight.

Thanks Getch. Since we went public, I haven't had a chance to play with the release versions. Never saw anything like this either with pre-RC versions.

Well I tried it again, and after a few minutes of loading it came up with an error:

Microsoft C++ Library
Runtime Error!

The program has requested that you terminate due to runtime error

It said something like that. But it was a runtime error and the dialog box had Microsoft C++ Library as its title.

Judging from this. I'd need you to create another league EXACTLLY like this one. Noting the exact steps all the way through, in trying to replicate this problem. If we can replicate, based on your steps, we can get this fixed. Please post when you've done this. Appreciate your help in getting this resolved.

Smelson · 03-26-2007, 12:31 PM

Alright, I'll give it a shot

---Fictional League
---2 sub leagues, 2 divisions each, 16 teams total
---All minor leagues inlcuded
---I believe I had 1975 as the standard settings...I wanted this for money purposes, so I changed the league total modifiers (hits, home runs, steals, etc) to 1 to reflect stats that were modern day, but the financial settings were set for 1975, so the payrolls were much smaller.
---Inaugural Draft was held, amateur draft is held as well, all at default times/rounds
---Foreigner percentage is at 10
---I used an unbalanced schedule format, as well as enabling interleague play. ---162 game schedule.
---I made playoffs so division winners + wildcard made it
---All facegen stuff is what the defaults are...facegen hasn't been a problem for me thus far so I don't think that is what's causing my problems
---I started managing a team and also allowed myself to play in commissioner mode.

Let me know if you need any more information....the league had been loading fine for me in the past couple days, and I had no problems or slowdowns when playing it. For some reason, when I tried loading the league yesterday, it started having problems. And it's weird because I have a few other leagues saved and they all load fine too, including my historical league that has over 100 years of history and stats.

The only information we need is, when you try to create a new league with the above formats, are you able replicate the problem? This is critical for Markus to be able to see where the problem occurs.

Smelson · 03-26-2007, 01:19 PM

Okay, I'll try to do that. I had to go to work, apparently there's something called the "real world." But when I get back home I'll let you know if I run into the problem again

battists · 04-08-2007, 09:29 PM

Smelson, any update on this?

Smelson · 04-09-2007, 03:01 AM

Well, I couldn't reproduce the problem...every other league I had worked and every other league I created again has worked...so I'm not sure what the deal was. I just deleted the league and haven't run into the same problem again.
