Game Crashes when creating a new custom game

jberg57 · 06-05-2025, 03:44 PM

I've tried creating a new custom game.

First time i thought it was a fluke. The game closed and I was away from the computer. Nope, crashed - my created game is nowhere to be found in-game, but I can see where the folders are created on my PC.

Second time i tried again. Same deal - highly customized game and it crashed. No loadable game, but folders are on PC

Third time i didnt highly customize, just tried to get it started and I'd modify later. Nope - crashed again.

So...nothing for this?

Sorry, missed this before.

What sort of custom games are you trying to create? Historical custom, fictional custom, etc...? Did it crash going through the wizard (if so, at which step)? Or through the advanced menu (was it while clicking on a tab, or after clicking create game)?

I know you mentioned not highly customized, but just wondering what the general options you we aiming to use, it could be something in there causing the issues. Depending on the above, we may need a trace file (https://forums.ootpdevelopments.com/...03&postcount=9) to further understand what's going on.

As I said, Custom game - it crashed every time. Went through Wizard. I love highly custom games. However, the last time i just did a basic custom game and it still crashes and does not let me open it up. There is no "last Game" entry as what I made, however there is a folder for it on my computer...
