Map A little artisanal map... with 1225 provinces

does this lock anyone elses' game up? Everytime I pick this map, my game locks up like crazy....I don't get any type of error, just that it locks up and I have to ctrl-alt-delete....then shut the program down via processes.

I've played 70 turns without big problem testing this map with 21 nations, the only I had was a crash to desktop or two when using one of the "gateways of the ancient" (it seems it's a problem when the program draw a very big movement arrow, once the game is reloaded the arrow is here and the movement work).

It's probably a memory or processor issue as the map is very big.

I cannot even get it to start up, though....When setting up your game, right after you choose your map, it should load up a picture of the map. Right before that pic loads up, it locks up.

It most probably is a memory or processor issue like Twan said.
There's quite a long wait for the map after you click the name when creating a new game.

If it takes so long to load that you think the game froze, I think you should just give up

, you could probably get it to load if you wait long enough, but hosting times will kill you eventually.

Thus spoke a man with 1.5 Gygabytes of DDRAM. (Only a meagre AMD Athlon 64bit 3000+ processor though

)
