Game Crashes with New Update
 

Hi Jeff,

I installed the updated version of the game and when I select historical mode, the game crashes after the Manager Setup screen.

Please help.
Thanks.

Haven't had any setup crashes with this version in a lot of historical test games, that sounds like you might have some damaged data. Try re-installing the update (or if you're on Steam, go to FHM11 in your library, right-click on it, and select Properties, then Installed Files, and then click on Verify Integrity of Game Files.)

If that doesn't work, let me know the exact setup (year and options) that you're trying when you get the crash.

Hi Jeff,

I tried but it didn’t work. For the setup, I am starting with the 1973 historical season, using end of the season rosters. Also, I do not select a team to coach or be the GM as I just want the program to auto sim the season so I can review the stats. No other options selected (everything else was default options).

I've tried that exact setup, and had Adam do the same, and it worked properly for both of us. So it seems like it's something with your game specifically. If you've already verified the file integrity/updated, I'm wondering if it's something that's preventing the game from being created. Can you create another type of game (standard, custom) or historical in another start year without getting the crash?

Hi Jeff,

I tried to create a standard game, but it crashed during the process of “save settings”. I tried another historical and it also crashed (seems to be crashing right at the final phase before it completes the process). The only thing I am able to do is load a game I created before the updated version.

That sounds like you might be low on disk space, or Windows User Account Control isn't letting you write to the disk for some reason. Check the disk space first, and if that's OK, then try starting the game (or the Steam client) by right-clicking the icon and choosing "Run as Administrator".
