I've created a couple of different maps using the CivIII Edit app, and whenever I load one of these maps, CivIII crashes just about every turn in the game. Anyone else having this problem?

I have been having a problem on the game in general (at 1.21g?). If I send a unit to explore vast uncharted areas, the game will lock the whole system as I drag the mouse to the black areas I want the unit explore.

I wonder if that is what is happening to you on the editor maps?

No, it's more like the turn ends and bam! goes to black and then the desktop fades in with a dialog box telling me CivIII has quit.

Juan, it's the map/scenario/player editing app for CivIII which has been out on the PC side for awhile now. You may remember me bitching about it not being released at MWSF.

Have fun. Let me know what you think of it, and whether it causes crashes for you. Except for the crashes, me likes a lot.

I'm up to 1960 in a created map, no crashes or problems at all.
