  1. The problem is that, even though I can reload and replay a large chunk of the game, I'd like to know what caused the issue so I can avoid it in the future. I guess I was hoping for something other than "yep, save corruption happens, deal with it," even if the game is 10 years old. It's not like I'm not getting my money's worth, but I probably won't be spending a lot of time playing if corruption is inevitable. Unfortunate, because I'm liking the storyline. Do the other Geneforge games have similar save corruption issues?
  2. Am I really the only person who's having this issue?
  3. I bought Geneforge 1 as part of the Humble Bundle and have been having a blast, but ever since I reached the Icy Tunnels, things haven't been going so well. Every time I try to save my game, or trigger an Autosave by going to the next screen, the game crashes with the following error: Unhandled Exception: c00000005 At address: 0046261a I've done the following in an attempt to fix it: * Uninstalled and reinstalled Geneforge. * Updated Direct X. * Gone back to an earlier System Restore point. * Updated the shortcut to use Windows Compatibility. Things I have NOT done: * Updated my video drivers. There are none available for this machine, and besides, I'm playing a 10 year old game. That shouldn't matter. * I have not installed or uninstalled any software in the last several months, other than Windows updates. I've noticed I can reload earlier saves and play those just fine, so it really seems like this particular save file is corrupt. Maybe the code isn't handling the Icy Tunnels correctly? I'm running Windows 98 SP3. Any help would be appreciated.
