Okay I have a Zire 71 and I got it installed then when I click on the icon it freezes in a white screnn and does not respond to stylus/buttons etc. I have to turn it off then it soft resets and I never even get into the game in the first place.

Zodiac 2, ended one game, started another. Crash pretty soon after accessing the details. Crash Pro installed and the message is:
"10 400000 1F 2016A3E4
2016EB009FE518F2"

The spaces in the above are impossible to make out. Hope this is helpful, nonetheless.

Gatewood,
I was previously experiencing this exact same error. At the suggestion of Arthur (and Barbara I think ), I completely uninstalled and re-installed VS and haven't experienced any issues since. It may be a corrupted file that is causing the issue. What I don't understand is why a fresh install seems to fix the problem and it doesn't come back (or at least haven't for me yet).

Here is Arthur's leading theory on that, Randy (and he would like some volunteers to test it):

Quote:

I have had one report of a possible workaround, I would be very grateful if a 'crasher' would try it:

Uninstall the game completely. Then reinstall and before you ever start a new game, enter your reg code. Then exit the app and reenter it and start a game normally, etc.

Please let me know if this works, anyone. The theory is that the process of registering is corrupting an existing game-in-progress, and registering before a new game was ever started might circumvent that.

Barbara,
I know this is my circumstances but I reinstalled the game (after getting the errors) and played unregistered until I was forced to register (because of upgrades). I then registered, noticed a delay between registering and being able to buy the upgrade but then went back into the game. I haven't had any problems with it since.

The only thing I can think of that was different was that after my reinstall I chose NOT to turn the tutorial on. I will reinstall VS and try this, if I can ever get it to crash again I'll try Arthur's method and report back.

I've done that twice. It fixes it to uninstall and reinstall but as soon as you have to start a new game the next time, the crash happens again. I have installed the one that was in one of the threads called "VillageSimFixed" and am trying to see if that one does it as well.

Did you try the procedure that Arthur suggested earlier in this thread? It would help him to know if that works or not (if you're still having the crashes).

hi. I have installed the game on my treo 650 a few days ago and cannot go for more than 5 mn playing ! it crashes (seems to me, at least) as soon as I try to teach more than one villager to do someting (ie one at the building table and one harvesing). I have to start my treo entirely (I get to the Palm os welcome screen) it turns off the phone etc... When I get back to the game all villagers are gone (0 villagers 0 food) and I have to start a new game ... which ends after 10 minutes. I registered the game before evene playing with it (entered the code before actually starting the first game !) . Should I try le new donload you gave a few days ago ? or anything special with treo (I have seen several others treo users messages...) Thanks for your help, it is very frustrating !!!
