major freezing issue

from GalCiv2 Forums
Everytime i play Dark Avatar the game starts to freeze up when the combat begins. after the first few engagements the entire game is a choppy mess. Even scrolling becomes an issue because of how slow the game runs. However, I have not experienced this in Dread Lords.. I can play dread lords for many hours and have a large number of battles and its all smooth. ANY ideas????? PLEASE!!!! i love Dark Avatar but i may have to scrap it if this continues. I know it cannot be the speeed of my computer or my ram or vid card... hell its all new stuff...

Please go to C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2 (or wherever you installed the game at), open the debug.err file you find there in notepad, and copy/paste the contents into a post here. If this is a DA report, you'll find the debug in C:\Program Files\Stardock\Totalgaming\GalCiv2\DarkAvatar instead. This will give us some technical information that can help troubleshoot your problem.

Be sure to copy the debug immediately after the error occurs; if you start the game again, the debug will be erased and recreated for the new session.

Note: If running on Vista with DA 1.6b2 or later, the debug.err is now located in My Documents\My Games\GC2DarkAvatar.
