--- Comment #6 from Dabb dabbleri@hotmail.com 2009-05-08 09:18:24 --- For me, crash seems to happen when Tropico uses software renderer, when its set to 16bit color depth.
If I select (3D mode) as Hardware, crash doesn't happen (though its bit too slowish to be actually usable). Also, crash doesn't happen, if Software mode is set for 8bit Color Depth. (from Tropico Settings page).
Haven't had time to really dig into this yet.
If you get crashes, try setting 8 bit color in tropico settings to see if it helps.
