hey. everytime I try to play a game, (not online) it ALWAYS crashes. it's so annoying, the only way I can play a game is online, but I want to play a scheme that I created. does anyone know why it's not working?

Can you give more details from the "crash"? Explain exactly what happens, and add whatever other information you can.

well, I guess it's really not crashing. it's just, the cake loads, then as soon as it's finished, the game gets messed up, and that little window pops up saying worms world party has to close, sorry for the inconvenience, and you have a choice of sending or not sending the error report. that's what I mean by crashing.

Is your copy of WWP patched with the patch from the proper region (European WWP -> European patch; American WWP -> American patch; etc.)?

yes I believe so.

Is WinAmp running when one of these crashes occurs? If so, try closing WinAmp to see what happens. This is a shot in the dark, but WinAmp tends to create rather strange problems for WWP, and has definitely given me a few problems with it.

If WinAmp is not running when a crash occurs, please take a screenshot of your process list just after a crash occurs. A process list is viewable with whatever program you have set to the Ctrl+Alt+Delete hotkey (Task Manager, by default). A window-only screenshot can be taken by pressing Alt+PrintScreen.

What were the differences between the time it would definitely crash and now? Did you reboot?

no, for some reason it just started working. weird

Perhaps you closed some program. Logic dictates that something must have changed for WWP to work.

Logic dictates that something must have changed
Logic isn't needed for a wonder though. :D

I guess something closed then. I don't remember doing anything myself, though.

Have you rebooted since?

Could it have been a memory problem or something similar?

no, I haven't rebooted.
