The title speakes for itself. I tried to find a solution for this with the search function but couldn't come up with anything. If I'm wrong then sorry if I missed it.

My errorlog is attached to this post.

The crash occurs when I try to create a team or edit one but not when I view statistics.

I have the latest beta patch. (29)

PC specs are as follows:

Q6600
Asus P5B-VM SE
2GB Crucial RAM
8800 GTX

Thanks,

Try moving all the flags and graves [found in your \Worms Armageddon\User\ folder] elsewhere and see if it still happens.

If it doesn't, one or more of them are crashing the game because they don't conform to the requirements listed here:

Delete them, move the working ones back and you should be good to go. If that isn't it, you should just wait for someone to have a look at that log.

I only have the standard flags and gravestones that come with the game. I've done no modding at all.

Please compress and post the file CRASH.DMP from your W:A folder.

Are you running W:A with any compatibility options enabled?

I had compatibility mode on and set to 98/ME. I turned it off and now it works.

Thanks very much.
