Allocation error

Post by moneytheory »

I am getting allocation error on Auto save. I had save the game before this happen and i went back to the save game and when i got to the auto save it i didn't get the error. So it appears i will have to save the game before i get to the auto save so i don't continue to get the errors. See picture sorry about the blurriness hope fully you can read it.

The error means that the game is unable to allocate memory for its use because the game data is too large. You may try to run the game right after starting your computer and not running any other applications in parallel to reserve as much memory to the game as possible.

I would recommend that you play with fewer number of cities in your future games if you are using RealWorld MOD which has a very large number of products. The combo of RealWorld MOD and a large number of cities pushes the game to its limit and consuming a lot of memory resources.
