Help! Civ 5 crashes when loading a game

[asongfu]

Hi All,

I've exhausted my sources for help, so I hope perhaps one of you can be brilliant. I am using a 2011 2.2GHz 15' MBP with a AMD 6750M and playing the game under mac OS. Because the GPU is new and unsupported by the game, Aspyr refused to help.

The game crashes to desktop when I tried to load a game while in game. This issue has been mentioned here: http://forums.2kgames.com/showthread.php?89826-Crash-on-load-from-hdd-and-steam-cloud-while-in-game.

Apparently, it is related to the size file size and progression of the game. When you first start a game, you can load from saved games perfectly fine until approximately turn 30-40. Then the game crashes to desktop every time when I try to load from a previous game while still in game.

Any one share my problem? Any one know a fix?

Thanks.

I have a game in the 300s and its loading from inside a game fine... 17" MBP with the 6750 1gb.... have 8gb of ram though.

i have 4G of ram, but I doubt that it's the RAM that's the culprit.
