After I get the warning about encroaching darkness (or something) from the ancients I get a crash that just says 'Distant worlds has stopped working'. the program continues to run, even with the error box in front, but once I close the box it closes the game. I started this game on the 1.7.0.6 beta, and updated to the official release. The error log reads as follows;

This seems to be a growing problem as I reported this a couple of days ago just before the official patch. Exception errors and DW has stopped working started to happen often. Erik tossed it off as being beta 1.07.06 and now more reports are flowing in after the official patch. Once it started for me it kept happening about every 2 minutes after the reload and I did send in this saved file and haven't heard a thing back.
