Not a huge deal, but if I ever use the Quick Start option I get an immediate crash - Distant Worlds has stopped working.

It seems to work fine if I go through the main menu thing.

Running Win 7 64bit with 16GB RAM and a Nvidia 560 Ti

Thanks for the report.

If a crash dump file exists at the following location, could you please upload the contents here?

C:\Users\[YOURUSERNAME]\AppData\Roaming\Code Force Limited\Distant Worlds\1.7.0.4\DW_CrashDump.txt

Thanks
Elliot

Though I think this has happened to me since before Legends.

Hmmm, decided to try running it as an 'administrator' and that did the trick...

Yeah, the game runs as administrator from quickstart, but crashes quite rudely without.
