    Ever since I updated to Revision 503 (the latest one as of now) Empires crashes during game start, before I get to the main menu. THe problem persists after I reboot the computer. Is anyone else having problems?

    I'm getting the same thing.
    Something changed in teh scripts between revision 499 and revision 500, that causes a crash.
    As a temporary workaround, you can update svn using "HEAD revision 499" instead of latest

    Have commented out the piece of script that was causing the crash
    Update to head revision(506), should work fine now

    why didn't revision 500 work? That one should work.

    Revision 500 Would crash everytime for me also - were you able to run it?
    Problem seemed to be that the comm armor was pointing to a
    non-existant research item, and the parsing code wasn't handling that well.

    Ok that was my fault, I figured if I didn't mess with the code, I wouldn't cause anything fatal, seems my logic failed me there.

    Confirmed and trying to fix now.

    Latest Revision should fix it, feel free to test it out.

    And thank you. Predator.
