      Can you load any other saves? Can you make a new world, save it and load it?

      If you have any CC (in-game or CAW), try loading the saved world with the CC removed.

      Mine is crashing a lot now when I use terrain paints... After painting a good bit, one paint will suddenly cover my entire world and CAW will crash. But if I only paint, etc, a liiiittle bit, then save, paint a little, save, it won't (or I should say hasn't) crashed.

      Plus yo no tengo CC in-game at all so, I don't know what's up with it, but it isn't bad enough yet to have me pulling hairs, lol.

      Something is definately wrong with CAW .... to test it out a started a new world .... several times and guess what


      THEY were ALL under water ....... how weird.

      Has anyone else has this ? If so did you manage to fix it ?

      That could just be your sea level. Have you tried adjusting it?

      The land/maps are under water?

      It depends on the map levels (100/200/300 deep)and then the height levels (100/200/300 high) when you start that will give you the land height at start.

      Yes ......thanks Rflong but i think their must be a problem with CAW . I have about ten differebt saves of my world all at different stages of the build and from there some external save too but when i open ANY one of them the caw screen turns completely yellow and caw crashes.

      5 months of work wasted ..... thanks EA .....

      I'm having the same problem, except only parts of my world turn yellow. And thankfully it doesn't crash.

      Hope you find an answer! (or I hope EA finally creates one)
