"Canvas does not allow drawing"

Submitted by tbgamecock on Sat, 2008-03-01 11:03. Technical Support

I keep getting this crash at random times early in the game or during game setup. Also, I get this:"Access violation at address 00473709 in module 'se5.exe'. Read of address 00000000. I googled this and found no answer. I can't be the only one. Or can I?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You're not the only one getting that error, but every thread I've found that mentioned it seems to have it coming up in a different situation. Check whether anything from these threads applies:

http://www.spaceempires5.com/en-US/node/1220
http://www.spaceempires5.com/en-US/node/851

The first thread is the only one that includes a workaround to avoid the situation that caused the error that time.

I'd be amazed if googling it worked.
