    I have the Steam version of CXL Platinum, and it crashes on start with "Cities XL Platinum has stopped working."

    Here is the bug log:
    [22:11:03] CORE mcMem.cpp ( 827) Error Available physical memory = 3.035Gb
    [22:11:03] CORE mcMem.cpp ( 828) Error Available addressable virtual memory = 3.800Gb
    [22:11:03] CORE mcMem.cpp ( 829) Error Total physical memory = 5.465Gb
    [22:11:03] CORE mcMem.cpp ( 830) Error Total addressable virtual memory = 3.999Gb
    [22:11:03] MEMORY mcMemAllocator.cpp ( 107) ErrorBuild .\Core\mcStringBasic.cpp(124) : Request for allocation failed. Out of memory (need -1629982448)

    Could it be corrupt mods or conflicts? I installed all my mods today, so I have all the latest versions, and I have many.

    It seems from my experience that those memory errors usually indicate a corrupt mod.

    How many mods do you have exactly? If you install dozens of them at once, then it can be difficult to find the problem (if it is indeed a corrupt mod to begin with).

    Im also had this problem, so:
    1- I reinstalled the Cities XL Platinum
    2- Then I installed the UIM 1.79.9, custom instal, full installation of all resources: HEM ; CLM; RHM; Highway Interexchange, etc.
    3- Then installed the RHM 2.0
    4- Then I pasted on the paks folder all the dependencies (Check the pdf below to see the list of dependecies and modifications patchs, they are all available on this website)
    5- Then pasted most of the resources of this website one by one, testing everytime by opening the game and waiting for problems, i had several problems and picked up the patches that were making the game crashes: XL_Nation_Karaaib_Ent_MSG_UIM_V1.0;
    KH_CityLife2008Plaza ; XLN_edesa_KTMv1.0 ; XLN_Preyfr60_AltirisInc; XLnation_diScOpOlis_res_TrumpWorldTower-UIM_v1.0 ;

    Note: I downloaded most of the resources of the website, its only missing a few Office buildings, that I will download this week and start testing again.

    Dont know why they are not working yet, but this is my current setup for the Cities XL Platinum - September 2014.

    I don't have some of the ones you have.

    This one could be a problem depending what it is. Looks like you should only use one and not both.

    Here's another one. You have two of the same file at different revisions

    Plus CLM can cause problems on it's own, so I don't use it.

    I assume you have UIM also?

    Getting custom maps to work and not crash can be difficult, in my experience (you might want to open a separate topic).

    Mine is working, check out my dependencies maybe you are missing something on your paks folder, im still testing all the mods from the website, but overall, 95% of the mods are working if you have all the dependencies.

    maybe you are using the more than 1 map mod for the smae map slot, some maps use existing map slots from cities xl, try taking off all the maps and placing only santos map

    I got the same error today. The game just didn't want to load anymore. After deleting the file:
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XXL\live\data\config\prototypesdb.bin and launching the game again it worked, but it took longer than usual. The log file was full of error like this:

    sczPsJobProvider::SetMaxJob : invalid maxjob : 0

    I went to planet mode, exited the game and on the next time I loaded the game it started normally without problems.

    Which sounds normal, as the game engine generates a new prototypesdb.bin file (just to clarify this; I mean, I know that you know this, Monty).

    I guess you misunderstood me: I just wanted to make clear that the fact that the game loads longer is not something to be worried about, it was not about your advice in general.
