Brave New World Mid Game CTD Crash Fix
For those of you who may be getting a crash to desktop mid game about the time when the diplomacy screens load, you need to uncheck "GPU Texture Decode" in the graphics settings. This crash sometimes shows a message about GFXRenderer Error. This has eliminated 100% of those crashes for me. Hope it works for you!

This seems to work so far. I had no error message other than "CIV5 stopped working" and ctd. Using Win 8 on i7 3770, 16GB ram, AMD Radeon HD 7770 with most current driver

I've tried everything on the net (google for this particular error) and nothing seems to solve it... some say it's related with the nVidia/ATI card power management, some say it's the leader's heads, some say it's GPU texture decode, I hope the next update brings up a more detailed error log... :( :srfrag:

I don't have the option to uncheck GPU Texture Decode. It's greyed out.

Worked like a charm on the touchscreen version using Windows 8 and an Intel HD 5500 iGPU! Thanks!
