Nice fight :)
I have loaded the save game and nothing moved for a warmup time of like 20 seconds.
But then suddenly when the minimap was rendered (was black before) suddenly everyone was moving again the behaviour seemed correct.
Though I found a few workers which argued about who should drag a corpse so that multiple workers tried but no one succeed to drag it away.
This seems a bug indeed but I did not encounter that other units or workers get stuck after the ~20 sec warmup.
So I wonder if this is depending on different CPUs or something similar.
So for you every unit remains stuck after loading the save game and it doesn't "wake up" after a short time?

Thank you for the upload Wuschelteddy,
for some reason i can only download the meta file and not the save file above.
I am not sure if this is an issue with UserEcho or if something went wrong on uploading.
In case it is because the file has no ending, maybe put both in a zip.
We will try to figure out why the download link to the save file is broken.

Thanks for you help

I guessed you might have already tried that however I just wanted to make sure you did.
In case you didn't try to completely unplug it, it would be worth to check.
However I think we are through all known crash issues and you suffer likely something we didn't encountered so far.

I applied a quickfix which will allow to view importable maps again.
However this is just fixing the symptoms and not the root cause.
I am waiting for a mate who is away between the years to figure how this case can even happen as it shouldn't.

Not matter what the issue will be resolved for you with next update.

There was indeed an issue with serialization of the spit roasts filling level.
The value was cached in a separate variable which was not saved.
While the real value was correctly stored after a reload it was using the then invalid cached value.

We have fixed this problem now internally and it will be patched with next update.

Thanks again for reporting the issue and the useful hints to narrow the problem down!

You sound comes not from any USB device or does it?
You already confirmed you have no wireless USB headset but we just had a case where it was normal USB speakers.
(https://forum.subterraneangames.com/threads/the-crash-at-launch-games-no-solution-works.9772/#post-94601)
What you can try is unplugging any USB audio device and start the game.

But I guess you have no USB audio device at all and your issue is different.
Just wanted to make sure it is not this issue for you.

I fear we do not know how to fix your very specific issue unfortunately.
If this is the only rig, you can use for playing the game, you might want to get a refund from Steam?
This should be possible as you didn't played the game yet (more than 2 hours).

Again sorry for all the troubles you got with this.

Thanks a lot for those hints! :)
Will reinvestigate tomorrow

It is an access violation in kernelbase.dll, so there is something going wrong deep in the operating system.
Thus the log does not tell us much for what we are looking and I am running out of ideas.
@Scott
Do you have any other idea?

I would really like to get a gist why it does not even manage to load any basics before it crashes for you.
Seems it's really an hard to resolve problem which I do not understand yet.
