No TTDPatch did not generate a crashtxt file or anything to tell you that it has crashed bsides your eyes.
Its the TTDPatch 2.5 beta 9 (windows)

We need your ttdpatch.cfg and crashlog to have any hope of fixing this.
If the latter doesn't exist, see my signature.

I was playing around with it last night and restarted into windows xp as i was in windows 64 and it works! It must be something to do with the registry? I had aTTDPatch registry changer program that was meant to change it, mustn have worked, thx ALL

is there a way to get it to work in 64?

I have it working sort of. It hangs as the next thread down talks about, but it starts and I can start a new game. Post your ttdpatch cfg.
