    I got that once. It was a corrupted file in the AppData folder. I don't know an easy way to fix it other than reinstalling the game . If you have the steam version you could try verifying the files through it first.


    I back then I fixed it by reinstalling the game but deleting the contents of the folder C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL 2012 befor installing the game again, since that folder doesn't get deleted when you uninstall the game.

    Make a backup of your saved cities and mod folder before uninstalling the game ;)

    Hola!! Thank you very much guys for your posts, though unfortunately I had no choice but to delete my saved cities... apparently one of them was corrupted (a Spanish city, how ironic) and had to get rid of them all...
