Helped me as well. Same issue. What is this file? Can I keep using it or should I continue with the old exe after the assault?

Glad this helped you, Api and thanks for sharing. Didn't help me though. Same issue: Crash on load whenever I assault an alien base. Latest drivers, 16gb of ram, etc... Great game, but unfortunately unplayable like that... Ah well... wanted to check out Beyond Earth anyway... Edit: Just found this link in a different thread http://www.goldhawkinteractive.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=5761&d=1413956591 Solved it for me.

Great! All I could find on this forum was that you "need" a storeroom and a living quarters on every base. So I thought someone might profit if I share my personal insight. I actually build a second base with living quarters in order to outsource my research. But a storeroom only on the main base, and the rest only hangars, radar and defense.

Couldn't find this anywhere so I tested it: Looks like you don't need storerooms on fighter-only bases. Alloys and Allenium from shot down UFOs go straight to the main base storeroom. I also see no use for living quarters on bases where I don't hire any soldiers/engineers/scientists. Setting up fighter-only bases without storerooms and living-quarters saves 100k initial construction and 25k monthly upkeep per base. So if you go for one big main base and 4 small fighter-only bases you can save 400k on initial construction and 100k on upkeep a month. That's 1.6 million saved over a one-year campaign. Any objections?
