When I load the game, it loads past the splash screen, the whole screen goes black as If it were about to go 'ea games' but it crashes. World builder says nothing. Nor does releasecrashinfo. Does anyone know what the cause of this might be?

when this happens to me (no logs about the crash) then I usually remove the files which I modified and I go over the whole code to find out my mistakes.
I suppose you can try it out.
