How to fix the Anno 1404 out of memory error

While playing Anno 1404 Venice multiplayer in local LAN, I had some crashes on one of the PCs.

The game suddenly shows a message saying "You no longer have enough memory" and then crashes after a while.

I found several tips on the internet on how to solve this. But for me, this is what worked:

1) Download this tool called 4GB Patch and run it on these four .exe files:

  • \Anno 1404 Gold Edition\Addon.exe
  • \Anno 1404 Gold Edition\Anno4.exe
  • \Anno 1404 Gold Edition\tools\AddonWeb.exe
  • \Anno 1404 Gold Edition\tools\Anno4Web.exe

2) Reduce graphics quality to medium or low.

This allowed us to play long sessions and I never saw the error again. I don't mind the graphics being a bit crappy if works better.
