Has anyone else had this MTW problem which may be related to save games? I have one save game which I overwrite, thus keeping the same save game name all the time. When I resumed a campaign game recently I was being besieged and time was running out. I sent reinforcements to force a battle, but when the battle was resolved I found (victory!http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif I had a large army of my own superior troops outside my fort. It looked as though an old army from a previous game (with the same save file name used) had somehow got mixed up in my new game. The new troops had guns and more advanced troop types than I was entitled to, especially as I was still in early period (and so couldn't get guns anyway). I was using the 1.1 patch.
In addition I found an error.log file in the root directory with a lot of 'can't find file ***.map' messages which perusal of these forums suggest are quite harmless.
Before installing the MTW patch I was getting a lot of sessions where the game would hang and produce a black screen on transfer from the campaign map to the individual battle map. Were these problems solved with the 1.1 patch? Any comments or help appreciated.
