v 1.2 CTD voes...

**Slaists** · 03-24-2009, 00:45

well, now, after having played v 1.2 for more than two weeks, AFTER having applied all the available fixes here's the verdict:

1. it still results in CTD while loading battles in about 1 out of 2 battles...
2. it still results in CTD AFTER the battles in about 1 out of 2 battles (that have survived #1) {and YES, I have tried NOT saving right before the battle + waiting 25 sec or more AFTER the battle summary screen}...

grrrrr............ I think, I'm going back to stainless steel despite having enjoyed the spirit of this mod tremendously.

Are you sure you installed the fixes in the right location? Please run a validation.

About the post-battle crashes, I don't think I can help with that. It's not nearly as common for most people.

I suffered from post-battle CTDs as well, especially after large, victorious battles. Following the advice here helped tremendously. Don't bother with the second part (after he says "you should really know what you're doing here"), as I didn't try it and it still fixed the post-battle CTDs issue.

Oh, and you might want to switch your sound provider from the Miles to the Direct system. Apparently that's supposed to make a difference as well (didn't in my case, though).

I actually forllowed the advice on that link (not the part where he says "you should really know what you're doing here". Also, I do have Miles reset to the Direct system in the audio part. Still lot's of post-battle crashes.

You're right though: the crashes usually happen after big battles. Usually no crashes at all (pre-battle or after battle) when I start to play any faction. Crashes kick in once I reach the point where I am fielding almost full stacks and facing several enemy stacks.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that it didn't work. You describe the problem exactly as I experienced it. I suppose it was just luck that Theages's advice helped me out.

Perhaps you should run a validation, as bovi suggested. Maybe even upload your save game and hope that someone has the patience to play a battle and possibly diagnose the problem.

Oh, and do you have any background programs running while playing EB?
