Thread: It's an amazing game, too bad I can't continue campaign.

    Default It's an amazing game, too bad I can't continue campaign.

    This seems to happen with no matter what mod or version I have for RTW. I played for like 3 hours with the Cesse and it was a great time. Now today I can't even reload the campaign because it will crash to the desktop.

    Anyone?

    Did you install EB 0.8 over a clean install of RTW with the 1.5 patch?

    The same thing is happening to me with the Casse. I conquered all of Britain, and on the next few turns I planned on attacking Ireland, but everytime I try to take the next turn (256B.C.), it crashes on the Lusotannan's turn straight to the desktop. No error message or anything, I've tried to get through this about 5 times, but the same thing happens everytime.

    Sound like your problem, IrishGuy?

    Weird. Really weird. Most people that downloaded the mod have played for 40-50 years without a single CTD.

    It could be a city rebelling without access to any rebel units. We will work on it for our 0.82 or 0.9 (whatever we cal it) version. Those are ctd's that can occur on an AI turn.

    But if that was the case, wouldn't the game only CTD on the Rebels turn? And what about the proposed fix in the other thread? That worked for me, for a few turns, but now the game no longer CTDs on Rebels turn but on the other AI factions', and I find myself unable to even load any savegame, let alone finish a turn.

    Sorry if I sound whiny, it's not my intention. It's just a little frustrating not being able to play.

    Yea it loads the mod just peachy.
    ooOO I'm glad someone else has this too, I took all of Britian for the Cesse then called it a night. Now this next day I cant even load my game up.

    There are two cases, one where a city revolts to the rebels and one where it revolts to a faction.

    When it revolts to the rebels it draws units from any that are buildable in that city first and if there aren't any it gets them from the list of units for random spawn rebel in that province.

    When it revolts to an AI faction (or your faction) it does the same thing except if there are no units buildable in the city then the game pulls units from the local mercenary pool instead of the local rebel list.

    In the second case at least, if there are zero units available (no unit buildings and an empty merc pool), then the city revolts with no problem. The city just has no garrison after the revolt. So I think the problem is, sometimes at least, some kind of incompatibility between either a merc unit being spawned for a revolt and the faction it is being spawned for.
    It's not a map.

    Well, that is good news then nikolai. There were some of those incompaibility issues with mercs and stuff that Aymar has been getting rid of. So if that could possibly lead to problems, maybe we will have a reduction of potential CTD's that we weren't even planning on.

    It happened again and this time I used the Romans. I took all of Italy and Sicily and was planning to move out of the penisula and now I can't even reload it, why is this such a problem?

    Why aren't you able to reload the game?

    Yeah, hopefully. I've had this problem with lots of different mods and my own but it is so random and often very difficult to tell which city has revolted.

    I've been testing this a bit as it seems a problem for a lot of mods with very expanded unit lists (as more room for errors). I've been putting whatever I find out here:

    I have no idea, I click Continue Campaign or Load Game and it goes to the loading screen with the quote and interesting background and before it starts to load it immediatly then crashed to desktop. I'd like to play my save games but I can't, and I'm afraid to start anymore.
