game crashes during gameplay

After you click "end turn"? These are often due to rebelling cities. Have you tried the fix?

[Cameron]

i tried the "fix" but the same thing occurs when i end my turn

I have the same problem, game crashes in winter 224-223 BC, second game in a row now that the same thing happened, in the same turn. Loading the game doesn't help, it still crashes on end turn.

I think it is more likely some event causes this, seeing that it's on the same turn in two separate games (both as the Romans, admittedly) It is hugely annoying, as you might suspect.

Usually scripted events that cause CTD are universal and everyone gets them. You could try a couple things:
Try running the turn with the script off, probably still crash...
You could turn the fow off and watch to see what happens immediately before or at the time of the crash.
Or load a game several turns back and hope it doesn't happen when you get there again.

There are some weird things that cause crashes in RTW. I have heard of two armies merging causing a crash, or a diplomat entering a city causing a crash, and then their one I keep getting that happens for no reason and doesn't repeat itself.

The fix seems to have worked. I also like the ability to build markets above lvl 3 as the Romans

Hi, Having the same problem. However I note that you mentioned Roman Lvl 3 markets. When I look at the Romans building Browser they only have level 2 markets/traders? Does this mean the 'fix' that I downloaded did not go to the right place? I downloaded the file (9.08MB) and placed ti into Eb/data folder where it replaced a very small file that was only 133KB. Did I do something wrong? I look forward to your response.

Cheers,

Tony

It goes in the "EB\Data" folder, not the "data" folder.

I seem to have a similar problem, playing as Rome when i click end turn the game keeps crashing. This has happened in two different games. The only thing which seems to be common is that i was fighting in Spain when the problems began. Its a fantastic mod btw, and it sucks cause i was getting enthralled by it. I have installed the patch for Roman markets and tried running it without the script,but to no avail

We do hope 0.81 will leave us with no ai-turn crashes. I just went through 20 years of an 0.81 campaign with no ai-turn crashes. It only crashed once, and I think that was because my whole system was taxed too much (virus check program had just started too now I realized).

I play Epirus and i only have 5 regions to conquer and when it gets to winter of year 179 it drops me to desktop. Plz tell me what i have to do because i played since Christmas and i don't want my effort to be wasted.plz tell me what i have to do.

Me and my girlfriend's baktrian campaign is also experiencing this. Fix has been tried, but it CTDed during an AI turn. Now she cannot load any of her save files, because it CTDs on the loading screen. Even starting a new campaign can't work, because EB totally crashes in the loading screen. Thus we can't even play at all now. Is this the same bug? It seems to affect -all- savegame files.

[d'Arthez]

I doubt that is the same bug, pezhetaroi. More likely one of the essential EB-files has become corrupt - one of those files which has to be loaded when starting (or continuing) a campaign.

It is possible that the save-games are still working, but your EB files are a bit messed up.

I concur. I would suggest reinstalling EB0.80. Then load your save games and see if the problem persists.

I am having the crash issue, as the romans I end my turn in 219 BC and the game shuts down part of the way through the computer nations turns. I don't have any cities rebelling and I am running version 8.1.
