0.81a CTD fixes you should try out before posting

[artavazd]

when i try to run the game,it gives an error talks about the "germanic infantry hundaskapiz" line 16088 column 57.

What can i change in export descr files to get the game going?

Sounds like a bad install, you should try to install again in a clean 1.5 RTW directory.

Hello, guys!
I've just downloaded the v2 patch from EB site and after unzipping it I found 2 subfolders inside: the "Eb\Data" wchich of course should be copied into the directory I have EB installed , to overwrite existing files, and the "TempFixes" which includes the following zips:
- CTD Fix for EB vo[1].81
- descr_settlement_plan
- edct
and something called "ModestyPatch.exe".

My questions are:
1. what are these TempFixes and how should they be used? Are these the fixes that previously were to be downloaded independently? (Oasis fix etc.) and they should be used on;ly as a temporary solution to get over some CTD that occur in the game?
2. What is that "Modesty patch" and when and how should it be used, as when I started its installation a warning appeared saying that this will modify my EV to a degree that in order to get back I'll have to reinstall my EB again...?

Ouch... I realised that this patch is probably incompatible with both First Cohort and Watchman's mods... which I have installed in my EB... :(
Do you know if there's available First Cohort and Watchman's mods that include the changes introducted by the v2 Patch?

I've yet to even download the v2 patch, so three guesses if I've gotten the minmod reworked...

But you should really be asking about that in the mods' own threads, no ?

[bovi]

The temp fixes are the same as provided here, yes, and the use instructions should be the same. I haven't checked them myself though.

The modesty patch is a change to the Gaesatae and other naked units, giving them a loincloth. It is purely optional.

I have no idea about compatibility with unofficial mods.

Updated two weeks ago with a permanent fix for 0.81a V2. Could a mod please change the thread header to the title of my first post, so people see it's for V2 too?

Had a persistent CTD in the AI turn in my Karthadast campaign after I captured Rhegion using BI.exe and 0.81a with the Redmeth money script. Installed v2 (had forgot to do that... ) and the traits typo fix, and now everything works great!

I don´t know if this is the place to write this kind of thing, but this is my first post and I just wanted to thank everyone on the team for a truly great game! (Especially now that I got to continue my campaign! )

Hey, bovi, I need your help.

I downloaded the traits fix, because of a Carthaginian campiagn which I had a CTD with. Unfortunately my computer does not have any software which allows it to recognize the file. Could you provide me with the name of a software that would work so I can google it?

btw, the CTD has happened every time I get to good in a campiagn, and the only similarity is that it only happens when I hit the end turn button.
Has anyone reported this type of bug? If they have I'll look for the thread and try what they did.

Thanks in advance,
gran_guitarra

Updated with a new permanent fix.
