Unknown Error Entering Battle

[Alpedar]

Test memory (eg. GoldMemory or Memtest86). Someone I read that this game is extremely sensitive to corrupt memory (but if one stick of two is problematic, sometimes helps swaping them).

downloaded that goldmemory and ill test it after i finish downloading 1.2 just our of curiosity wot sort of memory error we talking bout? forgive my ignorace with pcs somethings i grasp somethigns go way over my head lolz.

It's something like corrupt file, but it happens on certain memory adress, not with specific file.
In some circumstances some memory cell returning something else than was stored in it (eg. if ones are around, it return one (but there are much more possible errors)).
If it happen to be part of bitmap, you have one pixel wrong and you don't notice. But if something saying what program should do is there, then it will do something different than it should (which extremely probubly will cause crash).

If you reinstall be sure you do it the right way:

1. uninstall the game.
2. remove sega folders.
3. clean your registry from any sega / M2TW key
4. defragment your hard drive
5. install 1.0
6. patch to 1.2 (don't use patch 1.1 if you want to upgrade to 1.2)

Good luck

the gold memory checker thing came back with nothing wrong, and if ur serious that i should defrag my drive that is ridiculus i mean i want my game to work again but it will take ages lawl.

Sometimes the long way is the best way.

Defragging would definatley be advisable especially after uninstalling a huge game like m2tw.

Imo defrag should not affect whether it crashes (but someone says that it helps, and experience>>theory). But it can help ovarall performance of disk operations.
