ok i believe it's a corrupted installation of med2 'cause it's really old, i will reinstall it today (reinstalling med2+kingdom is something that really take alot of time and i never wanted to do).
about the mod i've downloaded the one on the first page of this thread and then patched the mod to version 1.2, did i missed something?

[MADTAO]

Well ,check out Lithuania mod 2 Baltic Crusades instalation guide.
After instaling Kingdoms you need to Instal DLV Teutonic Knights (see links),
and only then instal Baltic Crusades (without any patches ,becose "Lithuania mod" is different than "Lithuania mod 2 Baltic Crusades" .First is for Medieval 2, second is for Kingdoms.)

[Boyar'sNephew]

What is going on with the CTD issues? Do we have an estimate for a patch or fix? Reading this board, there are numerous proposed fixes, but its unclear to me whether any of them actually work.

thanks!

[Teutonic Joe]

any updates Kyho ?
wait...that means every successful siege i tested were all conducted when it wasnt in the winter? all 5 or 6 of em :hmmm:

[MADTAO]

Argent Usher with team is helping us now.Kyho is fixsed some minor CTD and now we concentrate on just one task - SOLVE SIEGE CTD !
(Hard to believe but looks like it happens only in Winter!)

[Roboute Guilliman]

i havent had a crash in summer sieges, which is weird. and some winter sieges work, I am confused.

[MADTAO]

Then only hope is to make full error log and pray that Argent Usher with team can solve this, oterway its will be long recreating of new instal checking out every new file.

I will do so when I am at home

[Pachinko]

Good job guys!

[Takumi Fujiwara]

your units are unique

[♔Greek Strategos♔]

Your mod is one of the best guys..... Amazing work... Please fix the siege CTD bug..... It makes the mod almost unplayable.... Thanks....

[Teutonic Joe]

Well not totally unplayable. I just attack the wandering enemy stacks and prevent target cities from being relieved to siege at my leizure. it makes the game take longer since you will have to take a city one at a time instead of mass siegeing in order to prevent relief armies from attacking or being screwed over by auto....

[MADTAO]

I play similar way ,just cant live wihout those battles
Playing with Lithuanians my strategy is to catch wandering enemy armys.For sieges i try to catch enemy near settlements ,so for instance castle garnison will move out for help.
Otherway use auto battles.Some sieges randomly work ,thats why i save before every of them.Unfortunatly it is wery smal %.
Dont loose courage ,still working on that bug

And yes if you want help plz send siege CTD bug reports in Bug thread.

# What faction is creating the CTD ?
# What units have you and enemy ?
# What year and season are you in?
# What settlements cause CTD ?

Also this is realy funny but all that you can report about WORKING sieges It would help also to summarize all aspects.

If you can, plz make enchanced log file with this script in Cfg file ,it would help a lot.Then upload it (for instance in rapidshare.com) and post a link.
