Meneth's Stainless Steel 6.3 Compendium (MSSC) 3.2.2

Gamestart question .

When I start the new SS_setup.exe I select the early or late campaign + the wanted sub mods. After it I get a green loading bar.

Now the era selection pop up is still there but the game itself will only start when I click afterwords on SS launcher.exe as well.

Is it correct that the SS_setup.exe ist for settings only and not able to start the game ?

[Meneth]

Yes, that's normal.
The next version of SS_setup.exe will have a button or something to start the game.

OK. Thx.

I have a crash on turn 51 (as described by another player here http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=414062 ). Now, I downloaded the fixes file in the first porst, extracted it with 7zip and then copied it to the SS6.3 folder. But I still have that crash! What am I missing here?

EDIT: okay, I copied the contents instead of the entire fixes folder into the SS6.3 map. Now the SS6.3 setup doesn't work anymore, the game doesn't crash on turn 51 (yay!) but it crashed when I clicked on a construction scroll from a city. Meh.

did u run sssetup.exe?

[cisse]

Whn first I tried, I did run it but then it made no difference. Second try(as described in the edited post above), I couldn't run it because it doesn't work anymore.

quoting the faq: Q: Why do i have to use SS_setup.exe and launcher.exe?
A: Because you don't want to manually mess with SS insides.

i'd suggest reinstalling ss 6.3 and then the fixes...sounds like your crash may have been from something other than the fixes (aka a random event like a faction dying glitch) if a reload fixed it. And i put a new download like 3 posts above this in case ur got corrupted from filefront.

edit: if you don't wanna do that you can wait for one of the main guys to come on and help you they know more than me.

Yes, yes... But I don't feel like I did, it said "install into the SS6.3 folder so I had to copy it in there right?

I did just that, re-installed SS6.3. I'll see if it works now.

Thanks for the help!

EDIT: I just re-donwloaded the fixes from the new link given above, now it appears as an .exe and not as an unknown file, hope it works now. Might be handy to put this info on the first page, so people don't keep asking the same question over and over again.

Okay, the new download solved it all (although I was a little worried when the SS_setup.exe didn't start the game, but then I read the first posts on this page). Can play again without problems now, thanks a lot!

For some reasons some of tha banners in my game are messed up. Kiev has lithuania's banner, lithuania has a red cross(irony!?) etc... help please! Its only some of the factions, some others are correct banners.

[Meneth]

Download and install the Fixes. Link in my signature, and the top of the OP.

im not sure if its good topic to say about my problem but...

generaly i've instaled this mod 6.3 version and all was ok. No crush no problems no bugs till the moment when i've chenged campain. after that dosent matter what i made i had only few units for each fraciton they ware in game but not in imposibile to recrut.

For example: france had only 1 units of heavy cavalery (feudal knigts) and 0 normal infantry. Im telling about profesional armmy not militia. Coz in citis i can recrut only militia and crossbow militia.

In castle only few units like spearmens and fedual knights. Some light infantry and some archers but nothing special. Even on last lev of that buldings


Im think it is some bug whit this setup coz it changing only map and fractions.


What is funny i have a lot of units on my 2 campains what i started on begin. Now i dont know how to make it to have that setup of the game. I've reinstaled the game and mod but sytuations is not changeing. From begin i have same poor units tree.

Sorry for my bad english i hope so that u understand

I was just going through the compendium's changelog and I saw that the "disable RR" option is no longer available. Does this actually mean that you must play with RR now?

[Meneth]

Disabling RR is broken.
If you absolutely don't want to play with RR, download the NoWaiting sub-mod.

I decided to try a late campaign, but now I cant revert back to early.

"Error while trying to create a temporary file operation aborted"

is what I get when I run the setup file

make sure ur run it as an admin so it has write privileges.

[Meneth]

And make sure UAC is disabled and that SS6.3 isn't in Program Files.
