Bug (Reports) version 1.4.3 Main topic

[Zaratt]

I have used ALL artillery either with one kind of gun or with different batteries.
I never had a CTD without artillery.
CTD occurs sometimes and sometimes does not reoccur on reload, the same army could do a battle without CTD and crash on next, using the same guns.
CTD may happen with mortar only and next time with volley gun only and next battle with same guns goes well.
Hard to find a guilty unit in those circumstances. It cannot be ONE faulty gun.
It never occured in a city assault, no matter how many different guns are involved.
Now if there was a trigger to a trait like "artillery commander" that was faulty it might be the problem, it would fit both conditions of randomness of CTD and involvement of artillery.
I am playing Hochland and using your version.

[Gigantus]

Faulty triggers for traits or ancillaries are a possibility.

[maimrendburn]

so yeahh any chance ill get a response?????? XD
just incase no one read it ill say it again i try and start campaign and the game goes back to the main screen and when i click on somthing it crashes. is the fix to reinstall it???????????

[Gigantus]

"Back to menu" has an error message in the log most of the times.
Look for your log, compress it and attach.

Several family members, while accumulating dread traits, do not get the little skulls they should have.
For example, I start a battle with two skulls, get a "disrespects prisoners" or "mauler traits", yet no additional dread.
After a few battles the missing skulls can amount to 4 or 5.
Is there some hidden dread lock ?

[maimrendburn]

I'm an idiot when it comes to technical stuff so where exactly is the log and how do i compress it?
edit: poke poke hello?????? XD

[Gigantus]

compress: use 7Zip
log: open the mod's cfg file with Notpead and check this line:

[log]
to = logs/M2TW.system.log.txt

[Zaratt]

After many trials with different artillery units, I came to the conclusion that the siege engine data is involved because even the elfic eagle claw can cause a CTD.

[Baron von Manteuffel]

Playing as Grand Barony of Hochland I had the Alcatani merc avent and the bodyguard unit Rodrigo's Guards unit card is fine, but The Alcantari Fellowship unit card and unit info card is the peasant.

Nevermind I figuered it out. Thanks anyway.

I'm playing CoW v1.4.4 english (full Installer) on a german M2TW
In every campaign siege battle after a fully normal fight, when the game is loading the campaign map.
There's a "Fatal Graphics error" which is followed by a CTD
It happened with several Factions (Karaz Ankor, Elves, Sylvania)
There was no log file in the "/logs" directory or somewhere else
Is there a solution for this?

2 bugs I noticed for Kislev in 1.5:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Empire ambassador has messed up texture in his cape. I temporarily "solved" it by using Reikland entry for the empire_general in models file:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

82 unit_models/_Units/warhammer/empire/model/PROVINCES/textures/REIKL_capitan.texture
93 unit_models/_Units/warhammer/empire/model/PROVINCES/textures/PROVINCES_capitan_normal.texture
42 unit_sprites/hre_Empire_general_sprite.spr

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Kislev has a Jesus Christ banner. Anybody know how to fix this? I have never edited banners and have no idea if I will have to edit the dds file or if it is just a text edit.

[Gigantus]

1. Wrong attachment texture for the general
3. It's either the faction banner or a banner assigned to that unit (check EDU entry) - both will be in data\banner\textures

[Dmitar_Zvonimir]

I have some strange CTD, while loading the game (it won't start), I had installed COW several weeks ago and it worked just fine. Recently I reinstalled MTW (had some system cleaning) and now it won't start. WTF ?! Why ?!

[Gigantus]

Looks like your modeldb file for CoW is missing or corrupt, the game can't find a lot of battle models - this one is the fatal one:
18:38:14.611 [script.err] [error] Script Error in mods/Call_of_Warhammer/data/export_descr_unit.txt, at line 35, column 1
Could not find soldier battle model for unit type 'Knights_Innercircle'.

It's now already at version 1.5 - might make sense to download and install that.

why isnt there a bug reporting thread for version 1.5?

OK, thanks for fast reply!! I'll try reinstall and download the new version!!
