Game crashes every time on battle map. any battle map.

[Mitsmann]

hello.

I ll describe you as many info as I can.

I have a Windows 7 desktop, 4GB Ram DDR3, 1 GB DDR3 GForce video card.

I have installed full original version of M2TW GOLD edition

I have NOT installed the 1.5 patch, because it lead to another problem of "wrong disk found. insert original kingdoms disk".
Stainless steel 6.4 plays normally without the 1.5 patch.

I have installed all 3.0 version, 3.1 and 3.2 patch of TATW

Game campaigns begin successfully, but game crashes in every battle map. Tested twice on a gondor vs mordor battle map, once on an Eriador VS rebels battle map, and a custom battle map.

Gathering some info, i think i disabled the UAC (actually it was on "never notify me" status all along), and I also made not hidden folder, the M2TW folder, and also on properties i set on users "allow" and "edit" ticks.




Problem still exists.


any further ideas?

Disable daylight saving settings, if u have Windows 7 or Vista, go to Control Panel, Clock, Date and Time, Change the time zone, Change time zone, uncheck `Automatically adjust clock for Daylight Savings time`.

I will do it shortly, but what s got to do THIS setting with the crash?!

It seems that TATW can`t handle summer\winter time, no clue why, but the fix works, no battle crashes and it does no harm to your PC\laptop. You can always set your time and date manually.
