So bummed, game locks up during AI movement, wrecking my SS and BC campaigns!!!

[crystallinesheen]

So this has happened on both a Scottish campaign on Stainless Steel 6.1 and on my Makuria campaign on Broken Crescent 1.5. I've invested weeks into a campaign and during the AI's turn, at a certain point, when it moves armies on the map it hits on a certain faction and locks up EVERY TIME!!!! I feel like doing this!

There's nothing quite like investing two weeks of your time in a grand campaign, and just when things are getting interesting, BOOM!!!

I guess I could backtrack from my last save and start over, but that was at least 4 hours of gaming time, and with the possibility of the same thing happening again....ya'll know what I'm talking about.

So I looked around the forums and couldn't find advice, if anyone can help me get my campaigns back on track I'd be mighty grateful.

Hi crystallinesheen!
This problem occured also in a BC campaign of mine, but I could solve it: Propably one faction turns into a horde, and it could take perhaps 15 or 20 minutes to create the new armies and all that stuff.
Perhaps it will work!

Samething happened to me.

Try waiting atleast 10 minutes. So when it locks up, go watch TV or something and wait 10 mins.

Do you have specifics as to Faction it is locking up on, turn number, year number? Odds are it is in the mod and if you want help to maybe fix it, this kind of information to the proper mod forums would be most beneficial to all.

Ya go outside or something for a bit
DO NOT DELETE THE SAVE FILES LIKE I DID OR YOU WILL LOSE IT FOR NOTHING

Hey, thanks for the replies, ya'll. I admit, I probably didn't wait ten minutes or so when this happened, I'll try again and wait....maybe I'll get lucky and be able to proceed!

Wish me luck.....

Try turning off the fog of war so you can see the whole map, check follow ai moves so the end of turn moves show up on the map, then play a turn and see what happens.

YES!!! So I waited eighteen minutes, and what do ya know...it unlocked itself and I'm all good to go on the BC campaign. I bet it'll work on my SS campaign as well.

Thanks for the help!!!
