My game keeps crashing on the building browser screen

**sour_orchids** · July 30, 2008, 03:28 PM

Hey people, I'm a noob so sorry if Im asking a stupid question, but I cant seem to fix the problem.

Was playing as the macedonians, I looked at the building browser, clicked on the siege engineer(or siege workshop, cant remember which) and all the names of the units that could be produced had stuff like `provincial barracks` next to it.. and when I right clicked the unit to get information, the game crashes..

I installed RTR following the instructions posted by a very helpful individual on this forum, but it still seems to be going wrong for me. Is anyone able to help me? Thanks very much for your time

ps i have uploaded a link to the screenshot dunno if it works..

Unfortunately, this is a known bug with the RTW engine. It is a result of the way RTR uses multiple building requirements for unit creation. Apparently, when CA added the 'click on the unit' feature, they didn't look at how modders were actually using it to make sure that it would work for everyone. Fixing this would require completely redoing the unit recruitment system, which isn't in the works (until RTR VII releases, of course!).

Just don't click on the units in the building browser and you'll have no problems.

So does everyone have this problem then?

Ummm... I fixed it in my mod, but of course the recruitment system is no longer the same

It happened to me too.
I usually play as the Sels and if I click the siege workshop and then select the eastern archer in Antioch, my game crashed.
I can of course select the siege workshop in other cities, then select a unit, and everything is fine.

You are not alone on this!

It's a known problem in EDB modding guide. Though most of other mods avoid it by not using complex recruitment requirements (only RTR 6 does it I think..)

When RTR 6 (and I think EB 0.7 I think) which were made base on RTW 1.2, these option (to right click on unit in building panel) wasn't available yet.

The option only exist from RTW 1.5 (or maybe RTW 1.3) and since RTR PE was exactly a conversion of RTR 6 Gold we've decided not to change the recruitment system.
