Mods and Vanilla

**Goni** · April 16, 2009, 01:24 AM

Hey guys, I finished a couple of campaigns playing vanilla version. There wasn't many crashes. So now I'm thinking of playing the mods but I read some posts that some people are having more crashes after loading the mods.

I don't think I can start a poll yet. I just want to know how many people are having CTD while playing mods or playing vanilla or no CTD with either.

Thank guys.

i got to turn 60 first time, then the save became unplayable, couldnt declare way on ANYONE without CTD, restarted, got to turn 66 and while fighting i crashed, so i reloaded, autosave became corrupt, loaded from quicksave, played, crashed, quicksave became corrupt, had to go back to turn 60, now im at around turn 68-70 and havent had another crash yet.. this is all unmodded, so yeah i dont dare touch mods when its nearly unplayable with none

Mods usually shouldn't add CTDs (except occasionally for mine when a script blows up in my face

)

All most people do is changing values in the database, nothing that should really be able to crash the game.

Didn't have any CTD's with any of the mods I use or ETW at all since I installed my new vidcard. Before I had a ctd every other turn.

I had until now 1 CTD when playing vanilla, and 1 CTD when playing with modes.
I think most of the modes are not causing more CTDs. I am using 5-6 and happned only once as I said allready.

The only mod I have is blood and smoke, but that is more graphical side of things, so no CTDS coz of that. I had darth mod installed, then removed due to not liking some features, but did not experience any specific CTDs either

I never experienced any extra CTDs when playing mods. I hear they are more common when playing as minor factions or the special protectorates (13 colonies, new spain or louisinana)

There are several excellent mods (Imperial Splendour) and whichever one you choose to play (Imperial Splendour) should work just as well as vanilla works for you...
