CTD & Bug Thread

[julianus heraclius]

This thread is for all CTD, bug and any other error reports.

[Antiochos VII Sidetes]

Alright, just started off a campaign as Procopius and am doing battle with one of Valens's stacks.

I load up the battle and, lo and behold...

"script error at line 4825, column 28"

"Cannot load IJ/data/models_unit/AR_BI_Officer Centarii_east_empire_cod1.cas"

Please help! I cannot play the battles.

(I also uninstalled and reinstalled when I got this error - to no avail)

EDIT: Whoops, guess this should go into CTD thread.

Oh !!I tidied up the files and deleted all the old AR_BI files. Loks like I deleted one too many. This is why I released this as a BETA so people could find errors that I may have missed or made inadvertently.

In the meantime, go into your export_descr_unit.txt file, find "roman_tribuni1" and delete the line: officer roman_tribuni1.

Kep doing this until you found them all and deleted them. Then the battles will load. Please report any missing CAS, texture and sprites files that you may find.

I will repackage the mod and include the missing CAS file. Thanks for that.

I got a cataphract CAS missing as well; ill try and recreate it (its when going into battle first turn with Lazyges stacks.

[julianus heraclius]

Yes, I found that one too, which I am also fixing for the re upload. In the meantime, go into your descr_model_battle.txt file, go to horse_cataphract_one, and horse_cataphract_two, and replace
:model_flexi_m IJ/data/models_unit/AR_BI_MOUNT_horse_light_cataphract_lod1.CAS, 25
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/AR_BI_MOUNT_horse_light_cataphract_lod1.CAS, 55
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/AR_BI_MOUNT_horse_light_cataphract_lod1.CAS, 80
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/AR_BI_MOUNT_horse_light_cataphract_lod1.CAS, max

with:

model_flexi_m IJ/data/models_unit/IJ_mount_horse_light_cataphract.cas, 25
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/IJ_mount_horse_light_cataphract.cas, 55
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/IJ_mount_horse_light_cataphract.cas, 80
model_flexi IJ/data/models_unit/IJ_mount_horse_light_cataphract.cas, max

And that should fix it.

I cannot get the 355 campaign to run. I'm sure I've installed it correctly, but I get a CTD once I've chosen a faction. The other two campaigns work fine so far.

Are you getting this title in your main menu:"INVASIO BARBARORVM: SOMNIUM APOSTATAE IULIANI BETA V3.0 - 355AD Campaign", and are you seeing a campaign readme.txt file in your IJ folder?

[Visitor13]

Yes to both.

[julianus heraclius]

Yes to both.

Yes, I'm getting it here to, though my developmental version is fine, evne when i load the 355AD campaign, but when I load it into my BETA version, yes it crashes, but not with the other two campaigns,, very strange.

But thanks, Ill check it out.

Can you get me a picture of the units involved so I can check it out.

[Jvlivs]

it was in the AI turn; when i reloaded the save it didnt happen.

EDIT: Managed to find which stack it is; ill post it.

So, you are saying that when you reloaded the game it didn't crash, but when it happened the first time it was with the AI' turn.

So, do you mean it CTD'ed when you loaded a battle to play or when you had finished the battle or when you played another turn.

I'm not sure what you mean here. I do know that random CTD's can stll occur and I'm pretty sure that there are no longer any fatal CTD's.

Everytime I have tried to attack with that army it seems to CTD; at first it was when the AI attacked me during my turn but I was now able to recreate it 3 times using the save and attacking with it.

Also got a CTD on hun turn.

I played the Iazyges and had no CTD's while loading a battle, so can only put it down to a randon CTD at this point in time.

I have also noticed a CTD during the Huns turn, but then after that the game runs without incidence.

As I said earlier, I'm very confident now that the game has no Fatal CTD's. Of course there will always be random CTD's which is why you should always save games. I'd be interested to see what other CTD experiences people have.

Please, all of you keep me posted.

Cheers

Hello Julianus_Heraclius,

Okay I have three bug reports to make on 3.0

On the 361 campaign the game will launch, however when I go to select a faction and play it returns to the Single Player menu. I have to click back to the main menu before I can click on one of the options under the Single Player menu. Upon exiting the game it gives me this error:

script error IJ/data/descr_rebel_factions.txt line 354 column 21
rebel_unit_type 'gothic warlords' not found in unit_db

On the 355 campaign the error is unidentified. I can launch the game, but when I go to play the main campaign after selecting a faction it CTDs. No error message whatsoever.

One the 365 campaign it plays as normal. However on my first game as the Goths it CTD'd with no error message on the fall turn of the first year. When I played again from that game it went through just fine. Everything else checks out. Feel free to ignore to this error report.

I hope this helps you Julianus

EDIT: I forgot to say that I am running the mod with both of the suggested edits to the files made in this topic.

pm sent as it wont let me upload it here.

My problem is fixed to perfection. Thanks for the help, Julianus.

my problem is similar to Shogun114's one, when i installed the mod i entered immediately in 361AD default campaign and it worked fine, then i went in the options and loaded 365AD script to do the campaign: again i entered the 365AD campaign and all worked fine, i also saved a game.
From this point all started to degenerate, i can't run 361AD campaign more, when i choose the faction it goes back to main menu...i have removed and reloaded the script several times but no way, the 361 doesn't want to work, it is strange cause first time, before i loaded 365 script, it worked well.
Then i tried to load 355 script and do the campaign but it crashes after that you launch the campaign without messages. The onli campaign that is still going well is 365 one, for that i can either load the script 365 or using 361 script and load the save in the main menu and the campaign works fine...
The message that 361 campaign's crash shows is this:
"Script error in IJ/Data/Descr_rebel_factions.txt,at line 354, column 21.
Rebel unit Type 'goth warlords' not found in unit_db"
