CTD - Please help

**Hope|AbZ** · June 20, 2009, 08:48 AM

Hi I'm playing Romans and its currently 252BC. I keep getting a CTD whenever it goes to the Greeks during the next turn. How can I identify the exact issue and is it possible to fix something like this? If not, would reinstalling the whole game and copying the saved game file into the new directory do anything?

Before re-installing, you could try loading a differant save and see if there is still a crash. Maybe something that happened in your game in 252BC caused problems.

I know exactly what the cause is now - it's a specific move by the Greek Cities and I'm trying to fix this via the DIY CTD thread in the RTR support forum.

There is no problem with any other saved game or new campaign. The problem is specific to my campaign.

I'm using the tool to control the AI and I found the CTD occurs at the end of the Greek's turn no matter what actions I do during their turn.. This particular campaign is really really good and I really want to fix this. Can any modders help out somehow? Perhaps if I send you my save file you could see first hand with the AI control tool in the DIY CTD thread. Not sure what's the best course of action to take otherwise, and I have no intention on starting another campaign..

The problem is defintely occuring due to a specific Greek cities move but I just can't pin point it. They are the top faction and have spread quite far out in my campaign. I was searching around and found another person who had issues with a Carthaginian move causing a CTD at the end of their turn. (In the RTR Platinum version only) It was fixed through changing some coding in the descr files after it was found the CTD was caused by building a certain unit or building. I'm sure my problem is similar and can be fixed but I have no knowledge of modding.

Awesome I fixed it with the latest fix in the Extended Realism Downloads. That particular file doesn't with Bladerunner's no nonsense installer you should add it asap
