Unspecified Error

Ugh, I hate when this happens. This is why I stopped playing Third Age Total War. It was a great game, but I was playing Dale and finally getting the ball rolling and then kabloom.

In this mod it's happening with my Rajput game. It's 11-something and I have just destroyed the Sindhis and have control over all of India. However, when I end the turn the AE gets to the Ghorid turn and it CTD's me with the very helpful error message of Unspecified Error.

I have tried to move some troops around. remove all city build orders, and nothing seems to make a difference. The AI even does different things (my spies sometimes see the Seljuks moving on the Omani's, sometimes they don't, but each time, unspecified error.

I had just gotten to the high tier units, too, and never got to see them in action.

Has anyone ever found a solution to this? I know it's not specific to BC, but I'm sure some of you have seen it. My last alternate save game is like 4-5 hours of playtime back, so it's not even worth it. Maybe I'll try ERE now with the new AOR system, or Oman.

Problems reports should be posted in BC Tech Help thread.

Try to go back few turns and just re-play them, and don't save in the year you experience CTD. I've had similar problem, twice, on different years, reloading and replaying helped.

I apologize. Maybe I was bleary with exhaustion, but I swear I looked for a tech support sticky and didn't see one. I was actually going to comment on that.

Just to make this thread more useful, at what rate do you all usually save your game, and in how many separate files?

There's no need to apologize, especially me.

I save every single turn (in its own separate file) + qicksave whenever I want.

The same happens to me... but with Makuria.

I have had the same a few times while playing the Abbasids never once happened with previous BC versions. Like wudang says dont rely on autosave get into habit of saving often.

Here it is the link to my logs after the crash happened, if someone wants to take a look... (note that the final message of "Unespecified error" is in spanish):
