IB VGR Installation, Ctd, and Bug Thread

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

Netbooks aren't designed for Gaming. They have low graphics cards and are designed for officework, facebook, Reports, etc. I would reccomend Windows 7 Pro. It has a device that allows windows XP and vista programs to run on it. If you want it primarily for gaming, it'll be about 500-600 dollars.

Yes let me know ok

im just curious if BI with this mod is that much heavier than RTW with EB.
its just so random that i could play my first campaign for 12 years without a CTD and now its getting predictable when its going to happen.
BTW, this mod is modfoldered right, no vanilla RTW and BI files are altered?

I would venter a guess and say yes.
and yes its mod folded no vanilla folders are altered

I tweaked the processes list and it has helped a lot. I suggest you give that a try mmilia. Good luck

Also let me know if you have the Assimilation Mod Patch downloaded

[cubic]

I do, or i did actually. It started crashing on me again and i have uninstalled. Too bad, cause i like the timeframe and your work.

Didn't someone fix the 2702 error by pasting the Rio descr_buildings over the BI descr_buildings???

-This is an error from files not being copied over correctly and is not always the fault of the person copying over the files
-Or it can be from previous mod that has changed an orig bi or data folder.

-For not properly downloaded files:
Sometimes if the mod is downloaded several times it seems to cure this issue

I am having the same problem as cubit - the game crashes at each second battle. I have the assimilation patch. I am playing on a notebook that has 2G of RAM and a good processor + NVIDIA graphic card. Even if I save after the first battle and go back to the main menu and load up the saved game it will then crash at the first battle. The whole game has to be shut down for it to be 'reset'.

I cannot find a solution on any previous posts on this forum - any ideas? The mod is excellent and I love playing it - I would love to be able to play it without the CTD.

thanks -

Sorry for the issue maniaces
What NVIDIA card do you have? I have the NVIDIA 9800

Can you tell what faction are you playing and is that the faction ctding?

It seems this prob runs along with notebook users for some reason. Also there seem to be certain textures that cause this issue more so for some as yourself. I tried to isolate some of the textures that are causing this for some and did correct most but not all in BRG III In BRG IV I'm hoping to have it solved. I think its some of the WRE officers and the Candidati are still causing problems in BRG III

If you want to test BRG IV I would be grateful. I need to test it for someone as yourself who is having this issue

[maniaces]

I have the 8400M GT - maybe it is too old.
The crash seems to happen with ERE - it did not seem to be an issue with other factions.

I would be glad to test IV - III is really an excellent mod and I would love to see the improvements.

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

Okay. Thanks again Rio.

[GreatOne]

I can't start up the mod.I installed this and patched it with this I also installed the sound mod.So when I start the mod i get this show error message

Help!

[Magister Militum Flavius Aetius]

If you go pack a couple pages in this thread, it says how to fix that. I learned how to fix every problem by reading this entire thread.

-Every time?
-Let me know what you got installed for the mod ok
Has it CTD before?

A ctd like this is very unusual

[Feldmarschal Rommel]

I only played it once because it is a large battle and the CTD at the end tottaly demoralized me, i only have this mod from Invasio Barbarorvm series but I have others like RTRPE, XC , ALX(Diadochi-Total War not Alexander),and many others but they are all mod-foldered and it has never before CTD

Try reinstalling the mod and see if it still happens
