Please Help: Unkown Fatal Error Crash circa 1200s!!

[Maadi Cadet]

Best mod I have ever played, yet I have had to re-start 4 campaigns due to an unkown fatal error! It normally occurs 1200-1215 and worst yet it wont let me reload my saves or autosave.. has anyone found a solution to this problem??

[Karklos]

i think the crashes are related to scripted "events" e.g the 4th crusades siege of Constantinople. I was able to prevent the crash on my save by using cheats to destroy the problem armies.

On your most recent non-corrupted save,

hit the ~ key

type: toggle_fow and see if there are any scripted rebel armies,

if you have an army near by and dont think you will be able to defeat the rebels type:

auto_win attacker

and then auto-calc the battle to remove the armies.

I believe that there are additional cheat codes that will enable you to move units around the map, this would help if you dont have any armies near - I dont know what they are try googling!

I guess it's linked to the scripted event of Fifth Crusade. All you can do is to wait until the crusader army will be destroyed, or it will take Jerusalem, so the event will be 'completed' and its script entry terminated (I hope I'm not wrong) - don't save until then.

Thanks Wudang and if I delete this event ?

Thanks Wudang and if I delete this event ?

It could help, but I'm not sure about this. And you will have to start a new campaign.

[Maadi Cadet]

I hope they can patch this problem it seems most players are experiencing it.. horrible considering how much work was put into the creation of this wonderful mod...

[dmesa]

i don't have experienced it yet, does it ocurrs with any faction?

[wudang_clown]

i don't have experienced it yet, does it ocurrs with any faction?

I don't think so, it's often but random. Devs said it will be fixed by the next patch.

[VINC.XXIII]

Oman ,1213

[wudang_clown]

Well, once I have been experiencing corrupted saves between 1204 and 1211.

[dmesa]

i'll be careful then. Thanks for the info
