Unspecified Error

[Rothgar]

Using DLV 6.2 with the latest BB installed, I am playing as England in the year 1198. Whenever I end turn, the icons will cycle to Spain and then CTD.

I am using Vista 32 bit and this is a fresh install of the game/mod. I have reinstalled several times to no avail. Any thoughts?

Edit: Here is the log:

Alright, I found a post tell me to edit my DLV_ext.cfg file to look like this:

[log]
to = logs/system.log.txt
level = * trace
;level = * error

And now I get this error in my system.log:

It goes on but its jsut oo much to post here. Ugh.

[Shadrach]

Maybe its the year 2000 bug coming 2 years early?

Just kidding, dont know about the crash but the game.script error is not the cause - its just caused by the game not knowing the trigger "ItsSummerNow" when parsing, its actually specified

What year are you really in?

[Rothgar]

Woops! I meant 1198, my bad :-)

[Taiji]

If you upload your save maybe me or someone else can get it through to the next turn...

[Rothgar]

Here is my save by the way. Upon further inspection, it seems I am missing several UI .tga's and I have no idea why.

[Rothgar]

I just found something. The crash actually comes on Venice's turn (just after Spain). The Log file contains this error:

20:46:38.257 [system.io] [info] exists: missing mods/DLV_ext/data/ui/captain banners/dead/captain_card_venice.tga

I checked the folder and that particular file is indeed missing. How do I get it? lol

[Taiji]

I get the CTD too

I tried it with fow off and follow AI movement on and noticed it happens at the start of venice's turn, an army tries to board a ship near venice and we get this CTD.

[Shadrach]

I get CTD too... and I'm not running BB. Log says something about pausing some .bnk files before crashing?

[Rothgar]

So, is there a way for me to fix this? Could I just kill off that unit or boat using a cheat? I just don't want to start the campaign again...

[Rothgar]

Any thoughts on what is going on here? I spent hours trying to kill of units to fix this but nothing worked
