21:13:16.222 [system.rpt] [error] Medieval 2: Total War encountered an unspecified error and will now exit.

The above is the error report from when I enter a battle in the campaign.
The game crashes and outputs the error message shown above.
The above files are not in my medieval 2 total war folder anywhere.
Any idea where I could get them?
Also why do I not have them?

Those files aren't the source of CTDs. I suggest you to reinstall everything (M2TW also) and install the game and the mod from the scratch.

Sorry if that's too drastic but it helped few guys who had similar problems.

I'm having battle crashes too. Every time i try to battle on the campaign map, i always crash after the load screen, after the battle starts loading i see my units for a split second and the ground has a huge strange black spot under them and then i crash i to my desktop, and get a message saying unspecified error or something like that. not sure what to do, i uninstalled m2tw like 10 times and reinstalled it with both patches(1.2 and 1.3), but i still keep getting this crash.

Heres my Log:

i hope your not patching the game from this site:
http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/p...war/patch.html

i think that site has some corrupt patches and can cause CTDs during battles, anyways try downloading the patches the from some other sites, i had the same problem and i kept on uninstalling and reinstalling my medieval 2 plus patching 1.02 and 1.03 over and over again from that site until i tied a different site and then everything worked out pretty well after that.

this this site:

hope it helps

same problem, everytime i enter the battle screen. Boom. Games crashed. Any fixes? im running windows 7 and have the retail version of the M2tw Gold edition. I followed the specific steps for gold and i also reinstalled m2tw clean to see if the problem could be fixed but nothing happened. Help would be appreciated
