Hmm ... this issue seem to be a very frequent one since the silent update by CA ...

I would advise all of you to wait for DMUC 5.3! Hip will probably release it later that day and I'm sure DMUC 5.3 will solve all issues concerning EUE and the startup crashes!

Thanks NoOdle and syntax, did everything you said, still didn't work. Reinstalled, everything works again. If I have further issues I will wait for the next release

Edit: wrong understood -to early in the morning haha...

This post is a god send. I nearly freaked out when I couldn't get Darth mod to launch after the Elite units of the east was released. Thanks so much.

Man I was ready to start trashing my computer room...I had DMUC installed on my MSI gaming laptop and a wonderful campaign going. I have been purposely not downloading any updates....I step away for an hour and I saw that one of my daughters had turned on the wireless connectivity to said laptop. Anyway as I try to load my wonderful save game I get a CTD. As I was also eating breakfast I immediately lost my appetite and was looking to open a window and scream out loud. Because I knew that Steam had uploaded some...new ....stuff onto the computer. I am downloading 5.3 now and then the hotfix. Thanks for this thread, I knew it had to be some CA/Steam related....stuff. One other question, I would like to delete some save games and I can't find the particular thread that explains the process. Sorry if this is a repetitive question. Again thanks for the great work guys. Hopefully my old save games will load. I am praying that they do.

You can delete them ingame: have a detailed look at the loading saves menu ... I bet you'll find the red cross at the top of the scroll bar on the right windows side

Just mark a savegame and click on the red cross ...

Deleting save games was a mystery for me too, i deleted them by going into game files, until today i discovered the almighty X

**Ankhenaton** · February 14, 2010, 07:17 PM

LOL!!! Thanks for the simple solution...I am back to enjoying my campaign.

**Ankhenaton** · February 14, 2010, 07:19 PM

Yes I was traumatized...lol...by the lack of simplicity found in the original game with no delete feature. The power of the "X" compels you...lol.

Which units are affected?
Do you use an alternative UPC?
Have you tried to reinstall DMUC?

I have Windows 7 and the mod doesn't work. I have downloaded DarthMod Ultimate Commander and install it, but when I launch the mod, steam starts loading ETW and then game crash into the windows. Original ETW is working.

**diadok** · February 18, 2010, 02:54 PM

i knew this, but here it is russia.
and it seems like old same problem with maratha/russia has been solved.

in late campaign, i wonder if something has been done to fix it ?
1 hour now that i wait, i must stop

EDIT: the savegame seems corrupted now, cannot reload ----> CTD

How do you launch the mod and what (campaign) are you launching?
Are you using the DMUC launcher?
Have you tried to reset your scripts?
Are you sure you indicated the proper ETW path?

@diadok: Try to reset your scripts ...
