CTD After End Turn! Happens after reinstall as well! PLEASE READ!

**ruthless** · April 06, 2010, 02:32 AM

Dont where to post this so Ill do it here. I have a big problem. I installed Third Age with all the patches a while ago. Then I moved to Australia then I started playing like I did before but I had never got arounf to the campaign. I just tried some battles. Well I sat down and started a campaign as Mordor. Everything goes fine up until turn5's end turn and then it closed down and says "Medievel 2 Total War had to close due to an unspecified error"

so I did it again to see what would happen and it still crashed on same end turn. I figured it might be my personal modifications to teh files. Just small tweaks like unit turn creations all to 0, starting action points to 300 (Im a cheeter LOL) and more money for each faction. I dont understand why tweaks that work on RTW wouldnt work on edievel or TATW. So I then uninstalled all the patches and then the mod and then all the Kingdoms and then Medievel 2 Total War itself using Revo Uninstaller which completely removes evrything so there is almost no stuff left behind. Hope your all still following me. I then reinstalled it all and all the patches up to 1.4 because I kept all the mod installer applications and then start Mordor campaign, pray that it works, and the damn thing crashes on turn 5 again when I hit end turn. Screen says same thing again WTF. Please help me solve this. I only made starting action points tweak and money tweak for Gondor and Mordor this time. WHY DOES IT DO THIS??? Please help me. I will post this in some other places to. I would prefer not to have to download all the stupid god damn files again cuz I hate doin that with a passion.

Please help me people. If someone can tell me how to read and post the correct part of my system.log file I can do that. REPLY SOON! Leave me a message if you want. HELP! Thank you!

Install the 1.4.1 bugfixer, it does not get ridd of the script related error, but it gets ridd of the turn 5 CTD.

Thanks Mate! Good to know none the less. Anyone on the script error? So it appears there is more than one error. The script one shouldnt cause a CTD right? Hopefully?

Nope, the script error has nothing to do with the 5thTurnCTD (just click the link and scroll down to the 5th turn crash section to find out about it).
But the script error can, occasionally, cause a CTD. It's the vanilla "Slave Conquerors" script, which causes this error. If you want to get ridd of it, just open your Third_age\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\campaign_script.txt with a text-editor of your choice, search for the "Slave Conqueror" section of the script (usually the lines 5212 to 6054) and erase the entire section.
