Got myself a problem and for once me clannies can't help.

[|Sith| Max]

My RTW seems to have come down with a rather exotic error. the symptoms are as follows:

Any battle with 6 people or more crashes at the end when the results banner appears. i mean Crash To Desktop and not just GS crash.
I am greatly saddened by this since i have missed out on many good 3v3's and the ability to save replays of the ones i play is gone, and clan v clan 3v3 replays are something i truelly love to keep.
I tried asking people on RCC for help and even modders and others who know lots bout the game and the engine are baffled.

It is imperative that it is fixed without having to reinstall the game, as it may cause trouble for an ALX mod i have.
So, anyone know what the disease is and how to cure it?

Hmmm
I have been getting some problems with the RTW campaign recently (I get CTDs after some battles) I suspect it may be the age of the computer so I really should get the hoover out and clean off all the dust and generally look at the computers performance, normally I would suggest an uninstall and re-install but with RTW it seems to make things worse as RTW never fully uninstalls

Have Steam VERIFY Game Cache, and defrag it as well from the properties menu in the steam game library.

That is not really helping me and what is worse, i have to win every single 3v3 i enter or people gonna say i ALT+F4. Can't relax that way. Also its not the age of the computer as it's not that old. It can run an 8v8 on the highest settings fine.. well before it started to CTD recently... Well i can only hope a technical genius comes along that knows what to do. In the mean time no more 3v3's for me

When i got this game in 2004 there was no steam, lad. i doubt that is going to help...

I have re-installed my RTW several times in the last few months (mod problems mostly ) but it has not affected the ALX mod, and i also have the retail version. So if it comes to that, you shouldn't have a problem.

really... well also last time i reinstalled it had declared my cdkey invalid so i am not gonna do that again. no, somewhere in those gamefiles is a fixable error and hopefully someone can point it out to me.

I take it from the lack of responses no one knows what is causing the problem?

---Snide remark added (Max) - I highly doubt that many people will even read the thing if it drops to page two and you know that too. gotta look out for yourself in the competitive world of men who require tech support...

Well that is just great, isn't it...
