Ctd after heroic victory

[BigChef]

Hi over there, first of all i want to say you did a superb work on your mod, wonderful i love it and hope you will still work on it in the future

But i have to ask you something, i first started the 365 campain and battled the Alemanni with the emperor Flavius Valentinianus of the West empire. I attacked their king straight ahead and was able to crust two full stacks in one battle. I got a heroic victory with over 5000 dead enemys, but the game crashed in loading screen after that

I already turned of the autosave and have a very good pc with 4 gb ram etc.

I am afraid when i play the battle it will happen again, is there a solution for this? Perhaps the unlimited men on the battlefield caused an error or something else?

Hope you can help me, want to play your great mod.



EDIT: Tried it again, i left the battle and lost, game loaded without ctd. Then i reloaded and tried again, won a heroic victory and guess what? Another ctd. Looks like there is some problem with my heroic victory?

EDIT 2: Tried again without unlimited men on field heroic victory again, and ctd again too. Ctd happens always at the last second of the loading screen. Ulimited men and my computer specs have nothing to do with that.

EDIT 3: Tried the eastern Roman Empire got an Heroic Victory and no ctd. The ctd only happens when i play the west and attack with my faction leader starting army in gaul the faction leader of the alemanni. Can someone else perhaps start a campaign and attack like i did, would be interesting if it happens too.

I've always thought that this problem is related to very large battles which upon existing will cause a CTD. Have you tried waiting 30 seconds before returning to the campaign map and see if that helps.

Yeah i tried, i always wait 30 seconds and turn off the autosave function. In EB and RS 2 i get ctd from time to time too, but thats normal around 1 out of 10 and in the beginning of the loading screen. I your mod it crashed in the very last second of the loading time, it must be something different i know my computer. But this battle crashes everytime but only when i gain an heroic victory, when i lose for example it loads perfectly.

The problem must be something because of the heroic victory, thats the key, everything what has to do with it traits, special scripts etc. something there causes the problem. Did you add or deleted something there, which is different of other mods?


EDIT: Started new and attacked the other Alemanni army without their king, got an heroic victory and it worked now. Will try later again in the second round to attack their king.

I usually make it a habit of saving before any large scale battle, and try to avoid situations where the AI can engage you during their turn more than once, I usually have a guaranteed crash if I fight a second battle in their turn.

Failing that, you could always open the console (after you have reloaded the game after a Heroic Victory crash) and engage the enemy with just your general and a unit or two, and type auto_win attacker, in which case you will get another Heroic Victory, but without having to fight the battle again. Its usually what I resort to if I have already fought, and won, the battle, but it crashes. Cheating yes? But fair? Definitely.
