CTD -end turn- around fatamid

**Samsam** · October 02, 2010, 09:43 AM

SO i am playing a game that actually just became rather exciting. But to make a long story short, my game is CTDing at a fairly consistent time during the AI's faction computation. 9 times out of ten, its during the fatamid caliphates section. The game is late period and im playing the french and germans. The game is around the 58th turn.

the mods are:
graculs AI
no waiting mod
watchtower mod
fast turn times mod

I'd love to provide you with the system log but for some reason when i cut and paste the whole thing the internet window freezes...this is the third time ive had to write this message

please help

Yep, all fine. Looks like Islam captured Jerusalem... shortly before the crash.

**Samsam** · October 02, 2010, 10:24 AM

but surely that cant be it? i mean, they've captured Jerusalem before (not in this campaign) and it has waited till my turn to play the cinematic...

also another unusual thing about this game that may have some bearing: the crusade has gone for ages and ages. like 30 or more turns. its started early (within the first 20 turns)- and in the late 40s the pope said he would close the crusade in the next 5 turns. Three turns later, he said the same thing: 5 turns. its now turn 60, the turn of the crash, and the crusade has yet to end. The crusade was For Gaza. Perhaps that may have some bearing?

can you copy those two lines so we can see what they refer to please?

00:20:20.096 [system.io] [info] exists: missing mods/SS6.3/data/ui/generic/bribed_portrait.tga

bribed_portrait.tga - should be in your M2TW installation in one of the data pack files.

it's possible the game times out before it could locate it?

I dont quite understand what you want me to copy but i put the traits file in this message in case you were after that.

"bribed_portrait.tga - should be in your M2TW installation in one of the data pack files.
it's possible the game times out before it could locate it?"

What do you suggest i do about this boss? move the file to a place thats easier for the computer to spot?

Well the strange thing is that the lines Roz quoted are fixed in the current 2.5 pack put I'm uploading you a fixed version to this post. Actually I'm surprised this is version even worked that far. What submod compilation / fixpack did you last install?
edit: After checking the fixpack your issue most likely is cause by not running the ss_setup.exe again after patching to 2.5 of the fixes. The file in /data has old code but should have been replaced by the version in campaigns. Replace the file in /data with the attached file and walk us trough your current install if that doesn't help

The menith compilation fixes? ive been installing each new update for a while, overwriting files and so forth. So the last one would be the current one.

Did you run ss_setup.exe after each / your last update?
