    Default Need help with strange CTD

    Hi all,

    I have added Sweden to my mod, making the final faction count (including Papal States, Aztecs, Mongols, Timurids and Rebels) 31. Sweden is (with a few unit exceptions) cloned from Denmark and everything works exactly as it should in Custom Battle and Campaign faction selection screen.

    Here's the problem:

    When I choose to play a campaign with Sweden I get a CTD at the loading screen. The campaign won't even start.

    When I play as another faction, the campaign starts without any problems. If I turn off the FOW I can even see Sweden in its correct place with all the correct characters and names standing around. The Sweden faction symbol is also working in the diplomacy screen.
    But I can't get past the first turn. After clicking End Turn, it cycles through the factions as usual and then I get a CTD before it finishes cycling.

    The log file only gives me the standard "unspecified error" message and nothing else.

    I have uploaded a zip file of the log.

    Please help me. I have added many factions before and have never experienced this problem before.

    Did you add victory conditions and an entry in descr_faction_movies?

    Win conditions, yes. Descr_faction_movies, no. But I never edited descr_faction_movies for any of the other added factions either and they work just fine.

    ok here is a possibility have any of the "hold regions" in your win conditions been deleted? any of those regions?
    if so remove their entry in your win conditions

    Nope. They all exist and are correct in win_conditions. Hmm... This is really strange. This is the 9th faction I have added and I have never experienced this kind of CTD before.

    Try start as hotseat then switch to sweden (control sweden in the console). If it CTD, then it can be something the player can see, but is useless to AI.
    No prob with custom battle ?

    multiplayer section --> Hotseat campaign --> here, you can choose all factions if you want play them, choose a working faction --> when the game start open the console --> type "control faction" where "faction" is the name of the faction you want, here sould be Sweden and give you "control sweden"

    Thanks, I'll give it a go and see what happens.

    Fixed! It turned out that I had made a typo in descr_character.txt.
