    Default CTD

    Hi, guys. Need your help.
    I unpacked the game and since then I get CTD in vanilla. Running also Kingdoms Grand Campaign Mod without a problem.
    Also, I was unable to add so-called "missing" units to the campaign although I successfully modded and tweaked the KGCMod. Thanks in advance.

    Log file attached.

    After you unpacked the game, did you delete the two geography files?

    If you're talking about desc_geography.db and desc_geography.txt files, then yes.

    Vista\Win7 operating system?
    If so. have a look in mycomputer/users/(your account name)/appdata/local/virtualstore/Sega The two operating systems above stores copies of the files in this location, if all you have done is unpack without modding anything it could be the problem.

    Did you install any other mods like Retrofit?

    No, the only one is the KGCM.
    I had a few way before, but not at this time. And, obviously, not after unpacking.

    Is that Med2 vanilla or the Kingdoms vanilla?. If you have unpacked Med2 and Kingdoms as well, you will have to delete there corresponding desc_geography.db and desc_geography.txt files as well. Grand total is 10.

    Well, I have the additional unpacked British Isles campaign for modding (nothing right now though). Deleted the desc_geography_new.db and desc_geography_new.txt. Still, the same CTD (on Venice turn).

    What does that mean?
    When I had ctd's while modding (big word for whatever I was doing), I was able to see the mistakes. Well, most of them the rest I had to guess).

    Venice as a faction. I tried to trace it in-game (with follow AI). There's a battle with Hungarian army after which the remains of Hungarians fall back to Zagreb and then it crashes.

    Also, what did you mean by .log is set to trace?

    In KCGM folder is a cfg file. Does the entry look lie thus?

    to = logs/M2TW.system.log.txt
    level = * trace

    If not, you need to make it so.

    KGCM works fine, flawless. It's the vanilla MIITW that crashes.

    I added those two lines at the top of the M2TW .cfg file. We'll see what happens...

    It looks like a CA crash. There is nothing in there that would hav caused the crash.

    There are some warnings about traits that you could practice on. In the Mod Workshop, Squid has a Traits and Ancillaries Validator you may want to check out for it.

    So, there's nothing I can do? btw, this is the latest crash (a bit different).

    I will check Squid's Validator. I presume, it works in a way the "name validator" does?

    Edit.
    My "text" folder missing export_vnvs.txt and export_advice.txt.

    Nothing really difintive. From the looks of the protraits, I'd almost say there is a Eastern Europen priest going heretic at the wrong time, maybe on a ship.

    I edited my previous post. Could it be that unpacking went wrong somwhere? Why would I miss those files?
