Crashes on start up to battles

[Turkleton]

Hey, sorry if this has been answered previously but I'm relatively new to modding TW games.
When I load up the game, the main screen has the 'Great War' thing on it, all the campaign buttons etc
However, when I try to start a battle the game crashes.

Any advice?

Also some of the unit images were whited out, so I may have not done something to make it work yet. Any help is appreciated.


EDIT:

It may be just when I'm trying to use the Soviet Union, as I've just figured out.

It's not the maps, it only seems to crash when I use the Soviet Union.

Could you give us a complete army list over the units you're using with the Soviet Union? If you're running on settings that might be too high for your computer (especially unit sizes), the Soviet Union in particular could pose a problem. Have you recruited generals?

Cheers, and welcome to the forums.

Thank you very much for welcoming me.
After re-testing it, I reduced it down to just using a 'general's bodyguard' unit and it still crashed. So as far as I can tell that's the unit that's making it crash.

Also, the whited out units are NTW units, but it doesn't seem to have any relation to the crashes.

Play a battle without generals (make your army then erase the general at the end), see if it works.

It seems to be the general that makes it crash.
I just tried a battle without a general and it worked perfectly.

We've had this problem with the Generals for quite some time now. It's a large problem that effects alot of the mods stability, for instance most of the armies on the campaign might have a General and thus lead to a crash.

We'll be looking very closely at them to try and figure out what is wrong with them. We've had some large success lately in fixing annoying bugs, so hopefuly we can figure this one out.

I'm fairly sure I had fixed the error already

someone did, whoever made that bugfixer pack ages ago.

1) Was it included in 4.5 ?

2) Evidently if it was, it doesn't work for all factions.

For me it works perfectly with and without general, might be a random bug.

[Nyxos]

and I've never crashed using TGW, go figure

[Turkleton]

Thanks for the input, I'm sure I can avoid it anyway.

brilliant i will try without general, thought it was just soviet union at first.
