The Last Kingdom - Bug (Reports) & Technical problems & Support

[Khwarezm]

A bug occured when trying to embark a spy into a ship. A CTD immediately occurs when you try to put the spy in the boat.

During a night battle, I had this.
A problem with the sky mod ?

[Joseph the Brave]

Every time I go to open the download it says "invalid data."

Sorry. I wasn't trying to be impatient. I looked over my own post a couple of times when trying to find it, so I figured I should repost it in a way that makes it easier to see. I apologize if I came across as obnoxious.

I believe the year is 875, winter.

Sorry if this was asked before, I couldnt find any similar problem in the forum:

If im trying to play with one of the irish factions, they dont have any accent, altough they are in the descr_sounds_accents file... any one know how to fix this?

You are triggering the event 'hafrsfjord_battle' for which we have forgotten the text in the historic_event file. It takes place in round 18 playing as Horda.

For the time being copy the text below at the end of the data\historic_event.TXT file. Then delete the STRING.BIN file of the same name. Restart your game, you should be OK now.

{HAFRSFJORD_BATTLE_TITLE}The Battle of Hafrsfjord
{HAFRSFJORD_BATTLE_BODY}Placeholder Text

Edit: I have attached the new TXT file and STRING.BIN file - simply extract the files into the data\text folder.

Hey,
I tried to fix it just like you described but my game still crashes just when the new turn is about to start.
Could it be that I need to start a new campgain?

[Gigantus]

You only need to run the EXE file - the others (DO files) will be used automatically. If it happens with the EXE - then you will happen to download again.

@Cincinatus
The first log was the correct one, but you will need to change the setting in the mod's CFG file from error to trace. Open the file with Notepad and look for this lines:

#level = * trace ## detailed error log
level = * error ## regular error log

move the hash ( # ) from the trace line to the error line

@Electricity
Thanks for the logs, hopefully they will yield some useful info.

Okay I'm getting a CTD every time i try to play one battle (with an amusing little message about Odin and Thor popping up with the CTD)

The battle is myself as the Mercians with a full banner army (3 family members) against a small Norman army (5 units and one family member) reinforced by a 3/4 banner army from Rouen which includes the Norman king. The defending army is standing on the square directly south-west of Rouen. I notice this is right on the edge of the campaign map so maybe this is causing the crash.

I am using (as far as I know) the most up-to-date version of TLK.

[Gigantus]

This is a known error and has been talked about. The crash is due to the contact with the edge of the map. The game cannot generate the battle map because of that as it has only got 6 co-ordinates instead of the required 9.
This can only be corrected by changing the map (making edges of the map unusable for character movement).

[Balsiefen]

Thanks for the quick response, I'll try to draw them out to the coast.

I should probably also mention a bit of a gameplay issue with the Vikings I've found (although no doubt it's already been pointed out). I get these Viking armies attacking at intervals but since they work as their own faction and are at war with pretty much every other faction, when I offer them a ceasefire it comes up as "Very generous". This means I get massive Viking armies that show up, besiege a city for a turn, but are then willing to pay their entire treasury (and in one case, a small settlement) in exchange for a ceasefire. As they are scripted to keep attacking me it has become a regular source of income.

[Gigantus]

That will need an adjustment in attitude I guess.

Should not be too hard to change that in the faction standing part of the descr_strat file.

[Arbitrary Crusader]

On 954 winter it ctd, when I load up. What weird is that before I had saved it was fine, then one week later, I decide to load up the game and CTD on the loading scene.

Another request from aforementioned friend -

Been playing a lot of The Last Kingdom, and there's a major technical bug. When playing a battle I got this bug as seen in the image below. Through much testing in custom battles, it seems to only occur when set to "cloudy" "sunset"

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

[Celtichugs123]

As I told Xand, we already know of this bug. We have managed to reduce it's occurance.

[Ascarona]

Some more information about that bug's problem:

"It only occurs with that one weather/time set, and you cant reduce it's frequency since it's either always off or always on. You can however reduce it's frequency in campaign by disabling that weather/time set. To demonstrate what I mean, go ino custom battles select Denmark Forest as the map and set the weather to cloudy and the time to sunset. It invariably only happens with those two in combination."
