    Default Re: Issue with Battles

    I recently installed TATW 3.0 and whenever I try to launch any type of battle (Campaign, Custom, Historical, Quick) my game crashes and I come across the error - "Medieval 2: Total War encountered an unspecified error and will now exit." Is anyone able to help with this?

    Here is my log -

    Could it be something to do with how I installed it? I ran the installers for both pt1 & 2 at the same time so ...

    Did you originally play a battle (custom or otherwise) with one of the custom settlements?

    There have been several similar reports but I don't know the cause of the problems, it's still early. Hopefully KK will be able to sort it out.

    Installation shouldn't be the cause of it because in such cases the game won't start at all but you definitely shouldn't have ran both installers at the same time.

    If you have the patience you might as well reinstall the mod (in proper order) because I have no other suggestions atm.

    Thanks for the reply. The first battle I had played was in the campaign, I was playing as the Silvan Elves and was sieging a town south of the northernmost province you start off with (can't remember the names of either settlements). About one or two seconds after the initial loading of the battle, the game crashed and I recieved the error.

    From there, I tested each, Quick, Historical and Custom battle options and they all gave me the same error.

    I'll go ahead and re-install it now ... In proper order

    So I re-installed and ... nothing. Getting the same issue as before in any type of battle :/

    As you see there's no time continuity between these "errors" and CTD, so they're not the cause.

    Particularly given the fact these errors don't cause any instability, they're just derivative of Gondor having access to tallest walls.

    I suggest lookiing into possible UAC issues, more info here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=360880.

    having the same bug, not using Vista or W7, so can't be UAC

    it's interesting that I see the troops deployed, briefly, but the ground has no textures, or has giant holes in them. units are floating in the air.

    quite frustrating, haven't had any bugs with TA since the first version...

    Try lowering graphics settings. I've had no graphics issues so far (apart from that axethrower CTD).

    Have you installed in the default folder?

    I imagine new terrain textures have someting to do with it.

    You can upload a savegame for me to test if you like.

    I haven't thought about lowering the graphics settings

    and I'm also almost sure that new terrain, sky, etc are responsible (if so, it's a bummer, cause I've never actually cared about battle environment much)

    The savegame won't do much imo, cause it happens in custom battles as well as in campaign...

    I will have a modern PC this weekend, will test if anything changes

    Has there been any progress on this issue as of yet?

    I'm finding that a considerable amount of players are having this problem.

    there will be no progress on this issue, since it just can't be that NO battle is playable.
    This must be a wrong installation or any other "personal" problem, like installing submods or whatever.

    My recommendation is to delete all TATW versions and folders and reinstall 3.1.

    Ahhh its good to be back... Well I just installed a fresh copy of 3.0 and then to 3.1 and I get this error too...so How can it be a personal problem? Though I am redownloading the whole mod again to see if maybe something got corrupted in the dl. So hopefully the problem will be fixed with that.

    After having early CTD issues with battles I thought I had resolved, I'm now playing a campaign as Gondor and getting a CTD about one to two minutes into a battle against Harad near Linhir at turn 45. Even if I slightly alter the battle, such as allowing it to take place one turn later, or using a different army to attack, I still get a CTD. Very frustrating as this has otherwise been an extremely enjoyable mod.

    One other thing I wanted to add- this is a vanilla install of TATW 5.1. I was getting too many crashes with Baron Samedi's submod, so I uninstalled and reinstalled everything.

    Please upload your savegame ( preferably zip it and attach it to your post).
