    Default CTD I know its common but is there a fix?

    Hello all, first time posting.


    I currently have a campaign going as the greek cities. Now, I got a CTD problem. When I killed the last macedondian family member, ended turn. got the faction destroyed message and the game CTDs.

    Is there a temp hotfix around or do I have to wait for 7.0? I am also worried about the patch since I dont see the greek cities as a playable faction.

    Should I just try and lead out the macedonian family member out of the last 2 remaining cities and just capture them without killing him?

    im not sure on this but i think the CTD is built into the mod. let me explain. the defeat of the macedonians is a huge event. this will cause major ripples in the game as well as spill over into your computer!!! if the macedonians fall they will try to take as many of their enemies with them including your computer!!!!

    major stroke of genius by the modder!!!! i give her many many kudos for making the game much more lifelike.

    So, Bottom line on this mod, you kill a major faction prepare to pay in a crashed hard drive!!!!!!

    there are no plans for the modder to come out with a version 7 that i know of. i'll try contacting her to find out.

    id guess RTR as thats the only one near 7 - although I havent had a CTD!

    EDIT: do you use -show_err ?

    Oh, sorry guys, I meant to post this in the RTR mod forum. So now you know its RTR 6.2 I beleive.

    I have heard of show_err but from what I've found on this particular CTD, It won't fix it. Please prove me wrong though.

    I can replicate the error easily, using show_err. Would it help at all though?

    Its always worth having -show_err on the shortcut for anything modded (it doesn't hurt at all) but unfortunately it doesn't normally give message for in game CTD's - normally you get messages for failures to load campaign and sometimes when you have loaded and exited without CTD to tell you it hasn't implemented some element of descr_strat etc because of error.

    do you get the video in the faction destroyed message - or is the flaw that it's not finding that?

    Yes I get the video, if you mean when the banner shows up of the destroyed faction..
