"RTW isn't working anymore"

[Splatterfox]

Hey guys,

today I wanted to continue my RTR VII campaign with Sparta. So I loaded it but after one round, the game crashed with the above error. I restarted and twice more this error occured.
When I tried running as admin, the field "Load campaign" wasn't clickable, so I can only play my old game as non-admin.
After that I changed strategy and map-resolution of the game in the preferences, but now the loading doesn't even complete (I load my campaign and the bar comes to the end, then the game crashes (instead of letting me play one round and THEN crash)).

Does anyone know what this is? And can someone maybe send me a vanilla preferences file? Maybe I messed up anything without knowing (unfortunately I didn't make a copy :/)

Do you know what happens before you push the end-turn button? Is a settlement going to revolt, or will a siege end?

[Splatterfox]

One settlement is under siege, but there are 2 or 3 more rounds. Another one gets sieged by another nation at the next computerturn, so right before the game crashes.

Which version of RTR VII are you using? There may be a rare CTD in the 1.2.x version, but I'm quite sure that using that latest patch will prove to be much more stable than an earlier version. So when you haven't patched your copy of VII, that's most likely the cause of the crash.

I use version 1.2a which seems to be the newest version I think ^^

Nope, this hotfix has been released, I'd advice you to install it. I really hope that this'll solve the issue. If not, I'm afraid there's not much we can do about it

[Splatterfox]

Ok I already downloaded the hotfix before but after reinstalling the game and the mod I think I forgot it. However, I replaced the "world" folder and the two other files from the archive with the existing ones and theres still the problem. It loads until the end, I already hear the "map music" but then after loading ~3-4 seconds nothing happens, before the game crashes :/

Are there any possibilities except for starting a new campaign? Even though I don't have many territories I played very long on this Spartian game, have A LOT of money and finally am able to begin my crusader through Greece. Hopefully I don't have to quit the second time now (after I had to reinstall )

However, thanks for the support so far

I'm sorry mate, but I'm afraid that there's not much we can do about this campaign
