6.4 FIX for End Turn CTD, early era turn 128-130

[HawkyTom]

This can potentially fix your saved game if your having issues when you end turn and keep CTD on the same faction's turn. Especially if your playing early era campaign and it's approximately turn 128-130 (after teutonic order emerges and are heading to attack Palanga). If you might think the crash is related to kievan rus(or lithuania if kievan rus is dead) because the game crashes when they end their turn (it is trying to switch to Teutonic Order's turn...basically whoever goes before them)
If your not in playing early era around turn 128-130ish then you can still try similar methods below to try and troubleshoot your particular game, the link below kind of shows my train of thought leading to fixing this.

I had another thread where you can see where I was struggling with this crash for a few hours and trying to fix my saved game. If your interested it's: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=565499

Turns out that the problem that would have prevented me from continuing to play my campaign was actually related to the Teutonic Order's turn! Something in the campaign script must be bugged with SS6.4 and the early era campaign, because after more thorough searching I found numerous people complaining about their campaigns coming to an end because of CTD error around turn 128-130...

I'm sure somebody can fix the campaign script or whatever files that are causing people to lose their campaigns, but I'm not one of those people unfortunately...instead here is the brute force approach to continuing your campaign if your having this error.

How to fix your campaign= Kill the 2-4 teutonic generals/armies(I had 4) who are attempting to attack near Palanga (I found 3 of the 4 armies hiding in the forest nearby, close to their visible army). You will be using the console(~) and a couple commands to kill these units. After you kill them off with your unit then disband it(don't want a free 3gold chevron unit) and turn fog of war back on and continue playing like normal.
It's not required, but I'd highly recommend after you find the teutonic order armies you move them all onto the little island (Location 70,280)in the top-right of the map above the british isles...if you don't you will be chasing them around A LOT after they lose and withdraw/retreat each time, they need to be 100% dead and off the campaign map.

Console Commands I used:

toggle_fow = turns fog of war on/off, so you can find the Teutonic Order army and kill them
show_cursorstat = gives the x,y coordinates of where your mouse pointer is for move_character command
move_character "Captain Oliver" 231,248 = example of how to move unit(Oliver) to a location (231,248)
character_reset "Captain Oliver" = this gives your unit 100% of his movement back...spam to keep moving
auto_win attacker = type this into console on the battle screen(shows the odds, etc) and do auto-resolve
auto_win defender = use same as above...except when you get ambushed while searching the forest for Teutonic Order

You can also move all 4 of their armies into your lands and kill them yourself if you want to...the Teutonic Order generals that spawn are the following....Grandmaster Herrmann, Councilor Conrad and 2 random name generals (you need to find these yourself and then you can kill them how you'd like)

move_character "Grandmaster Herrmann" 70,280 will not work...his name is "Herrmann von_Salza" and "Council Conrad" is "Conrad von_Thuringen". move_character "Herrmann von_Salza" 70,280 will work.
Location 70,280 is an island that I tried to move all 4 armies onto an isolated island above the british isles where they would be stranded(thus unable to siege Palanga), but the game would still crash...these must die to avoid the crash.

Afterwards I spam end-turned for about 35-40 turns and didn't have a crash after implementing this 'inelegant fix/workaround'. It's not the best solution, but it works and will keep you from having to quit and start over (just to encounter this error again at 128). I will continue playing my campaign normally from here out and if another error occurs then I'll be sure to update this thread, if not then it worked indefinetely!

Got me around a crash dealing with a Jihad siege on Constantinople, for now at least! Thanks! Was really upset by the idea of having to give up my campaign.

Great to hear!

[SPARTAN VI]

This should be stickied. Almost abandoned my campaign because of the Teutonic Order bug.

Is there a 'Real' Fix for this bug yet?

[Used2BRoz]

I'm working on this.
It will need a new campaign_script.txt file and a restart to the campaign.
So far I've been sorting out the spawning of priests and merchants.
I've relocated the spawn sites for the TO armies that appear, but it looks like more drastic surgery is required.
I'll probably remove all the move commands for names characters and just let the AI decide where to attack.

A shame this hasn't been sorted out after all this time.

Some code that could help to fix the issue kindly posted by MWY

@Roz: We don't have the teutonic order spawning anymore, so there's no CTD. I think It could have something to do with the siege script?

terminate_monitor
end_if

if I_TurnNumber = 1
siege_settlement Gojko Petrovic, Skadar, maintain
end_if 
end_monitor

This is a script I use which catches every possible bug. Characters who should take a settlement should spawn directly beneath it. Then you check the location and cancel it when they couldn't spawn because of an army/agents in that location. Other characters who don't need to siege are best spawned in a quiet area with much room around them. I don't know how the SS6.4 script looks so these are just my first thoughts.

And here the TO code with some tweaks i started to do but im a newbie modding M2TW so need help

So next would be to make the "Grand Master Von Salza" Spawn right next to Riga and then other Conrad Guy at Palanga or vice versa, then make them siege the settlements right away, right?

And finally add the terminate_monitor if they dont spawn in their intended location due of some obstruction?

Also i think some faction owner filter should be added for sieging those settlement, ei like only if owned by lithuania or slave faction...so the TO dont declare war to catholic factions that might have conquered those territories in the previous ~50 turns.

I got some ideas while doing the Re-Emergent Factions submod, that would make the TO spawn on these two settlements without needing the Horde ability...which could work also to make Lithuania spawn a bit before that as well...since a Lithuanian State at 1100AD is not historically acurate...but well these are just ideas for my little submod xD.

Sadly I have lost use of my PC with all the files on it for a short while due to the power supply unit blowing up.
(I'm hoping it didn't damage anything else.)

In some ways it might just be simpler to spawn the TO armies near Riga and Palanga and then remove all the siege commands. That will let the AI decide where they go after that.
No need to check who owns settlements or where anybody is or who is alive. Just spawn armies and forget.
If they just stand around being useless that's better than risking a CTD.

[Melooo182]

Ok i think i got it, No CTDs after testing 5 times xD, yeah i know it needs to be tested more, any volunteers?.

It makes use of the SMM so can be applied or removed any time using SS_setup.exe

NOT savegame compatible, i'm sorry this is just how changes on campaign_script.txt works, you'll need to start a new campaign.

[NerdLord]

The fix didn't work for me. It's still crashing right after Kiev tries to pass its turn to the Teutons. This is very frustrating, I don't really want to kill off the Teutonic Order because their presence was something i was looking forward to.

[Melooo182]

Dang, just to be sure, did you start a new campaign after applying the fix?
Forgot to say the fix is not savegame compatible :/

[Melooo182]

Corrected a small mistake on the script that could create problems

removed the check for non catholic faction before sieging Palanga or Riga

[Reed019]

So is this something I should be using? My situation is that I'm on turn 130 and the Teutonic Order is sieging Riga. Every time they attack the game either crashes while loading the battle or about a minute into the battle (I can't autoresolve because I would lose big time). Before this constant CTD I only had 1 CTD which was due to needing the knights hospitaller fix. I have been looking at and trying every CTD fix I can find, but I'm wondering if it's the TO that's the problem. Also, I'm playing as Venice and my log is here if it helps.

To fix your current campaign follow what is on the OP, for future campaigns you should rather get the bugfix compilation which already contains the script in post 9.

[Reed019]

Thanks! Will do that.

... there are three quoted text passages. Into which file (and in which folder the file) do I put these these 3 texts? And is it adding or replacing?
