Crash when buying Hornburg as Gondor (quick reply greatly appreciated)

**Hospitallers Kane** · April 11, 2013, 01:22 PM

When i buy Helms deep as gondor and enter a new turn i immediately have a crash i cant actually think of a reason why perhaps:
1.i haven't deleted the Geography files?
2.im buying it very early on?
3.Gondor are not allowed it(?)
4. The fact im buying it and not taking it over?

I get a standard unspecified error, can anybody help me?

That's strange.. Never heard of that happening.. Are you using any submods? Does the log file say anything? M2TW/logs?

this.. not sure if it is the same error but i know frogs had problems with the Rohan rider i.e it causing crashes there was a fix i will go have a little searchie

I created a "ghost unit" by copy and pasting the (rohan rider) unit to the bottom of the (export_descr_unit.txt) and renamed the unit on the type line(Rohan rider), exactly what the script is calling for!!! This work- around resolved the problem and i've played 50+ turns since! FYI im playing as Arnor and Rohan has lost all it's "trigger settelments" with no problems. Hope this helps!

quoted from Froman71 in the Frogs thread the problem seems to be with rohan losing trigger settlements that would under certain circumstances produce rohan riders

if you mean this .. it is a problem for the mod but because it repeats so many times (for each faction actually) through the log and it doesn't appear at the end of the log we can rule it out as the cause of the crash i believe

I had a similar problem, but with the "Kingsguard BG" unit instead. The fix worked for me, so thank you a million times and +rep until the end of time! You just saved my epic Mirkwood campaign from certain death!
