Error Reporting ReadMe

[Gigantus]

General = Due to a drain on resources the log has been set to 'error' - the lowest setting. To find errors that do not leave a comprehensive message, kindly set your log to 'trace' and then compress and attach the error log after a crash. Proceed as follows:

1. Set the log to trace = open Configuration.cfg (in the rotk main folder) with Notepad. In the [log] section, remove the hash ( # ) in front of the trace line and add a hash in front of the error line, save. The log will become rather big, but compressing will reduce it to approximately 5-10% of it's original size
2. Run the mod again until it crashes
3. Find the log = it will be either in the main Medieval II Total War folder as system.log.txt or in the ...\Medieval II Total War\logs folder
4. Submit the log = compress the log with a utility like 7Zip and then attach it or upload to a service provider and copy the link in your post
5. Add a description to your post about what happened (crash to menu, crash to desktop, freeze etc) and when it happened (game start, clicking on an object, when saving etc)

Note: Sometimes the log does not get written in which case even the log folder will not exist. Repeat the crash and check again.
