Crashes in Version 0.9 (Possible Fix, Please Test)

[Dresden]

Many users have been reporting crashes after updating to 0.9. This could be an issue with save game incompatibility or a fundamental problem. We need your help to track it down.

If you are getting a crash, please report it here with the following information:

1. Are you playing a save game or a new game?

2. Which version are you using? Steam or TWC?

3. Are you using any other mods?

4. When precisely did the crash occur? What turn was it? Was it during the AI turn or your turn? If during the AI, which faction? If during yours, what were the circumstances?


Thank you for your help in resolving this issue. We will continue working on a solution.


Edit: Possibly a fix for the crashes. Please test this pack (load it before DeI): http://www.mediafire.com/download/ca...crashtest.pack

Let me know if this fixes your crash.

If the fix does not help, please post with the above information and, if possible, include the save game file.

I am using the TWC version and I got two crashes:

Crash in old save game with Rome turn 133 during Athens turn.

Crash in new game with Macedon turn 17 during Arche Bosphorus turn.

Nothing really to see on screen, just running through the AI turn.

Thanks for an awesome mod.

1. New game
2. standalone + Mitch Major Empires + RTW1 music mod
3. turn 29 during Saka Rakums turn (AI). Repeated itself after loading the auto_save but when I loaded an earlier savegame it did not happen anymore. When the crash happened the game just stopped working, no blue screen or throwback to windows - is just froze.

Hello I was helping litharion earlier on another thread and i posted a couple save games. Well I found an earlier save that works and it may be of use to you guys to be able to compare them to see whats up as they are both identical in whats mods may have been used and so forth so there shouldn't be any other variables. I checked them both with only DEI.

1. Loaded save from yesterday first, crashing started at turn 27, started a new game, crashing started at turn 14.
2. Steam
3. GEM
4. On yesterdays save game, it crashes on turn 27, after i press end turn button, and it gets to AI Massagetaes move. In a new game, same thing happens, but it crashes on Roxolanis turn this time.

Standalone verion , no other mods , new game old saves deleted and I get crash when I start the game during first loading

[Le_Swede]

1. I'm getting a crash whenever I try to start a new campaign. Custom battles work however.

2. I am using the twc-version.

3. I'm using GEM, the bullgod's unit cards for DeI (including the new ones for the Roman Auxilary units) and Rome: Total War Music.

4. See 1.

[Mhantra]

1. New game
2. Freshly installed, from scratch, Steam version.
3. Only the Bloody UI mod (new versions of DEI and TW2 patches I always go lean)
4. I was at turn 10 as Getae, attacked Bastarne and won the battle. When exiting back out to campaign screen, I never got there. It locked.

If you are crashing during loading, that is another issue. Either that save is way too old or you have a mod conflict.


For those with crashes, Please try this fix (load it before DeI) and report back if it solves your issue.

It's a bit strange from the start, because my mod manager says part 1-5 are out of date. Only part 6 is okay. I have to enable out-of-date-mods to run 0.9 with success. But maybe this is an other issue.

[Dresden]

The other 5 parts are out of date because I do not have access to them. That is why I have uploaded Part 6 (to make them compatible). However, we will eventually be uploading an entirely new version most likely.

Fresh game
Only Dei
Random crashes at ai turns,playing as seleucids

[Dresden]

Did you try using the fix pack?

[Wittman]

Nope,will try now

So far I still get intermittent crashes. But that is with a new game rather than an old save from prior 0.9.

Crashes on AI turns with the new version? Or crashes at other times?

So far I have gotten crashes with a different faction every now and then. I keep reloading and it goes through fine. The last one I auto-resolved and it CTD. Whether I can see them or not the Ai seems to be doing some weird stuff.

I do not know how to upload saved games for you to see. Sorry about that.

[Raftermandk]

I tried the fix Dresden, but i'm still crashing when Media Atropatene is having their turn. Everytime I hit "End Turn" it crashes the exact same place... =/

[MarvinMartian]

Hello, i also tried the fix, unfortunately, it didn't work for me.

[Dresden]

Blah...okay...back to the drawing board.

If you guys could upload your save games it would be very useful.
