TATW DOL GULDUR CRASH

[bonebone]

HI all,

I am quite new here but i desperately need help. =D

In waiting for warhammer total war, I downloaded TATW because I can't just wait for it and i love lotr.

So i downloaded TATW 3.0, installed it, patch it to 3.2
Then i added mos 1.7 and the bugfixes 1-3.

Game launch, I started a high elves campaign, getting very thrilled and got myself into the game far more than expected . I am now very advanced in the game, push my frontlines to isengard south and captured all the westside of mirkwood quickly. I am allied with all good factions but rohan got their horse asses kicked and gondor just lost minas tirith even though i supplied them with some gold every few turns. arnor was reforged and conquered the north with the help of the dwarves. the only -but not the least- threat is mordor. dunland and isengar are getting almost eaten alive by arnor. Rhun is at a standstill with dale but now that the dwarves have finished conquering the north, they are going back to east for new lands... all my elves belongings have at least evolve to large city or higher. my economy has never been this great!

I have some big armies t3 and i just conquered dol guldur to have a fortress just on the frontline, and a good one at that! . half a full stack t3 is camped in there and i successfully repel any invader coming at me one army after another. the battles there are the most heated and my brain is sweating to keep this fortress under my command.

Here is the thing, now its turn 178. I posted a full stack of elves to be able to substain more than just one army just in case, knowing that the lord of mordor has a legion of them. 2 full stacks of mordor comes in and besiege dol guldur. I am getting over excited to be able to play this battle at almost 1elves for 7 orcs! but when i launch the battle, i can place my troops as long as i want and start but a few second later, it crashes.

I get a crash in a while like every 10h randomly, its ok. but i just can't ignore this one! plus if i auto resolve, i am losing at the odds -obviously lol-
how can i fix this please!!

my stack in the citadel consist in mainly elves t3, few homeguard warriors, 2 catapult and my noldor spearmen - yeah i did not reforge ancient elven kingdom yet -
the ennemies armies consist in a lot of different troops of orcs with only 1 catapult in each army. no troll whatsoever or spiders or anything of the sort.

--INFO--

I have windows7
16g
i5 4690
msi gtx 970

everything is updated and every driver to date.
- deleted the two geography files
- daytime off
- uac change
- put the administrator rights for the medieval folder
- deleted map.rwm
- launch the cleaner.bat
- put the Lrge adress aware and patched kingdoms.exe successfully.
- advisor is off, autosave off

I have
- medieval ttw 1.3 and kingdoms 1.05 with the 4 campaigns.
- TATW 3.2 + MOS 1.7 + bugfixes1-3

If that can help, I am running attila total war without any problem at all and still playing, same for rome 2 ttw.

So now I am just stuck here waiting for someone to help please...

Hi there, and welcome to TWC Forums

Since you have installed MOS, which is a submod for TATW, you should ask your questions in the MOS thread. You can even upload your savegame prior to this problem of yours, and post it there.
