    Nothing innocuous in there, just regular battle script processing. Have you tried fighting in a different place? Does it crash if you autoresolve?

    i've tried attack first sparta then corinthus, then in diffrent order... always same result in crash because of graphic settings are too high, but as i mentioned before i've tred many resolutions and details levels , is it possible that crash is a result of operation system (win 10)?

    I mean from a different map tile, not a different order of attacking. Does it crash when you autoresolve, instead of fighting on the battlemap?

    That log doesn't even have a terminating error in it, is it from the crash you've screenshotted?

    Can you try to replicate the crash with the logging set to trace, rather than error? Those short logs don't really say much.

    Hi guys

    I'm having a similar crash (well, similar crashes) either when I'm loading a siege battle, or when I finish the siege battle and go back to the campaign map. In both cases I was playing as Makedonia. I've already reinstalled EBII, reinstalled the drivers, but nothing worked.

    Funny thing is, I was able to play some of the battles right after I've installed 2.3. However, some of the same battles aren't working anymore. I guess it's important to say I've never had similar problems with the previous versions.

    The error messages I get are exactly like Gordianus', and here's the log file

    Any kind of help would be immensely appreciated. This is easily one of the best games I've ever played, and I can't thank you guys enough for putting it all together.

    Give it 10-15 seconds from the end of battle summary screen until actually closing it in a way that starts the campaign loading again. It needs time to settle after a big battle before it can return to the campaign crash-free. As far as on battle load, you might simply be running out of memory if you have a lot of units on the screen. This is an inherent limitation of older 32 bit games designed to use only 2GB of RAM. Unfortunately CA hasn't released an updated version of the EXE that takes advantage of a broader range of addressable memory, and any third party tools might be considered violating the terms of service of the game and thus could not be advocated here.

    Thank you for the reply, myarta

    I did try that waiting thing, even waiting like 10 minutes, but to no avail. I'll take a look at other possibilities.

    Thank you once again!

    Hi,

    i have the same problem at siege battles. After the battle is over and i want to go back to the campaign screen and the game crashes. Sometimes it happens when the games starts to load the campaign und sometimes when its about to finish. This happend with Rome and Seleukids. Like Severloh i had no problems like this in 2.2b which i played before updating to 2.3.

    i tried waiting up to 5 minutes after finishing the siege battle but the game crashed anyway.

    Pergamon, turn 3, sieging Nikaia from the south-west. Getting attacked by rebel army to my army's south-west, but game crashes when trying to load up the battlemap.

    Note that the logs are being saved to the main M2TW folder rather than mods/ebii/logs. Have set borderless windowed mode, and unlimited_men_on_battlefield = 0.

    Tried again. Sieging Nikaia from south side, attacked from north-west, still crashes. Logs still saving in the wrong place, but I doubt it makes any functional difference. Have my .cfg (as a .txt) as well for reference.

    While there's a lot in that log, it's all normal processing. Nothing unsual at all, and there's ages between the last trace and crash.

    In both instances, nothing out of the ordinary in the logs, and a log time between the last trace and crash. Looks like you're simply running out of memory.
