Tsardoms Total War - Campaign Feedback, Bugs and Reports

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

I didn't get a siege of Konstantinople, Smederovo I had, I've even posted screens. But I just began 1454...strange
It seems Mehmet the conqueror hasn't spawned at turn 24
I went back to look. I'm going to have to start again

Which faction are you playing as? The event only appears if you play as Romans.

[jurcek1987]

Siege of Constantinople happens in every campaign except if you're playing as Ottomans. It won't activate only if the city was already in Ottoman hands by then. Mehmed spawns on turn 22

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

I'm playing as Serbia but I have spies everywhere.

[Beans of Victory]

There are a few reports of the siege of constantinople causing CTD so there must be something happening there.

So should I just wait until someone figures out what's going on?

Which Medieval 2 version are you using?

I'm using the Medieval 2 from Steam.

[jurcek1987]

Maybe try and download M2 disc version (not sure if I can even talk about it here though)

[Antiokhos Euergetes]

I'm using steam version 1.52. Never had a crash... Tempting fortuna

I think the problem is my computer is too powerful to run Medieval 2. Have an Alienware m16 R1 the latest model.

I see the log in the Fall of Caonstantinople preferences says this: [log] to = mods/Fall_of_Constantinople_1.5/logs/tsardoms.log.txt # path and name of log
level=* trace # detailed log
#level = * error # basic log

Just a quick question regarding mercs. In particular wagon krieg, I've hired a few in Moravia (Austria campaign) but will they become available in mercenary barracks? I'm more concerned that the Ottomans can get them their Tabors as they called them.
Thank you

If you are using the 4gb patch (I have it applied to both medieval and kingdoms.exe) and you are still getting CTDs then yes it is probably some sort of system incompatibility.

I play Medieval 2 on a 5 year old laptop and it runs smooth as, no CTDs. I will try it on my gaming desktop to see if it works or not.

Someone on facebook found the craziest fix. They said that they kept getting CTDs even with 4gb. So they installed a disc version of Medieval 2 Kingdoms version 1.52 and applied Tsardoms to it and it worked perfect.

No idea how and why that is. It's just a really old game engine and there's lots of little quirks that we are not aware of.

The Ottomans gain access to them with the highest level of Cannon buildings (too early for me to remember how they are called exactly, but you know what i mean )

From my experience people usually install the game wrong. Like they don't actually patch kingdoms.exe, or they don't even have kingdom.exe etc, and they give up too soon thinking they have a too modern PC. I have a 3 year old gaming PC, and i never had any issues whatsoever. Sure there are probably some cases where the game doesn't work for some due to some weird new pc reason, but usually it's a bad install.

There is something weird about the diplomacy. I'm at war with the Ottomans and even besieging Vidin (just to annoy them) and I get a message saying that relations are good. How bizarre

It's the same for me with Epiros campaing. Though I'm using it in my favour: I take one or two sentlements before ask for peace that the Ottomans always happily acept. With enemies like that why do you need enemies?

That's very strange. Wonder why that is.

But you know you can use forced diplomacy to get the AI To accept whatever you want them to?

I got the game to work by working on the LAA and lower graphics settings

The new AI seems to be acting up like that... What campaign difficulty are you guys using when the AI behaves like this?
