Problem with Campaign

[Prometheus214]

Hello. I tried posting this in the Bug thread but got no response. I have been playing a Byzantine campaign, and the year is 1216. I did a clean install of Medieval II, and installed the official 1.2 patch and the Bugfixer 2. However, my Byzantine campaign has reached a halt, as every time I try to fight the Kievan Rus the game crashes. So I tried installing the Bugfixer 3 but that also didn't help the problem. Any ideas? My log in Medieval 2 reads as follows:

Is this what is causing the problem? Thanks a lot for your help!

No this error is just cosmetics

Maybe this helps:
Help Tips:
- install sequence: MTW, patch 1.2, DLV 3.0, bugfixer_03
- your installation in the main data path should be clean
- don't use a no-cd crack: reported to freeze the campaign
- install the newest .net framework from microsoft
- try to scroll over the campaign screen without clicking on a unit: avoids freezing and slowdowns
- if you have unpacked the pack files into the standard path (not necessary for my mod) don't forget to delete the 2 geography files
- Text problems: Go into the path: C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\DLV_ext\data\text and delete all bin (strings) files, they will be regenerated
- Campaign map problems: Go into the path: C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\DLV_ext\world\maps\base and delete map.rwm, it will be regenerated with the next campaign restart


If not there are still some errors with the name files, so maybe play another faction at the moment

My campaign game also crashed on end turn of 1216-17. Were you able to fix this error?

I got the same issue. I'll post a full description on the bug thread with a log.
