Well, your description with no text in the main menu is an indicator for not playing C2C in english.
Other than that i have no other solution / advice.

Update I get the same problem with the Fall further mod, tried to do the same thing with it as I did this one and I get the same results.... Fall from heaven works though.... so it's somethign that FF and C2C has that FfH don't that is messing up on my end x.x

edit

ok I got Fall further to load a game (no menu just blind clicking) but the menu screen was still there in game untill I ended the turn......there was this massive brown 3d artifact in the middle of the screen, selecting a unit got rid of it but there was no UI, and when the unit moved the game crashed with no error message.

Ok menu works now with CC driver update..... however now when the game starts I still get the C++ runtime error

Azraile · Jul 15, 2011

OK try this:
go to your start button and then where it says "search programs and files" type in DXDIAG and run that, then put a copy of it here and i will look at it.

i just installed C2C, it works fantastic so far, but then i noticed that only Australia has a Unique Building. Is that right, or did I not install it correctly?

strategyonly · Jul 16, 2011

UPDATE Version 14 is out as of 3:15 am, a brand new way to play the game.

Vaya · Jul 16, 2011

Omg guys seriously, whenerver I download new version and start plaing a new game there is every time a new version until I finish it. Not to mention that I never made it through modern era

But that is actually a good thing..

And I want to thank you as well for your magnificient work you are doing here, currently I play v.13 and there is significant improvement in civics. Although I didn't get to new options so far, I like rebalanced old civics very very much. Finally I really have to consider which civic to pick, all of them have some advantages and disadvantages and it's not that obvious pick as it was in previous versions...

This is a great mod, I only wish that AI was more competitive, it has been a long time since it managed to conquer any of my cities and I think last time it sadly was few years ago in vanilla BTS

I have a question for Strategyonly, but first a big complements for this great mod. It makes CIV 4 so much more complete, and more fun to play than the original

My problem is that when I start a game (including version 13), I usually get to play for 100 to 150 turns, after I get a CTD. I just don't make it beyond the prehistoric age. The only message is a standard message from Windows telling me that some error has occured. When I reload the game, I get the same CTD around the same turn.

Now I've noticed something strange. I've also played the mod's Realism Invictus, Start Trek and FtH. I've never had any problems an I'm able to play them for as long as I want to. The only other Mod which give's me the exact same problem is the Mod Rise of Mankind. The same CTD with the same standard message from Windows. The only difference is that I can play that one for at least then times longer before it crashes. I noticed this because these are the only two Mod's which go beyond the modern age.

I have a pretty updated pc: Intel I7 CPU, with 6GB ddr3 memory and an ATI Radeon HD 4800. My OS is Windows Vista 64. These CTD's are obviously no MAF's.

I'm starting to get a little bit desperated since I don't get a chance to play this great mod. Could you please help me out, and tell me what the probable cause of these CTD's are, and how to solve this?

Thanx in advance for your time :thanx:

First off, Welcome to CFC

2nd You cant compare this mod to any other mod in Civ 4, sorry, its just to HUGE too compare to anything.

3rd You need to save the game under Maximum Compatibility, and attach said game here, plus the current logs, ONE turn BEFORE CTD.

In version 14 if you look in the XML file area there is a file named "A_New_Dawn_GlobalDefines" at the very bottom you will see this:

Code:

	<Define>
		<DefineName>ALWAYS_USE_MAX_COMPAT_SAVES</DefineName>
		<iDefineIntVal>0</iDefineIntVal>
	</Define>

just change it to this:

Code:

        <Define>
		<DefineName>ALWAYS_USE_MAX_COMPAT_SAVES</DefineName>
		<iDefineIntVal>[B]1[/B]</iDefineIntVal>
	</Define>

then no one has to worry about autosaves etc, because "we" at C2C cannot work with them, just too many changes each day, and sometimes every few hours.

Just a question: Is it possible that you add some Units from ROM Expansion 3.1? Especially WW1 Infantry - the step from Rifleman to Infantry is too big in my opinion.

They should be the same since RoM 3.1 was along time ago, and has since been outdated. :crazyeye:

I personally have not looked at that, dont even know whose doing it, sorry :blush:

If you want stuff added, just put it in the ideas/suggestions area, with an explanation of why and where you'd like it/civ/unit to be. And thx for the question.

btw Welcome to CFC.

Azraile · Jul 16, 2011

Hello, first let me express my gratitude for putting together this Mod. I understand that you must have put in hundreds to thousands of hours to make this for the community and I want to recognize that.

I'm having an issue with the game crashing to desktop at the same turn and have attached the save game in question. I would attach the logs, however, the only logs I have found, PythonErr2 and some others, do not seem to have any information in them that was helpful in determining the crash, though, I may be overlooking something or looking in the wrong place for the logs to begin with. If you could take a look at this and tell me what I can do to salvage the game I would be grateful.

This one I was playing with Worldbuilder to some degree to experiment with some settings for the different mods. I will say I have learned very quickly that that raging barbarians with Neanderthals on the slowest game setting is a very, very bad idea as they fairly quickly consumed every other civilization on the map and are only now beginning to resettle. It remains to be seen if they will get eaten again.

From a review of your graphics card:

Spoiler :

Sounds like you have a very very old system, and this is a HUGE mod i really dont recommend anything less than a 64 bit system to play this. Infact this is the BIGGEST mod on CFC.

Yes it does, at the time we did not have all Embassies working, and still are missing some from EXTRA civs, but you still can play with it even with version 14.

Azraile · Jul 16, 2011

not an old system I just downgraded from vista because I couldn't stand it and a 32 bit OS was all I had...

I need to get windows 7 >.>
