Crash Issue

[romandain]

I have enjoyed Thal's Mod's for a long time and this is the first time that I have had any real issues with them. I am using the latest versions of the mods (1.13 GEM & the latest CivUP 2.41 i think >.<) and the game runs fine until I encounter another Civ. Where the introduction animation screen usually comes up with the dialogue of the new ruler the game just freezes/crashes.

I have tried loading other mods other than those to and have no problems throughout the duration as well as playing the normal game with no problems at all.

I have "verified local game cache" in steam after the crash and 2 files come up invalid and are re-downloaded (8.0 mb's total) and the same thing happens again after each crash.

I have also completely uninstalled and re-installed the game and the same thing happens.

Any idea's??? I am out of them >.<;

Welcome to the community!

Have you tried the things on the common checklist for playing mods? In particular, check if your version of Civ 5 is up to date, and there are no disabled mods installed in the mods folder. I have not encountered a problem that requires reinstalling the game, so you don't need to do that.

Thank you for replying Thal. You're group does an amazing job on this mod suite

I am currently playing on a Win 7 PC running Civ 1.0.2.21 with your 2 mods as the only 2 that I am running. Civ 5 unofficial patch 2.4.1 (v1) & GEM 1.13.1 (v1)

I have deleted the Cache and the ModUserData folder contents as recommended, verified local cache through Steam and all files came up good. I started another game as soon and all was running smooth until I ran into another Civ and then it crashes. It doesn't go into a "not responding" state it just freezes and as soon as I hit esc, spacebar, or enter it just closes.

I run the verification of files again through steam and it now says 2 files are unverified and are downloaded totaling 8 Mb's. However I cant find in any log file what 2 files are being downloaded.

Is there any type of debugging that I can do to help narrow down what is causing this. It would seem that this is something more than the mod but when I play the normal game or install and run a different mod this does not happen.

Thank you for the help

I haven't seen a problem like this before. Which DLCs do you have installed? Does this happen with any leader, or a specific leader?

I Always Seem to miss those 2 files. Possibly files that the mods change but game looks for when verifying!?

On the other hand; my games crashes a lot just after entering the renaissance era, usually when exploring. Haven't looked through any logs yet, not quite sure how I do that :/

I have played about 2 dozen random games on standards to huge size maps with different leaders. Meeting City states is fine but only when I run into my first major civilization does this happen. It doesnt seem to be tied to any specific major Civ either. When you first meet them and the introduction window is supposed to come up is where it dies.

 

[Thalassicus]

Hmm...

What do you have Leader Scene Quality set to in the game's video options? Try it on Low... I honestly doubt that is the problem, but it's worth checking.

That seemed to have worked. I am not sure how it worked but it did. Everything is set to high but that now and my video card, CPU, and RAM should handle that. It's FM \o/ Thx ^.^
