needs some help with c3c

[redeemed]

I am having a problem with Conquests while testing a mod I am making with a friend.

When either of us go to the science advisor and try to look at the industrial age tech tree, the game crashes to windows. The games doesn't give an error message or missing file as to the reason for the crash.

We both are getting very annoyed because we can't figure out why it is crashing.

It sounds like something to do with yuor mod. Have you changed the tech-tree by any chance? If so, did you update civilopaedia.txt to reflect the changes? civilopaedia.txt can be very temperamental -> even a space out-of-place in a filename can cause crashes. Most are 'handled' and give you an excpetion error, but I'm not sure that tech ones are. Do you get any error messages at all?

This is a common probelm with mods sometimes. I have had it crash even when I have never touched the tech tree. I forget what the cause is however. I belive it had something to do with units. And if this is the error I am thinking of, then the message should be an Illegeal operation message.

no error from civ3. I added custom tech but added everything I needed to the Civilopedia. Also added the info to the PediaIcons file that needed to be. made updated tech trees too.

This mod is one my friends and I used with PTW, we are just updating it to Conquests. It run with no problems in PTW.

Here is what happens, I start c3c, load the mod, build my first city, when the science advisor asks for the first tech to be researched, I click to the middle ages, then to the industrial age, when I click to move to the industrial age, civ closes and my pc goes to desktop. No error message of any kind shows up.

checked what MarineCorps mentioned about units. I removed all the added units from the mod and the tech trees all show up with no problems.

how do I fix what is causing the problem?

nevermind figured it out. Had too many building and units tied to the Electronics tech.
