Old Bug Reports

Aside from saving the Lua files (explained in the first thread post), you'll need to click on the "go advanced" button in order to access the menu option which will allow you to post a file (Lua) from your computer. It'll be the button which looks like a plain paper clip.

Do i need to go more than 1 turn back in time?

Parthius · Feb 17, 2013

No, use the saved game from right before it crashes. Use IGE to look for a convoy near (within 1 hex of (83,11) and delete it. Then you should be able to end the turn and make it to the next turn without it crashing. Eventually (possibly the next turn), you will have to repeat the procedure with another convoy (I had to do it six or eight times in over 200 turns, so its not bad given it lets you play) if you get another convoy crash.

ilshur · Feb 17, 2013

Repost(Like all good science, trial and error takes tremendous investment of time. The stable workaround i've managed after 5 or 6 crashes is to go back _two_ turns before the crash and delete the convoy that will cause the crash. I haven't until now, but from now on im going to note the specific tile and turn# of the crash-causing convoy and see if we can determine a pattern (unless its known to be specifically random)

On a separate issue, i'm playing as Germany and i just noticed the trade routes aren't connected, and its an incredibly disadvantageous strain on my economy. It'd be eminently stupid if this was a special rule against Germany prohibiting trade, because all of the buildings cost the same and that loss of gold alone hamstrings Germany pretty terribly early on.

Any idea on a workaround for enabling trade routes?

Fixing the trade routes of 1936 germany should be a high priority for T_K and gede, either way. Looking forward to seeing if this shyt crashes when Austria and bohemia get annexed )

-

But i'd like to emphasize how might it be possible to fix the trade route issue? i tried tinkering with resetting roads/railroads and it wouldn't link the cities, im kind of baffled at what other internal mechanism it might be.

Major.Dump · Feb 18, 2013

The best workaround I did was comment out the british convoy scripts so that they never run. That eliminated 99% of my crashes on 1936 Earth. There appears to be a CvGameCoreDLLFinalRelease.dll crash on that map around 120 turns in. In two separate games I've been able to stave off all crashes except this one. The 1936 Earth map must be calling a function in that DLL that either does not exist, or does not work causing a crash. But I'm not sure what...

g0ldfinger · Feb 20, 2013

hey i know its a known issue with the convoys but I was under the assumption it was the UK convoys somthing with teh location of the citys i think? any way i played the 1936 North America / Europe scenario as the US and crashed after turn 12 during the USSR turn here is the end of the lua i have included the succeful convoy move the went right before the crash dont know if its usefull..

could i ask for a spoiler here explaining what importance the convoys has on the game and if the importance is miniscule why not simply remove the convoys or perhaps replace them some how with the other wise disabled trade system?

Parthius · Feb 20, 2013

Having played as England in the 1939 scenario, I can attest to the importance of convoys. The convoys to England included both men/material and Sherman tanks. Both made a significant difference.

Telemaco · Feb 22, 2013

Hi,
I tried to open the autosave_EndTurn file after a crash, but:
1) Personell and materiel were disappeared and their numbers were 0/0.
2) Cities were able to produce everything of any civ.
I deleted the cache content, and I tried again, but nothing.
I sent the lua.log and the autosave in attachment.

I tried to open a previous saving file (not autosave) and everything is fine

Thanks

Gedemon · Feb 22, 2013

can you check if you don't have an older version of R.E.D WWII edition in your mod folder please ?

Telemaco · Feb 22, 2013

I have only this version 3.7 4.0. I have never had any older version.

Gedemon · Feb 22, 2013

ok, thanks for the report, I'll have a look at this

ilshur · Feb 22, 2013

i recognize that this isn't related specifically to your mod, but i'm wondering if the R.E.D. illuminati have any light to shine my way:

Steam workshop files won't update or visibly download at all. Any way to jump start that? i deleted everything and re downloaded civ5 after my latest round of fatal errors (the UNIT_INFANTRY one) but now i cannot download any mods. Its tremendously frustrating. There is another thread with a few other people mentioning a similar problem over the last few days, but it doesn't seem to present any solutions, so i thought i'd bring my complaint to a place were some with skill in these things could see it and possibly help.

Gedemon · Feb 22, 2013

deleting the cache should fix it.

if not, then deleting the cache AND the R.E.D. WWII mod's files and folders in the MODS folder are the way to go.

The troubleshooting is in the Download, Installation & Troubleshooting thread, see this post for Steam.

Hotseat constantly crashes on the starting player's 2nd turn. Meaning when the first human player gets to their second turn, without clicking continue, it just crashes.

NwabudikeMorgan · Feb 23, 2013

I'm having the same problem as gargoyle, I can get through the fake first player in greenland or whatever, play through my turn, then get to the next players screen, I can save if i want, but as soon as i hit continue it crashes, and if i load that save i can play player 2, but then it crashes going to player 3

Nemovadit · Feb 24, 2013

Though not exactly a bug, it seems you forgot the Tetrarch in the list of available units for the UK in RedDefinesUnits so you can build the project but you can't build the light tank!

pillyg · Feb 24, 2013

I am having problems with the mod. After 2 or 3 turns the game will crash. When I look in event manager I see CvGameCoreDLLFinalRelease.dll as the cause. I do not have G+K. Has anyone else had this error or know how to fix it?

Gedemon · Feb 24, 2013

I'll have a look at hotseat ASAP (which may not be as soon as I want). I've just checked that the problem wasn't coming from the last patch, hotseat & mod by successfully converting a map to hotseat with another mod, so the problem is in R.E.D. updates...

I'll check the Tetrarch too, thanks.
