[yjming]

What map script are you using? It shouldn't happen on normal map scripts.

 

[yjming]

standard size pangaea 317 vista os

 

[yjming]

btw,it also happends on my friend's 313 chinese version,though his pc seems to have some problems.

 

[stmartin]

Strange. It has never happened to me. What civ and leader do you pick? Will it always crash whenever you regenerate map using whatever civ and leader?

 

[yjming]

it seems happend to cao cao and liu bei as well as sun ce so far i have tried,it is fine with zhang xiu.

 

[yjming]

my game would survive 0nly if i do not choose the no hero death option,and i will not be given any heroes i used to own after i regenerate the map.

Your install only goes to Beyond the Sword, not BtS/mod/ it wont interfere with regular BtS will it??

i think i install it in the right way,plus the provided file is an exe-type file,actually i don't need to do it manually. i am so sad to be the only one to own this problem

 

[Shiggs713]

yea its quite convenient, it uses a exe and it installs to the correct place, and even includes a shortcut so you don't have to go through the whole "load mod" phase

I forgot to replace the dll in the patch A with a release version. So it will show error messages when it happen. I have reuploaded patch A.

Anyway, this is an error message, congratulations! So please attach a save game prior to the message.

ok after trolling through all of my recent save files of that Lu Bu campaign, I finally found 1 save game where Gao Shun's units aren't bugged. Of course it was the very last one I tried, and was just over 4 hours of game play prior to the game actually crashing.

If you finish killing Liu Bei, except for the last city down south/east, then make peace for whatever you can. Then move the army down to Yuan Shu, and make him capitulate, then by the time thats done, the treaty with Liu Bei will be over, make him capitulate also.

Then move the main army up to Yuan Shao, and wait for a little while, build up forges and levee's in the appropriate cities, then build up army and declare war. Let him come to you and kill his main army (he still outnumbered me at least 2:3 when I DoW'd, but my huge stack of xbows and 2 turns worth of slaughter and his main battle stack was completely dead), and you will be exactly where I was on the original save game that I posted in the other thread.

I think it is like I said in the other thread though. One of Gao Shun's non-core units died and it didn't do a correct check and adjust. All the save game's prior to this, if you do push any buttons on any Gao Shun unit it will crash. And to top it off the actual Gao Shun core unit had zero buttons to push.

I'll attach the last known good one (Early May 206) and if you want I still have like 2 others that are older than the original I posted, but Gao is bugged in them also. It seemed to have happened in the war vs Liu Bei.


btw that was on the older version 2.0 I believe (the first one to have an installer). I got the newer one now and the patch and so far haven't had this problem.

 

[AnotherPacifist]

This is not really a bug, but the new patch basically disbands all my starting units because I don't have enough cash even just to maintain them. Can we please decrease the expenditure of maintenance?

 

[stmartin]

Yes, it happens to on the biggest map. Cao Cao has too many units and Liu Zhang's city are too far away.

You can edit the 'MAX_DISTANCE_CITY_MAINTENANCE' tag in Assets\XML\GlobalDefinesAlt.xml

Current value is 40, original value is 25, pick a number you like, for now.

 

[AnotherPacifist]

Well, I'm trying my best to play within the mod. So I didn't change the numbers, I just adjusted which tiles I'm working and so far as Liu Zhang on the small! map (200 AD) I don't even have state monopoly (Wang Lang already has that and ancient dictionary). I would probably do 30 for city maintenance.
