Crash Problems

Hi,

I have a problem with the build mod installed. When I enter my ship and set sail the game crashes a few seconds later. Or sometimes it just crashes immediatly during "Sea" loadup. Help, please? This occurs when the build mod is installed.
 
I believe it occurs when build 13 full is installed. that's in fact the only version I have installed
 
Yep, you're right. It happened again...and it was indeed near midnight. ah, well....no more sailing out at midnight, right? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
yup. just spend the night in the tavern before. the thing is that when the game has to load the worldmap AND the results of the rations being used, it overloads the game.

I had the exact same problem all weekend with Build 13. I originally installed via the 13full/13update route. I finally deleted that and updated via the 12/13base/13update route, and all the CTDs disappeared.
 
it's recently been found out that it's related to having a full cargo hold. try avoiding that.
 
Thanks for the advice. My problem, I'm sure, was due to a bad installation of the 13full/13update files. Whenever I installed by that route, the batch run showed three files missing. When I tried the upgrade route from 12 instead, the batch run showed nothing missing.

Anyway, I'm happy.
 
Usually when the batch file says there's files missing, it doesn't really matter, because the batch file is actually trying to remove those files. So if it does say the files are missing, it means they're already not there. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" />
 
I've the same problem: the game CTD quite often, usually when loading a new encounter. Where can I find the log the see what causes this problem? I'm using 13 final on a fresh installation with DirectSail
Thanks

Nothing crashworthy that I can see in that log. Unfortunately many CTDs don't actually generate an error message. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />
