CTD on exit to main menu

[Cybermat47]

I've started a new career with the Western Approaches campaign. Finishing the VII C training drills, I returned to Kiel, and exited to main menu.

However, the game CTD'd taking, all the ship's journal data with it.

From a gameplay point of view, this really doesn't matter. But it's still annoying, and while the VII C training drills are a basically identical experience for everyone, it's going to be especially annoying once combat begins. If I sink the Queen Mary or Ark Royal, I'd like to have some proof that it happened, without having to open up Bandicam.

Any idea for a fix for this?

I'm running the latest version of Wolves of Steel, with the 16:9 mod, as well as the A Fist Full Of Emblems, Equipment Upgrades mod AFFOE compatible (all patches), Might Fine Crew with alt faces and beards, and the latest version of TDW generic patcher with the vast majority of patches installed.

I only have around 50 GB on my HDD at the moment, maybe that has something to do with it?

Oops, accidently wrote 'A Fist Full Of Emblems' as 'A Fist Full Of Arrows'

Never had such issues...
Disable unsupported mods, restart new campaign and see what will happen...

I don't think so...

Any idea how the additional mods would be adversely affecting the game? After all, with the exception of AFFOE, they're all just slightly different versions of mods that are already included in TWoS.

Come to think of it, the issue could well lie with a mix of the TDW patches and my computer's specs

Hi Cybermat
Is just your way of explaining things?

I returned to Kiel, and exited to main menu.

Do you mean you ended the patrol using the anchor and your game immediately crashed?
Do use CTRL+F8 to check your frame rates as Kiel is notorious for bringing your frame rates right down?
Where you using a low TC at the time?

No, I clicked the anchor, went to the bunker, pressed escape, and clicked 'Exit to Main Menu', upon which the game crashed.

And you're right about Kiel being a frame-rate killer - I'm more scared of that place than I am of a RN taskforce

Well since you've added those mods I hope to hear that answer from you?

Does your game CTD without additional mods on board? If Yes, than maybe installation is corrupted or maybe some system problems?

Still CTDs without additional mods, so it must be a corrupt installation, system problems, or the fact that it's Kiel
