I thought we were all good but then... CTD Hell!

The mod is working great with everything except the last two ships, SS Esperia and HS Dnepr.

Load with just GWX - no problems
Load with all ships enabled - no problems.
Load with all campaign files - CTD
Load with campaign files for all ships except above two - no problems.
Load just campaign file for HS Dnepr (no GWX campaign) - no problems.
Load just campaign file for SS Esperia - no problems.
Load with either campaign file merged - CTD.

There seems to be a conflict between the campaigns for HS Dnepr, SS Esperia and the GWX campaign file. I've even rewritten the Dnepr campaign to ensure it's not a ship selection issue and it still CTD'd.

I'll be spending the weekend fault finding, watch this space!

Just found this thread. Just wanted to say keep up the good work WB!

I'll be installing after the bugs are worked out, AND I get GWX3 reinstalled.

That's a bugga....I'm off this weekend if there's anything you require

All the ships open in the museum so it's not a problem with the ships. What's weird is that the separate ship _SCR files all open and play well in the campaign, but as soon as I try to merge them I get a CTD.

The issues only start in late '42 so I'm looking for a scripting issue or ship conflict around that time. I'm guessing that there's a problem with one of the original GWX liners conflicting with VonDos' and causing a CTD.

The usual reason for CTDs is for the campaign to have a ship scripted into it that doesn't exist in the Roster or Sea files, so I think there may be a drama with my mod over writing one of the original GWX ships or adjusting it to the extent that the original GWX ship isn't recognised

I haven't checked because I'm not sure which version I have but have you expanded both ships entry and exit times to coincide with the total length of the war?

Hunter · 11-07-09, 08:23 AM

Anyone to upload GWX campaign files with merged VonDos ships?

Wreford-Brown · 11-07-09, 08:05 PM

Found out what the problem was and mod is back on track.

Well....are we to be kept in suspenders....what was the problem?

Wreford-Brown · 11-08-09, 04:24 AM

The problem was with my Esperia campaign file. I had a legacy ship in there that's not included in GWX, St Naz or my mod so anyone trying to play after Aug 1941 would suffer a CTD. I didn't find it during Esperia testing as I wasn't using a fresh install but had rolled back to what I thought were the base files. Lazy

. It will probably be a problem with my Esperia add on as well and I hope people backed up their campaign_SCR files as the Readme suggests. The problem will be sorted for the release of this mod.

I'm just glad that I've taken the time to test properly rather than rush the mod out. No deadline!

For my Beta testers, a fixed version of the Beta (1.2) is on my FF site. Five to go!

Password remains the same.

Dear WB,

Unfortunately I'm mid-patrol so it will be a little while before I can opt-in.

I could never sink the West Point even if I found - I once sailed in it!
