CTD - a new one maybe?

ok this is the problem. I played all day yesterday and saved my game, I was playing Skjalm hvide count of Sjælland, and I have become king of Denmark.
Besides being King of Denmark I am count of Fyn and Sjælland. My oldest son is duke of Skåne, and of Mecklenborg as well as count of Skåne, Halland, Lubeck and Mecklenborg. The next son is bishop of Bornholm and 2 German provinces (can't remember there name, they are positioned right next to Mecklenborg). Besides that My other Bastard son is count of Jylland and Schleswig and three counts outside the family is counts of Rügen, (another German province further to the east of Mecklenborg) and Holstein.

All the sons of Skjalm hvide is called Hvide as surname like Jens hvide and Knud Hvide.

My law is the one that the strongest son inherits all, if he dies etc. (or maybe it is the one with the oldest son... is that important?)

Skjalm Hvide is quite old and might die, but when i was going to load the game it just crashes a few minutes into the game. The year is 1104.

I never get to se anything with inheritance so i don't know if that is the problem?

My computer is an AMD xp 1800+, 256 DDR ram, 16gb harddrive, creative soundblaster live soundcard, soltek motherboard.

I have tryed running at different speeds in the beginning to see if it helps.. it does not. And it crashes every time!!!.

If you need futher specification please tell me so, id like this fixed if possible.

It is not an inheritance bug. It doesn't what dynasti you play, byzans or any other. The game simply crashes on the 1st of august. In the log, saxony has just declared war on Kingdom of Denmark.

But that is it. Then the game crashes....

SO DAMN irritating.

Ill try and go a bit further back to see if that changes anything, when i get to the 1st of august 1104

Actually , if the game is crashing when going at a fast speed, it's still a bug, I don't think the case is closed at all, I would like this to get fixed too.. and what did he say about the save game bug that occured after he got past this date? it looks like it had permanent implications on his game also.
 
Let me elaborate myself:

As there are enough 100% reprocudable bugs to fix for 1.02, vague reports aren't looked upon. Fixing the sure ones normally means double the amount of vague or unreproducable bugs are fixed as well. Saying "no problem at all" was not a good choice of words from me, though.

And the save problem is another bug that even has it's own thread here somewhere.
 
I don't remember it being vague ? this is a real bug, it crashed whenever he hit a specific date going at a fast speed, I have the same problem and my game cannot get passed jan 8th, I even tried slowing the game down to very slow and that doesn't work for me :( Regardless of whether or not this bug is worthy of being classes as a normal bug, I still would appreciate any assistance for myself and the gentleman who originally posted, Is it possible to change the date of the game to the 9th of January for example? so I can skip the dreaded january the 8th crash and get on with my game?

In short, if my game has to be discontinued because I can not get past a certain date due to ctd's you cannot get a more major bug than that, because unlike other bugs that simply create glitches in the game, this bug prevents me from playing my game at all and personally I would give this a higher priority than bugs that just create glitches.
 
Here's the thread about the save bug http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=139583 I mentioned.

If that problem would have been reported individually by Gellert it would have been dealt ASAP, but there are loads of examples about it from other posters in the other thread. He had a bug of his own, i.e. the bug this thread is about, but managed to get past it by using slow speed. Since you apparently can't I'd wager your bug has to do with the one in the other thread.

I don't know of a way to skip a crashdate, perhaps it's even not possible as the save might have for instance character IDs that are in conflict or whatever. What I do know is there will not be a 1.02 without that bug being fixed.
 
if the game was started with 1.02 mail the crashing save to me with a link to this thread.

Please do not highjack a thread about a CTD to report the fact you have a CTD yourself, as the conditions for it to happen could be quite different.

Please before reporting a bug,

- verify first that the bug doesn't exist already in the buglist OR in the forum (using the Search function).

- only report one bug by thread.

- Use a meaningful thread title (short summary)

- CTD bug needs to be reproducible, and a save available for the moderators to transmit to Paradox.

Feel free to reopen a bug thread if you still have a CTD problem in 1.02.

Thanks, :)
