CTD all the time!

[Nax24]

every time i start i new game i get at least 6 years in before the game crashes on me. This is with ALL bookmarks and scenarios. My computer has the ability to run it smoothly and i have the latest update. But until my games stop crashing randomly it is unplayable. Any idea how to fix it?

In my own experiences, I've noticed a trend that it happens during war. What's strange is while it'll crash again when I load the save to try and see if I could finish, if I select a different character it doesn't change at all.

I believe there's another thread on this. I think the newest patch got a lot of instabilities.

I think I found out what is causing the ctds. Ruins are marrying and every time their wife gets pregnant and is giving birth the game crashes.

Any idea how to quickly fix this problem? I'd like to play this mod, but the constant crashes are too much.

Try Remove slavery_events.txt from events folder. Is theory that some events can cause CTD. I try it start new campaign and play almost 15 years without CTD

Unfortunetly you can't buy, sell, breed or capture slaves

I tried this and played the mod without any crashes for hours. I suspect that the file you mentioned is a major reason for crashes. The mod developers should either fix that file or remove it completely.

Remove slavery ?

No....

I figured out a way to stop most (if not all in my case) of the crashes, editing slavery_events.txt. I removed the event chains regarding the "escape of a slave" and the "demand freedom of a relative" and it works fine, without removing slavery and all the decisions related to that (only you can't demand freedom for a kin and there won't be any slaves escaping, but it's no big deal imho). Anyway there must be something that break the game in there, but I don't know what it is.
No more crashes for me yay!

EDIT: Oh, and I removed the double "interface" folder created by the installer adding the one in the zip instead, doing that without editing the file still got me a lot of crashes but whatever, I'm just explaining how I got this awesome mod to finally work fine (got that information browsing the citadel forum).

Faber81 thank you very much. Before i had craches realy often, but after a delete the events in slavery_events.txt, i had no crush!

The CTDs are getting fixed along with new dragon mechanics in the next update. According to the "Dragon Name Suggestions" thread, it should be within this week.

When that will be, however, is unknown. Could be months, given ROI.
