CTD on startup of a save game

[Rictus]

Hi guys,

I believe this goes here. Apologies if I'm in the wrong part of the forum or this needed to go to the email bug catchers, but I don't think it's something wrong with code per se, just something wrong with my save.

Basically, when I load up the save it loads about 75% before saying there is a "database mismatch 4712 XXXXXXXX" where the Xs are a series of numbers. It gives me the option to abort, retry or ignore. Abort and retry exit to desktop and pressing ignore flashes up another set of numbers. This happens about 6 times then that too exits to desktop too.

Now, I have some rudimentry knowledge of paradox games saves and I was able to find that the second set of numbers all point to various US units (I'm playing as the UK). Not sure if that's got anthing to do with it. I've edited the game mainly by loading up as other countries and I've given myself various cheats (mainly blueprints). Also not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Sorry, I should probably say I'm playing using Armageddon 1.3 and that it affects the autosaves, but not a save from considerably earlier in the game.

This is caused by duplicated unit i.d. - you'll need to edit the save game to remove these duplicates. Information here :
