EEP crashes under the new beta! when i've selected a nation and the loading bar is almost full it CtD's

a friend told me about it, and i just tried it. it crashes on both machines.

anyone else seen this?
what am i going to do without EEP? *cries*

:)

EDIT: the same happens with old saves. it must be some incompatibility between eep and the new things in the beta
 
I think its a problem in the old text.csv thats included with EEP.

I think someone will need to port all the events, countries, and cultures over from the old form of text.csv, into a copy of the new one for EEP.

Long, time consuming and tedious.
But I think it may be necessary.

I wouldnt bother about the AGC - there was already so much wrong/missing from that anyway that it would take to long to get it going properly.

Consult the EEP crew about it? ;)

though i generally agree that threads should be moved in some cases,
i consider this barbaric.

i agree it concerns EEP, but it also concerns some other mods that have been made or are being made. i.e. from what i suspected would be causing the problem and from what others have suggested is causing it.

perhaps You got too fond of moving things.

i guess now a new thread will have to be made about it. and a big one too.
unless everyone thinks in advance about what files are being replaced. and i doubt everyone will do that.
you'll be hearing about it a lot, i guess

EEP and AoN with 7 feb CTD :mad:

Problem is initial data country, every *.inc in 1419 and 1520 folder

Only this is problem

Are you sure of this. I cannot find any changes in the inc files, and all of them were not replaced in the patch, so I don't think it's them.
 
Yes , Im sure.

I copy to 1419 EEP scenario, inc from AGC-EEP and working OK

When I copy EEP inc to AGC-EEP - CTD

Every operation in EEP folder.
 
ok... well that will prolly stimulate me to finally play agceep for more than 10 mintues...

anyway, which files exactly should i copy and will this lead to changes in the EEP i know? the scenario *.inc files only?
 
Well, you can't really copy it across because it assigns the initial tags to countries and the setup is different in EEP and AGCEEP - not greatly different but different enough. The AGCEEP uses the old 'Auvergne' tag for Mangindanao/Sulu for example and I don't think the EEP events would then make much sense :)

Just copying across the initial .inc file has the same effect as copying across all the country files - the countries included will be from the AGCEEP directory and not the EEP one.
 
Any idea what the incompatibility is?

So far no, but it cannot be all the inc files, since most of them are the same in vanilla GC as in the official 1.07 patch. AGC_EEP are as old as EEP when it comes to inc files, so it must be mostly luck that it works :( Perhaps something with straitscode? Any ideas would be appreciated. Everything added into text.csv are in the bug thread, if you'd like to add it manually.
 
Norrefeldt - are you working on getting EEP compatible with the new Betas?

If you are then Id like to suggest that the problem lies in the text.csv.

EEP only changes cultures and events right?

So its really only a matter of picking out the cultures and events from the old text.csv of EEP and placing them in a copy of the newer text.csv and replacing that over the old one.

I would bet that everything would work fine then.

Its mostly time consuming - I know how long it took me to convert my own little Byz mod from the old form on the old text.csv in the old betas to the new one; bloody hours and I only had around 20 events at the time...

Yes I do, most of the bug list is done by now. (But since I'm going away for a week nothing will happen soon.) In that list are the things that have changed in text.csv, 10-15 lines are added. Up till now it hasn't been necessary to include new lines into text.csv, if there is a text missing somewhere there was always a UNKNOWN TEXSTRING WANTED, or something like that. Might be that one of the new betas have some text that are not catching this as an exception error, i e the text string *has* to be included. Otherwise I think it would suffice with including the new lines. At least this is what I will start to do.

Ah lazy git. :p ;)

The way the new text.csv is set out is so much neater and nicer; and ur cheating by simply copying the new bits into the old text.csv...

Typical man... :rolleyes: :p :D
 
Sadly, I'm not sure it is the text.csv - I compared it with the text.csv from AGCEEP which is fairly easy to do 'line by line' as they're not that different - only in descriptions. Once I'd made the EEP text.csv to be the same as AGCEEP it still wouldn't run. AS AGCEEP does, this seems to point to a problem elsewhere :(
 
sorry for my interuption here, i'm finally downloaded eep, yeah only yesturday :rolleyes: , and it crashed me to desctop with GC, still 1520 is working fine, so i checked some 1419 setup and cant find few announced(in readme) countries in inc files like "Transoxiana (U03)" and "Rajputana, new culture Rajput", maybe i just.. cant find it, or they r already absolete? i just want to help... sadly, i want to start gc for some italian minor to form kingdom of Italy with this version of eep, the sequence in event files looking just superb, though i'm trying it with 1520 scen right now :)
 
I have a text.csv that works with the 7th Feb beta, minimal CTDs (just the usual amount for my crappy computer). I'm in the process of uploading it, will post link in the Buglist thread
