HOI2 Polish (changed language on english in file settings.cfg) + english patch 1.3a + 1.3b +latest 20060107 DAIM (installed without option "Modified Events" in the installer) + SMEP 4.0
Sempron 64 2500+, 1,5 GB RAM, Geforce 6600 128 MB
WinXP +all Microsoft updates, driver updates, BIOS etc.
I know that bug is probably not hardware related and this is not Vanilla Hoi. But I don't see any forum where this thread suits better and I can't send e-mail to Tech Stuff becouse not Vanilla.
Everything from this list is done:
1) Make sure you have the latest patch for the game.
2) Rename the AVI folder to AVI_back
3) Set the color depth to 16BIT
4) Turn off everything in the background like E-mail/ICQ/Messenger, Virus protection and everything in the system tray beside the clock.
5) Run a Virus check and a Adware/Spybot checker
6) Update your Windows, update your Video card drivers and audio card drivers. Then repeat steps 1-4.
In 1942 game crashes radomly with general error 1000 (it means: application error and some data in accompat.... file). When i play I do save every day. And after a few game days - crash. Now I have to search for save which will not crash in the same time of game eg. 17.00 19 june 1942. I load it and do nothing and if it can go thru date of instant crash I play it. And so on ... so on. Playing like this - crash - good save - past about half a year. I was thinking that mayby some event crashes a game ... But searching for good saves I avoided about 6 crashing points. I tried to remove from save a line about sleep events - but it changes nothing. Does anybody has the same problems - and how to handle with it ? Turn to vanilla ? But how I remember in vanilla I have crashes too. But not so often. If it is some mistake in Mod scripting, why I can loading another save avoid the date of crash so many times ? Mayby save is too long ? 17 MB. Mayby Polish version updated by english patch ... but I don't think so - in my opinion it's only another text. And patch updates this text in English, not in polish. And someone who plays in Polish will have errors in text only. And I played from 1936 to 1942 with 1-2 crashes. But these years it was no situation that I can't go thru some date ....
If somewhere is wrong line or any mistake I probably can fix it manually. But how to find it ? When I deleted some data from any file, game in loading time show to me exactly where the error is. But when I writed something wrong to save file - it crashes only with general error. (I did that of course to learn something)
please help me somebody
