Microsoft visual C++ runtime library error

[Ayeshteni]

never had this error before!

OK Didnt know whether to post here or in tech support. As I have played EU2 for donkeys and this hasnt happened in other patches I thought here would be best.

Have twice had a runtime error under latest patch. Instaed of usual ctd a message pops up with...

Microsoft visual C++ runtime library
runtime error!
program files\..etc...\EU2.exe
R6025
-pure virtual function call

I have no idea what it means, but the only option is to press return or enter which returns to desktop (mouse freezes so enter had to be pressed). Apart from this message it seems just like a ctd.

It seems to be random - not on a specific date, but they happened on 'may 3 1470 and dec 7 1511'. wondering if any-one else has this prob or just me? I have made changes, so it is not quite vanilla-GC, but as I said I havent had it before so just thought I would mention it.

COMP specs are (if I can remember!) - athelon 2 1200 224mb RAM 32mb vid card I think (no 3d accel)

I have had this one before and I believe there's a thread in here somewhere. In my case (and the others IIRC) it was when a country tries to secede more provinces than it has via event. Check the last event that fired.

You say "latest beta" but can you just confirm you have March 2 installed?

But yes, if you've modded something, as Kephren says you can trigger problems.

yes latest beta. I have not modded anything since installing mar2 beta (though I used latest files (country, text, revolt etc) and transferred my scen infomation onto it)

while I have had ctd's in the past (I expect them after modding) I have not had this runtime error before.

I have only had it twice on dates specified, non-repeatable, nothing after that (circa 1550's now)

yours, not overly concerned but thought I should inform.

I also have this problem, but in MP. The game crashes at no specific date or event and produces one of those popups that Ayeshteni describes.
I have the latest beta and all that, so thats not the problem.
