Reliable CTD savegame

[gmc415]

Hello.

I have a savegame that is crashing to desktop for me reliably. I have experienced 4 CTDs within 6 months of this savegame.

Would it be useful for me to send it to someone? If so, how?

Could you first provide some additional information. Firstly, which version of CK are you using? Secondly, are you using any mods at all? Thirdly, in what kind of circumstances it crashes?

Fourthly, "reliable CTD savegame" is a tad oxymoronic, no?

No need to pick at others, Mib, if they don't get the syntax perfectly right.

Thanks for the quick replies.

My version reports as "1.04b BETA (June 3 2005)".

I'm not sure about the specifics of the details that are most helpful to you, so I'll start with this. If you give me an idea of what sorts of information is most helpful, I can provide it...

I hold all Iberian kingdoms plus Mauretania, my char is the papal controller, there is an active crusade for Antiocheia, called via event by my character, and I'm at war with several North African Kingdoms (muslim realms that fall within the creatable kingdom of North Africa ).

This savegame has crashed to desktop withing 6 months of launching, on 4 different occasions. I haven't identified a definite trigger for the crash. It seems to happen after different amounts of time in each case. The constant is that I am actively warring with Muslims and claiming counties for myself and my vassals.

P.S.

By "reliable CTD savegame", I meant a savegame that is reliably producing a CTD for me. I am a programmer by trade, so a game artifact that reliably reproduces a failure state seemed like a useful thing. Sorry if this caused any confusion.

That is quite splendid level of information. I presume that you have the december beta patch, even if it says june in the starting screen (which is as it should, time stamp hasn't been updated since june for some reason). If you'd like to make sure you have the december beta, you can always check the last modified date on Crusaders.exe and if it's december 8th, then it's good.

And you may send the save to: byakhiam AT yahoo DOT com - replace capitalized parts with symbols as appropriate.

Thank you, Byakhiam. I was away for a couple days. I'll try to send you the savegame tonight, along with more detail.
