Wanted to know if this could be solvable

[Caporacolo]

Hello, i checked tons of pages everywhere regarding the problem of the crash at the loading screen of AGOT mod.

The load goes smoothly until the "creating rivers" loading screen.

I tried every combination of dlc's (i only got the expansion ones, not portraits or music etc.).

I tried installing:

Manually 0.6 version
Manually 0.5 version
With windows installer 0.6 version
With windows installer 0.5 version

And yes, i got the 2.0.4 patch.

I read that 32bit may have issues with the patch, but also read that some people with 32bit run it without any problems.

Is there any possible solution, or i just have to renounce to this mod?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Is it a CTD? Any error message?

 

[Caporacolo]

It's the runtime error message probably due to memory overuse, i don't know. I just know that other people with 32bit run the mod smoothly, just wanted to know if anyone else that had the same problem managed to solve it.

If it's consistantly the same error across both versions like that it sounds like your PC can't handle the mod unfortunately.

Ok, that's the conclusion i got to too :/
Well, i'll try to improve my PC...it seems it will be really worth it

Thanks again for your answers.

This worked for me. It was actually for getting EK to run, but it got AGOT to run as well.

Make sure you've got Legacy of Rome running; you could also try deleting your main settings file if you've run CK2 2.1 already, it changes something in there that causes a CTD if you then revert to 2.0.4 or at least it did for me (I had to delete that file last night to play an MP game of EK014b, it wouldn't let me load CK2 otherwise).

You could try increasing your virtual memory; https://www.microsoft.com/resources...vancd_perform_change_vmpagefile.mspx?mfr=true

You could also try this, copied from the LI mainthread.

*any value above 2048 really (at least 2560), but restrict it to 3072 if you only have 4GB in your system.

If it doesn't work yet, disable all non-essential DLCs* and close any other background programs so you basically only have CK2 running.

* Non-Essential DLC
- All Flag packs.
- Music Packs.
- Unit Packs.
- Sunset Invasion.

If after all that it still doesn't work, disable the Portrait DLCs one by one, checking each time to see if it runs. Start with disabling the Mongols, then the Russians, then the Medis, then the Celts, then the Africans, then the Nords.

Finally, if again it doesn't work there's not a whole lot more you can do, and EK will simply not run on your system.
