Campaign Crash

Gratuitous Forum Support
1

Hello,

I have been struggling with this problem for the last 3 weeks now. I love this game but I am about 2 minutes away from ripping my hard drive out and throwing it out the window. I don’t have my debug files on me at the moment but the errors it spits out (consistently) messages like:

  • can’t find enemy fleet.
  • someerror.cpp…514, 912, something of that sort. Very consistent with the type of numbers it spits out.
  • There was one debug file that spat out something about alliance frigate missing although I can’t see how that is the case since I haven’t touched any alliance files

Yes I do have nearly ever mod imaginable installed on my computer. No, I don’t believe that some sort of module or ship design is invalid because I know how the game reacts when that is the case. I do not have problems with the standard, non-campaign portions. Is it a connectivity issue? A good portion of last night I was able to make 10 consecutive turns without problems and other times I can’t even squeeze out 1 move. Is there something wrong with the server? I would really appreciate some help.

Here are my debug files. These were from a fresh campaign after about 5 turns.

win 7 64 bit running of an ssd, 8 gigs mem no page file (not that any of this should matter).

what is this “campaign chooser.cpp 192 no enemy fleets found” nonsense? I see this over and over again. It takes me three days for a 20 node map because I keep getting slammed with huge fleets after every crash. I’ve even set up a macro for task manager because of the frequency.
