Crash Issue
 

Everything was going great until...

The other day, I ended my turn and during the end turn phase, my computer crashed. Now, whenever I try to end a turn, the system hangs. It usually happens during AI Thinking, resolving the first battle (turn 1), or once during the Horrors phase.

I have tried reinstalling, uninstalling and doing a clean install, and even tried installing it on my 2nd hard drive. So far, nothing I seem to do has worked.

Does anyone know a way to fix this issue? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Does it work if you try a game with just two human players?

Re: Crash Issue
 

No, it still hangs when I try to invade an independent land. However, when I did nothing, the game progressed to the next turn.

Re: Crash Issue
 

What map? What province number were you trying to invade? It might be a bug in the map

Re: Crash Issue
 

Every map I've tried: Cradle of Dominion, Glory to the Gods, Silent Seas, etc.

If it were a problem with the maps, it should have been corrected after the clean re-install. I unistalled and deleted the entire Dominions 3 folder, then re-installed.

What OS are you running?

Re: Crash Issue
 

Any mods running?
Im trying to figure out why attacking independents on any map would crash

Re: Crash Issue
 

XP. No mods.

Re: Crash Issue
 

I would recommend trying out some other hardware intensive programs that you know worked before and see if the crash reoccurs. Almost sounds like a component is on it's way out or maybe a driver was corrupted. Bad ram stick, video card, cpu, fans/overheating, etc. That is assuming that everything was working fine until the sudden crash and a fresh install of dom3 didn't fix it.

Re: Crash Issue
 

It's possibly due to someone trying to cast a spell that crashes the game. Mind Hunt can do that, it'll be fixed in the next patch. There are some other special circumstances as well, could be one of those.

Unless it's one of those "hangs on all maps on turn X" bugs.
