Game has broken

Post by Zekedia222 »

I was going to load up a mod for OoB, when the game froze, and crashed. This happened with every mod I tried [Battle of Britain, Spanish Civil war, Admiral’s Alternate Arsenal, my two custom mods]. No idea what happened. Un-modded OoB still works... kinda. I suspect a full re-install of the game should work, but I figure I might as well post here. Any ideas as to what’s happening?

Even with mine?
I can't talk about the other mods, because they're fairly old and even some small changes/differences with the current game version's files can cause a mod to crash/not start properly.

I’m installing yours now to check it. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that it could be old mods. Haven’t run my two custom ones since mid November.

Yep, confirmed that it isn’t working on your mod, either.

No idea then. I'm playing with it, so it can't be a general problem with the game.
My only advice would be to try deleting stuff step-by-step from your mod to see which file causes the problem.

What's that supposed to mean? :)

Basically, when I click on Un-modded OoB, it will freeze, briefly, then load. The game will sometimes freeze momentarily when in the scenario editor or loading a game, but it will unfreeze.

A solution has been posted in another thread:

I just deleted one of the mods, now its working!
Still, it may be a tech issue, if - even when not started - having other mods in the mod-folder could break the game.
