Can not load Gettysburg 3 Days in 7 Hours... please help

Post by GFab »

Hi all.

I am having an issue loading the scenario for Gettysburg 3 Days in 7 Hours. From what I see it loads up to GFX Wheel and then the error occurs.

I have SowGB1.2 installed. Not sure if that is the latest correct patch.

I am able to play the East and South Calvary field scenarios with no problems. And I can play all the other original scenarios.

I'm not sure what you would need to know so please let me know and I will provide it. Between Windows 7 and SowGB folder layouts I don't know where to look sometimes.

Thanks
GFab

What is the error you are receiving? Also can you post the contents of your sowgb.log file. The file is found in your Work folder.

Will other mods load and play? Might be where you have SOW installed, a Win7 glitch.

Little Powell - As the scenario is loading it gets to the loading GFX wheel and then I get a pop up that says "Scouge of War - Gettysburg has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution". It does not find any and says it will notify me when it does.


RedBugler - Yes, all my other mods load and play. The game is installed on my "c" drive under NorbSoftDev. It is not under my Program files folder or my Program Files (x86) folder.


This is the contents of my sowgb.log file. It seems that it can not find certain sprites.

Definitely conflicting mods, try GB 3Days alone at first, then one by one, test each, add additional mods...your must haves first.

Well that's what it is.
One of the mods is conflicting with this one.
Now to find out which one.

Thanks for your help.
Looking forward to playing this scenario.

Hi, yes it is a great mod from TC2M game- be sure you have all the latest patches- and check all your mods for conflicts- the toolbar mod causes crashes- I had problems with the airburst mod v2- I haven't used it at all - gl :P

Hmmm, can't find the "airburst mod v2-", otherwise, I'd look into the conflicts. Should be just an effects.csv adjustment, which would not conflict...but I don't have enough info without the mod.
