'True Ground SR1' - Scenarios & OOBs

Post by RebBugler »

Hey Jolly

Just saw your last post.  Well, if that mod is the crash culpret, then it didn't affect my play-testing because I had it enabled as GB1_01 was being developed and finalized.  Are you suspecting this as the issue because you disabled your terrain mod and played GB1_01 without crashing?

Exactly Reb, I left it running for about 30 mins without any problems - needs more playing from me though to be confident that it won't crash randomly.

I'll keep you informed.

I'm sorry about the previous post, I can't delete it.
I've no idea how that happened - it looks like the jpg's image structure is showing, instead of the image itself !

Could someone get rid of it? It's a damn large annoying thing!

Thanks,

David (jolly)

Hey Reb,
I didn't have any issues with your lastest scenario, no crashes.
I started it around 8:30 this morning, played for about 45 minutes, had to go out for awhile so I let it run.
I got back around 45 minuters later and it was still running.
I just ended it a few minutes ago at 12:30...
I also had the TerrainMod running along with my anti virus programs - WebRoot Secure and Malwarebytes Premium both active and no crashes.
My order of mods in the following order activated to play scenario:

4K Packed Artillery,Cavalry,et al
Bugles & Flags XIX
BloodBath VI
TC2M SOW Infantry Mod
True Ground' - Devil's Den Map - The Big Picture
True Ground SR1
True Ground Maps - Gettysburg - The Big Picture
TC2M SOW Infantry SR1


Not sure why Jolly is having crashes...
Great scenario Reb..
Keep them coming..

Hey Jolly,
Do you have any mods activated below these SR1 mods that you show ?
If so, try moving these SR1 mods to the bottom of your list.
See page one of this thread entry #13 and #14 as it shows the way Reb has his mods setup.
I set mine up the same way at the bottom like him.
Check it out and give it a try if yours is different.
Hope this helps you out..

Thanks so much Chamberlain, Jolly should be fixed now, at least priority wise.

The main problem I see with Jolly's order of mods is that 'True Ground SR1' MUST be lower than 'True Ground Maps', otherwise many issues.  The other issue related to possible crashes is the inclusion of the 'Turning Point Gettysburg' map mod.  Not sure why it's enabled, for it's not at all connected to SR1 scenario play.

Anyway, let's hope the fixed priority lineup cures Jolly's crashes, SR1's #1 play-tester!

Thanks both of you. I;m still trying.
The Devil's Den map had no problems. but I notice there is True Ground' - Devil's Den Map - The Big Picture - do I need this? I've tried to find it in the forum with no luck.

I'm off to try Reb's new suggestions. Thanks again.

'True Ground - Devil's Den Map - The Big Picture' has been overwritten and replaced by 'True Ground Maps - Gettysburg - The Big Picture'.  This new version contains the 'True Ground' version of 'Turning Point Gettysburg'.
