Solved - Army vs. Army Sandbox Scenario CTD

[harrified]

I've been trying some Army vs. Army sandbox battles B) while commanding a single division, my first one gave me a crash to desktop at maybe an hour and ten minutes on the battle clock, after I had been engaged with an enemy division for about 20 minutes.

My next generated battle is giving me the same CTD with the "Waterloo has stopped working" error, this time less than an hour in. While my unit hasn't seen the enemy yet there's a massive engagement going on elsewhere.

So I have an autosave from before the moment it crashes in my second game. Several times now when I try to continue from it, I'll crash anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes after load at normal timescale. I did try fastforwarding once and managed to continue on for another 40 minutes where I manually exited and tried it again at normal speed, with the same crash as before.

I've included the autosave and all the files in "...\Documents\SowWL:"

Is it only Army vs Army you get this style of crash? It is one of the most demanding types of battle.

Please try a Corps v Corps and see if it goes toes up at that level too. Thanks.

I've done a few corps sized battles already without any issues. Not a big deal if we can't expect to do larger ones but I think I was able to do them in Gettysburg alright.

Thanks, we'll take a look at those files. You should be able to play army battles. Try it with the Grog toolbar switched off.

Another battle, another crash. This time with a ridiculously massive engagement and no toolbar mod activated. At 2 hours in both sides have taken 20k casualties each. The autosave is at the 2hr mark with the crash happening just 4-6 minutes later.

I'm just curious, how much RAM do you have Harrified?

[harrified]

My specs are: Win 7 64bit, 8GB RAM, i5-4670k CPU (stock speed), Intel HD4600 IGPU (no dedicated at the moment)

I play Gettysburg just fine and really I'm curious myself to know if I'm the only one having these crashes. Has anybody else tried Army vs. Army sandbox battles?

That link didn't work for me. Please zip the log and saved game together and attach them here. Use Chrome or IE for attachments, Firefox won't work.

Your computer specs look good to me, you should be able to run army level.

Edit:
Oops, integrated graphics, that's the issue. Nevermind about my above statements, I'll leave them for others to follow. Install a good graphics card and army level should work with your rig. Can't believe you achieved army level with GB with integrated graphics.
