CTD_Camp_Series_Nam_AlbanyLZ

[S15]

Hi Jason and Berto,
was playing the By the Belt - Battle fo Landing Zone Albany, and have had ctd on 3 occasions. All occur on turn 6 I believe for me ( possibly 5). I have troops in 41,23 attacking VC in coordinates 41,22 when it crashes. Each time, same exact ctd.
Not sure if it is on my end, but at least it has been reproducing itself ( the ctd) consistently. Files in attachment.

Sorry for the trouble.

When this happens, is it perhaps preceded by an "Ambush!" popup?

Please do me some favors.

• Empty your Logs folder.
• Load up your save file.
• Before you do anything else, do a Ctrl+Alt+3. You should see a dialog box like the one attached.
• Replicate the CTD.
• Immediately zip up the contents of the Logs folder and post it here.

If you have the time, you might try a second experiment, like the above except this second time do a Ctrl+Alt+5. This will slow down game play drastically, as logging will be much more verbose. Any zip'ed Logs folder you attach for this second experiment will be much larger than the first.

In the meantime, I will try to replicate the CTD here. Thus far, no success.

Also, see if any of this rings a bell:

That was from an earlier version in spring of last year.

Are you direct firing?

If so, which units?

Are you assaulting?

If so, which units?

I'm trying to replicate this, but no luck yet.

In addition to the above requests for engine.log specimens at heightened log levels L3 & L5, if you would please also: make a save file before each assault attempt. If it then CTDs, we have in the save file a reliable setup for recreating the CTD.

Hi Berto,

yes indeed the Ambush popup does show. I meant to add that to my initial bug report- sorry for the omission.
Will see if I can get to the other items and instructions you sent. Hopefully you can get the bug to repro in the meantime.

Both Jason and I tried and tried and ... but were unable to replicate the CTD. Hence our need for you to supply a specimen save file that sets up a situation to reliably trigger the crash.

The verbose engine.log files are helpful as an alternative path to seeking out the bug.
