Imperial Civil War Tech Support / Re: Crash that happens often and sometimes deletes saves
« on: July 02, 2017, 01:10:49 PM »
I got some more information that could either help this issue or make it more complicated. I few times when I tried to save, a message pops up that says "FAILED TO SAVE GAME. CHECK AVAILABLE DISK SPACE" and the save file disappears. This has happened about 5 time for me and this seems to be related to the whole crash. The game still works after this message pops up however saving doesn't work until the game is reset. What I don't understand is how I have plenty of space on my PC. In the picture, I had about 70GB of free space on my PC. This has only happened in Thrawn's revenge ICW 2.1 and 2.15. In the picture, I was playing as the New Republic in the GC art of war and this message appeared about 2-3 times in about 30 in game weeks.

I have been doing some testing and the majority of crashes happen when manually saving. I have been keeping track of things that are happening in the GC when crashes happen in a spreadsheet which I will post when I get more crashes.

Empire at War and Forces of Corruption / Re: Empire at War FoC help
« on: June 05, 2017, 05:12:37 PM »
I have been messing around with settings and I turned off running as admin through compatibility mode. This seems to make FoC launch just fine from the steam library when right clicking the game or launching the game then selecting FoC. I have no idea why running the game as an admin suddenly stopped FoC from working because it has always worked in the past. Thank you for you help anyways.

Empire at War and Forces of Corruption / Empire at War FoC help
« on: June 05, 2017, 02:39:00 PM »
I need some help with my empire at war FoC game. I somehow broke FoC on my computer. I made a steam post about this issue and so far I have not been able to fix it. I wanted to ask the Thrawn's revenge community for help. I'll start off this thread with coping everything from my steam post to explain my issue.

Original post: "I have been playing the game for a while without any issues launching the game. I took about a two day break from the game and when I got back, force of corruptions will not load. I reinstalled the game which didn't help. What happens is after I select forces of corruption in the menu that pops up when launching the game, "running" appears next to the game title in my steam library and then syncing. Then syncing disappears and nothing happens after that. I can launch the game without FoC just fine in steam and using the .exe. Also, using the FoC .exe brings me to the base game without the expansion. I'm using no mods or any altering in the game files. I have restarted steam and my computer multiple times and I tried running steam as an admin."

"I made progress... I think. Now when I launch FoC, Eaw without the expansion launches. I have uninstalled the game many times and reinstalled and made sure that all game files where deleted."

"Also the program FoC is not listed under installed programs on the computer but Empire at War gold pack is."

I have been trying to use my EaW disk as well but it is not letting me install the game and the launcher says the game can be uninstalled. Trying to uninstall the game through the disk launcher did do anything so I deleted all of the files in the Lucusarts folder for empire at war and uninstall the program through the control panel. Currently, launching empire at war from steam brings me to empire at war without the expansion pack even when selecting the expansion pack. I know this isn't related to thrawns revenge but there isn't very many communities where empire at war is popular.

I'm starting to remember more about the crashes. They happen less often in smaller GCs. This could be because they are shorter than the GCs like art of war. Also I have never had a crash in a skirmish but I have never saved during a skirmish.

To be honest, the hardest part for me is keeping cool. It is easy to get nervous in these types of situations. I heard that confidence is important when it comes to girls and that faking confidence leads to actual confidence.

I just found out that I have steam cloud enabled for the game and it is doing used. I'm going to see if disabling it will change anything.

I have no other mods installed when I was playing 2.2 demo and I didn't install 2.15. When installing 2.2, I uninstalled EaW and reinstalled it from steam. When the games crashes when manually saving, my cursor goes to the desktop loading cursor during the saving. This sometimes leads to the save file disappearing. Also, the crash happens when saving inside a battle or in the galaxy view. The other time the game crashes is before and after a battle which is when the game auto saves. The reason why I think the auto save is causing the game to crash is because sometimes the auto save file disappears. This never happens when playing other mods or vanilla. Usually when the game crashes when saving, there is nothing special going on in the GC. It happens in all factions however I am now remembering that it happens more frequently when playing the imperial remnants in the big, multi era GCs in 2.15. When playing the imperial remnants, the crash happened about every 30 minutes. The crash did happen less playing other factions such as the NR. I'm going to start new games in 2.2 and 2.15 and just save several times to see if just saving causes crashes or where I save causes crashes.

I double checked and I know I installed 2.2 demo correctly. Also, this was done in an unaltered version of the game. This crash happens on average every 1.5 hours. I know I have plenty of memory on my computer for storage isn't an issue. I did set the .exe of forces of corruption to run as an admin however that didn't help. I also tried running steam as an admin. The crash does make a file named _Exept like the one I posted earlier. All of the above information applied to both ICW 2.1 with and without the patch and 2.2 demo.

TFW you are playing 2.2 and create a fleet big enough to steam roll the galaxy in order to kill Wedge but you find out he is in a fighter

Disregard the part about the crash happening in other mods. I been playing 25 hours in two other mods and I have not experienced any crashing. The exception crash I got was only in a very specific situation with happened again. I reinstalled the game and started playing 2.2 demo and I still got the same exception crash as I did in 1.5. I know the crash happens pretty much always then the game saves. This includes manual saving and auto save. This is probably why the save files disappear.

After uninstalling the game, I found this file in the EaW Corruptions folder. It may be useful because the error is caused by an "exception".

So this crash happens with other mods as well. I reinstalled EaW and then installed rise of Mandalorians. I still get the exception! error after playing awhile. Earlier I played vanilla for about 4.6 hours straight and got no errors. When installing the ram fix from lucus arts, I am not able to install the FoC fix however I can install the standard empire at war fix.

I think I found a fix. Even though I have the steam version of the game, the latest patch for vanilla EaW wasn't installed. I installed one of the updates and so far I haven't had any crashes. I'll reply to this thread if the crashes continue however it appears that they have stopped.

Fallout NV had much more DLC content while 4 DLCs where very disappointing.

What is your play time on EAW? Mine currently is 125 hours but I'm taking a break. Only about 2 hours of that is without thrawn's revenge.
