Hello there! Firstly, love the modded version of the game. Thanks so, so much for all your hard work. For some reason when there's more than 1 trade a turn the game is crashing to desktop? I'm using the latest version of GS5 (downloaded from your page a week ago. Win 7). Any idea what's going on? Thank you! Did you install the PIC5R3? Yup. Again, I installed the PIC5R3 direct from your site, too. The game I was playing on was a map called Van Lezing and that came from your excellent site as well. the only thing i've done which might conflict with your instructions (I THINK) is use an .iso file to install. I own a copy of LOM but not LOMSE. any ideas, buddy? thanks for your time. |

GS5 mods are mods for LOMSE. Special Edition differs severely in its core, so that there is no doubt that this is the reason of all your problems. You might want to download LOMSE.  |

I think I misunderstand. Isn't LOMSE an acronym of Lords Of Magic Special Edition? Are we not talking about the same thing? |

It sounds like installation trouble, be it installation of the mod or the game itself. hello again. a couple of days ago I completely uninstalled the game, then did a clean and unpatched install. i downloaded the latest PIC5V3 and GS5R3, using the .bat to install them. after a day of playing, it started again. it was after turn 40ish - when i guess the game gets more complicated and unstable. the game then it kicks me to desktop after about 5 mins of playing. |

Ok. So you've done a clean install. This is good to know to diagnose the issue.
When you encounter this problem, is this on a complete play without closing the game?
If yes, save the game, close LOMSE completely, then start LOMSE and reload the game. Then tell me, does the issue still stand exactly as you've reported it?

It varies tbh, but more often than not it'll crash within a few mins or a couple of turns. 1 intresting thing is looking at the windows error log details says that the error is with lomse.exe and that the application version is still only 3.0.0.1. any ideas?
the vanilla install works fine and is perfectly stable before adding the gs5 mod. thanks again.

I really can't account for the problem you're having if it's between windows and the game. Do you have a save file you can post? |

It sounds like installation trouble, be it installation of the mod or the game itself. Sure thing! I've uploaded a save to: www.filedropper.com/uploadsavefor example, in this game, if I send my Life army into the building they're right next to (in the order territory), autocalc, then move into another building the game'll crash. the other Life army (in the fire territory) will crash if a fire army comes up to parlay. all sorts of stuff like that, really. the game seems to become unstable then close. i'd love to know what you think! thank you so much |

Could you please restate the steps you take and perhaps numerically order them so I can easily follow each step?

Could you please restate the steps you take and perhaps numerically order them so I can easily follow each step? Sure thing! 1) For example, there's one large Life army in the territory of Order. 2) The army's right next to a small building (I think it's a brewery). 3) Attack it and Autocalc the outcome. 4) then if I move to another building (for example the small dwelling to the right) in the same turn, the game will boot me to the desktop. It's just general unstability, too. The other large Life army (with the mage lord) in the territory of Fire causing a crash as well. The lord of Fire is around there somewhere. If he comes over to parlay - the game will boot me just before the Life turn. It just seems like most of the interactions with other faiths or autocalcs will lead to a crash. I hope that helps! Thank you. |

Also, I cannot seem to download the file. Yup, it was a modded game from the start. The save is from a modded game. Ummm, not sure why you can't DL the save? I just checked the link and it works for me. Just click the "Download This File" button. www.filedropper.com/uploadsaveAll the best. Thank you. |

You have pixies on your army. It's accumulated on some of your units to the point where they have less than 1 Sight Radius.
Did you start the game with an older version of the mod?

Hello again, There are 2 pixies, but they're free-roaming (as in not part of any army). They MAY have joined with an army at some point. Do you think that it's a bug where the army retained the 1 sight radius? (Just to confirm, when I'm on about an 'army' its a group '3 heroes 9 units'. (not sure what the official term is :-) )) An the game started with the GS5R3 and current PIC5R3, too. I've never had an older version on my computer. I've started a new game on a different map, with a fresh install. I'll see how it goes, but I didn't have problems with THIS save file until like turn 40+. (I also tried loading this save on the fresh install, and the same problems happen.) thank you. |

Dispel pixies from your armies. The game has become bugged as a result of repeated pixies effects.
I'll have to further investigate why this is happening and see how I can make a fix.

I have the game on now and I dismissed both brownies. (It is brownies we're talking about, hey?) I then let the game play a turn, then tried the same 'autocalc / move' thing as before and the game crashed the same way. i'll persevere with the new game. it's on a new map, so maybe it was the map that was bogus? who knows. Thank you for your time and advice! |
