Hmmmmm, Ok. Can someone who gets the bugs/crashes try this for me?

. Start the game.
. Start the mod.
. When you get to the main menu, use ctrl-alt-del to minimise the game.
. Go to the proscesses tab in the ctrl-alt-del task manager.
. Right click on the games processes icon and select "Set Afftinity" and de-selct one of the CPUs.
. Go back to the game and try to fight someone (or whatever set off your bug).
. If you can complete the fight, post back telling me the fix works.

Still crashes for me, off to try removing the texture pack...

YES! I just found the disk reinstalled everything, tested my theory and it has solved it for me!!! Hope this helped you guys  and thanks to Von for making such a great "BUG FREE" (almost) mod.

Hehe

Thanks Kalik. So could you describe your solution one more time in one brief message so I could post it on 1st page? Also maybe we should wait on at least one confirmation?

P.S.
About No Slavers anywhere bug... I investigated that. Extreeemly wierd! Slavers guilds should be located in each capital. There should be menu option in town menu to visit them (you saw it in alpha anyway). But it isn't there! I can't see why because noone changed anything in the code. Everything seems to be fine in module system! Very strange.

. Start your game and minimise it with ctrl-alt-del.
. Go to the processes tab of the task manager and right click on mount&blade.exe
. From the dropdown menu select "set affinity" and de-select one of the CPU.
. Play the mod and PWN!

Removing Graphical Enhancement texture pack seems to have stabilized things alot.  I'll keep playing around with it and see if the problem returns, but I got through three forest bandit fights without a hitch - is anyone else that's crashing using it or similar?

Mention this on the front page aswell - SoD4.5 is not compatible with graphical enhancement packs.

Where do you even download the graphic enhancement pack? All I have found is the link to download 4.5

I don't think it's only graphical enchancement. I always play with it (Zaro right?) and I don't imagine game without it. What could cause all this crashes is corelation of few factors:

1. A lot of new textures.
2. Old engine (let's tell the truth, it really sucks if it goes for performance)
3. High graphic settings. Just lower them and see if it helps.

I play with Zaro enchancement and it works perfect!

I'm pretty sure it's this one, but I just crashed again... but it took alot longer, so I guess it's something.  Maybe you're right about the too many texture thing.  I'll try reducing my settings next.

Edit: And ran into the -4000000 denirs bug on a new game that someone else mentioned earlier.
Edit: fixed the link

I can't find chief clan Urubuy anywhere. I don't think he's on the map. I am trying to duel him for a lady but it says he's close to Unuzdaq and I have been looking for a long time.

This is a bug I think because I can't see the lord on the map at all.

RunTime error when i try save game ,not every time

AMD Phenom x4 9850
ATI 3870 x2
Memory 4Gb

Maybe you're right about the too many texture thing.  I'll try reducing my settings next.

Just had a large forest bandit battle, around 100.  Was enough to trigger enemy reinforcements and completed the battle with no crash.  Seems to have made a large difference.

So to summarize what seems to be working for me: Removing texture pack, reducing texture detail to 50% from 100%, grass density to 10% from 30%, and turned off a few of the toggles (I'll keep tweaking to see if I can find the sweet spot in the settings).  I'm at around 133% performance now.

Thanks everyone.

I'm wondering if the new map is causing these problems.  I never had them when testing things on old map.  Now I cannot get the game to run long enough to test anything. 

I'm thinking this new map may be causing problems with all the extra forests.  It looks nice, but if it is not usable...

This exact method didn't worked for me but you are probably right there is some kind of strange quad core issue.
I was playing with turbo boost disabled so far (an intel i5/i7 feature supposed to give all the power to one processor), as it created problems in another application I use, and M&B don't need a supercomputer anyway.
After trying your method, I've remembered this, and re-enabled the boost, I tested some battles and no longer have reinforcement crashes.

Not sure what is going on here, but when I enter the garrison screen it says that I'm garrisoning like 818/10 troops daily... I keep adjusting the level, but it keeps going back up, and I am unable to grow my population because of it. Is it a bug or am i not understanding what is going on?

Deffinetly a bug. Thanks for report!

 

[DPsoul]

Hmm, not sure if this was mentioned already but when you try to switch the recruitment method from Homeland Units to Calradian Units It doesn't work.

I have the full pack of crash mr. newton.dll making an appcrashing entrance mid fight, C++ runs wild and RGL is popping up before even entering the battle screen

Well the first post I tried different settings but Damocles doesn't want me to do this

Unabel to open texture file Module\Sord of ~\textures\pic retreat.dds

I got a similar one.

Praven shows as garrisoning 200 troops a day, but it doesn't actually garrison anybody at all.
This is with one trainer.

Another script error, if these aren't useful, just let me know and I'll stop.  On the bright side I'm actually able to play without the crashing now, so I'm able to get into the meat of the mod a little more
