Empire: Total War Message Board  

^^^agreed, this game has sooo much potential to be great but CA and Sega are making it worse. the trainer keeps crashing my game. The game keeps crashing for the most dumb reasons.

CA and Sega should just hand the materials to mod out to the modding community and let them fix it....like they always have done!

please PWizard or Cal fix this trainer for us)
oh and keep up the good work!!

It's crashing your game when you click on buildings/ships etc, cause you used the trainer before the new patch, and most likely saved your game with units queued for production etc, like the option for 1 turn recruitment gets saved with a game save wether the trainer is running or not, so with the new patch it's confusing it and crashing, happened last patch too, so you have to either make a new campaign and play normally, or wait for the next trainer and still probably have to make a new campaign, I had to last time lol

Just to show how much I liked their work I bought the lifetime membership. I must say I'm a bit impressed whit the time frame whit in Pwiz & Co is putting the new trainers up.

And I can only agree whit danpe223: If you have cheated before the patch. And then load that game, then some of the stored "cheating" will still be in the saved game, like research for instance.

The only cheating I can see there don't make the game crash is if you memory hack the amount of gold you have .. whit tsearch, artmoney or some other memory hacking program.
For me it haven't made the game crash yet.

But I have the same problems whit ships and towns, they get my game to crash. But will try to start a new game and see how it will go.
If the game keep crashing then its the game there is the problem .. if it don't crash .. well then its the "cheating" in the saved games there is the problem.

It worked just fine for me after the first patch, didn't have any problems with it crashing like that. I was able to go a few more turns until I clicked on one of my two fleets that crash the game. I think it's just a glitch concerning certain coordinates as far as the fleets are concerned. The cities and armies I could see where the cheat would have affected it. Also after todays patch the game seems to run slower, take more time to load, and a bit choppier.

no change in game performance for me, not that I notice atleast.

I have the same problem. Whenever I play as Great Britain, when I try to select Southampton, or any naval units created there, the game hangs and/or crashes. I think the real issue, is that Sega shouldn't have released this game yet. It clearly needs A LOT of de-bugging.

alls i can say is that i very much dislike steam lol i didnt like it when i played counter-strike and i really dont like it now tried to stop the new patch paused as fast as i could put in offline oh cant run game till its patched POS!
