Game keeps crashing, Tried everything, PLEASE HELP!

IronManIan777 · April 2021

Look I tried everything up to this point and still can't play this game.

I deleted all the mods (both unsubscribed and manually deleted in the folders),
updated the driver
uninstalled and reinstalled
verified dozens of time
uninstalled steam and reinstalled it
used the betas method

I'm at the end of my rope. Please someone just help me fix this issue. I am sick of playing on a laptop when I want to play this on my strong AF desktop but can't.

Please can someone help me with this.

When you deleted the mods did you clear down the Appdata folder as well, particularly the scripts folder?

How do I that that without damaging the game or any files that shouldn't be messed with? Just deleting the preferences.script file in the Script folder?

But as far as deleting mods, I unsubbed every mod, then deleted them in the mod manager, and then I went into the steamapps>common>TWTK >Data folder and deleted all the mods on file. All PACK and PNG files that were mods.

Just deleting the preferences script or even renaming it may or may not help if there are other user scripts in that folder that have been created by mods, even if the mods are already deleted. The full way would be to rename the whole Appdata folder for the game. That way a new one will be created when you manage a clean exit from the game, and the original files can be restored if anything goes adrift plus you can then copy back any saves, replays, or anything else that you want to keep.

So I renamed the threekingdoms folder and it created a new one but it still crashed in the setup phase of the battle maybe after 15 seconds it crashed.

Try clearing your Steam download cache, then repairing your steam folder, then verifying the game cache again before restarting the game.

Is it only in pre-battle that the crashes occur?

Is there anything showing in your modified log text file?

IronManIan777 · April 2021

I deleted the Steam cache and so far did the very first battle. No crash but I'll test it again to be safe. It happens roughly around 10-20 seconds in the time when setting up troops before it crashes.

I added the mod list, those are the mods I used and it didn't crash. But as I said I'm going to test again to be sure.

IronManIan777 · April 2021

Didn't work, it crashed again almost immediately as the battle setup phase started.

It would help when troubleshooting if you completely removed all mods.

The ones titled (update.pack unknown file, update.png unknown file) seem to be the weird ones listed. Could that be something that is crashing the system? I ask because I can run all those listed mods on my laptop and no crash, it only does it on my desktop wich should not be the case unless some file was causing this that doesn't exist in the laptops database.

Also I turned them all off and unsubbed them and the game still crashes during the battles. Something has to be affecting the game to the point I cant play anymore.

BillyRuffian · April 2021

Yes it could well be those update files. Try removing them, say, to your desktop to start with then verify the game cache again and try playing.

IronManIan777 · April 2021

I also found these. Not sure what they are nor what mod they are tied to.

BillyRuffian · April 2021

I can't help with mod issues as I don't use mods myself, so I don't have a clue how they work.
