sburke Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 (edited) QB item sounds like a possible bug. Will likely need more detail, I just did a quick run asking for suggested forces and no crash. Could be map of force specific. the second item- With a population of 1,600,000 Homs is the third large city in Syria after the capital Damascus and Aleppo. It is centrally positioned in Syria and is home to Al-Baath University among other institutes. There are many restaurants and hotels. The old name for the city of Homs is "Emissa" or "Emizza", but in standard Arabic it is called "Hims", and "Homs" is its informal name.

professionalXMAZ Posted December 5, 2018 Author Share Posted December 5, 2018 w respect to the crash - it's happened three times, I can get video of it if you want... it was twice with syrian forces, once with american. different map each time 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Do you have all of the modules? Perhaps the game is automatically selecting something that's from a module you don't have, like the Syrian Zil truck or the US LMTV truck. I'm trying to think of a reason why you're getting crashes and others aren't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and what modules you have might factor into as @MikeyD suggested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Can't duplicate CTD . What is needed to chase this bug down is a screen shot of the Units screen. Did you use recommend for both sides? are you playing Human vs AI? Selecting the same map each time? Random map Selector? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) This causes a crash every time - doesn't matter if I select Marines or Army. Stock install, no mods, no added maps or campaigns.

RottenMoses Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 The game crashes if Syrian army selection is automatic in quick battle. I have the base game + marines module. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkEzra Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Identical setup as displayed. Syrian Army set auto. Game plays fine. From previous experience (numerous CM titles) I believe there are 3 general areas to trouble shoot when the QB Game is CTD: 1. The QB Map is at fault (that would be all my problem) 2. The QB TOE has a problem. (Like having Units of a non installed module showing up) 3. The Game installation had some kind of glitch So if you are able to actually get to the actual setup/start on the 3D board please save it BEFORE starting a turn. Then we might have better luck reproducing the CTD and can pass it on to BFC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, if I select them myself, everything works. But in the manual troop selection menu if I press "suggestions" button, it crashes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Just basegame + Marines? That implies the QB force picker may be trying to give you units outside of the modules you own. It might be something as simple as a Zil truck or AA pickup. That a tough one for the Beta guys to test because we've of course got all the modules installed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 My thoughts exactly - I am hoping that @GJK will report back what modules he has and things will become clear... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Same as RottenMoses - just the base game + Marines module. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Just tried it with Syrian forces selection set to "Human" and it works just fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grunt_GI Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 So I also tried it with the settings above...used SUGGESTION and everything was fine...however I done own the whole package...for Mac 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
professionalXMAZ Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 it happens reliably for a variety of game modes, maps and force selections. I'll provide more details when I get home in a couple hours 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Rosenberger Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 FWIIW: I've put in a ticket (Mac + Base + Marines) as my QB's fail / crash to desktop consistently whenever I try anything "automatic". I don't have hours for CM (sadly) so I'm constantly playing QB's - and looking forward to a fix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiminyJickers Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Yeah, this happens to me too. Must be due to not having all the modules. I only have the Base game and Marines add on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
