(Crash) Hitting "Main Menu" during Battle

[Samseng Yik]

Minor issue.
The game will always crash (but not CTD) when I hit "Main Menu" during Battle.
The game itself will freeze, when I ALT+TAB. I saw a Windows message box said
"Oops ! Seems like ......" when I click OK the game will close.

Thanks, we'll look into it :)

What? This issue didn't reported by others? In this case will show my spec : -
- Windows 8.1 64 bit
- Nvidia driver latest (GTX 560)
- 7 years old Core 2 Duo Processor (Intel E6750)

This is the first time I've heard of it.

I also have this bug. Just got game. 7 64 bit gtx 570 i7950

Thought it was known already so I never said anything about it but yeah, it happens everytime I try to get back to main menu during a battle too.

1 good solution is add "Load Game" function at battle menu.
People usually want load game due to situation go down hill.
But not able to found the "Load Game" button.
Programming and Engine wise, I am not sure is this can be done or not

Same thing happening to me as well. Makes savescumming a tiny bit tedious :D

Win 7 x64, Core 2 Duo E6550, GTX 550 Ti, 4 gigs of RAM

Not sure we'll be able to add this in. Meanwhile, you can always use the Retreat button to stop the battle and then load a savegame when you get back to the world map (a little more annoying because you have to sit through two loading screens, I know, but better than having to wait for the battle to be lost).

My game also crashes after trying to get to main menu from battle

Good enough for me, but just to clarify: doesn't the game do an autosave after certain battles?

[Jonas]

No, we only ever autosave when you make camp.

Just to clarify, the actual problem causing the crash will hopefully get fixed. This is just a work-around until then.

[Samseng Yik]

This means autosave actually didn't happen each turn, but only happen when we make camp?

[Jonas]

That is correct. This is for three reasons: 1) camping is kind of a natural save point, 2) it would be too easy if it autosaved during combat, 3) you make camp really damn often anyway.

[Samseng Yik]

>_<, I am expecting the developer reply like this.
"You can only end turn when you're camping, this means autosave is still doing it every turn."
