Rome 2 Crashing On End Turn
You could read a book in the time it takes for Rome 2 to calculate AI movements between turns. Our Chris Thursten has made good progress with Game of Thrones. I, meanwhile, tend to make a cup of tea every end-turn event, and then run my empire with the urgency and recklessness of a hyper-stimulated general with a permanently full bladder. To the delight of my internal organs, CA are trying to trim those long AI thinking times down. They've posted a list of fixes made by a beta version of the second patch, which went into testing on Friday, of which 'campaign performance optimisations' and 'AI round time improvements' are the most welcome. There are also GPU optimisation tweaks listed alongside significant in-game changes to unit speed and morale-battering flank charges. The fix-list is here for your perusal.
To any and all having issues with the latest version of the trainer causing issues/crashing the game upon next turn. Just use the previous version of the trainer ( Total War Rome 2 Emperor Edition V2.3.0 Trainer +15 Build 18462 ) and it will work just fine on the newer versions of the game with no crashing. My game crashes after the end of the turn. I have tried all the fixes listed under try before posting. This is the second game where this has happened so I really do not want to have to restart. I am playing as Rome. What is the problem? Sims 3 mod packs. I did the togglefow and couldn't find any cities about to revolt. It also seems to change which ai faction it crashes on.
