[1.09E] campaign crash {fixed arrow miss}

testing the campaign on my b3 system (i7 930 4ghz 12gb ddr3 2ghz ati5850 10.9 drivers win7 64bit)

ram use 1.4gb turn 969 during AI movement

crash message hidden BEHIND elemental waited 15 min, then ended elemental and found the crash message

zip had been created

added saves & dxdiags to zip.

NOTE in previous patches I have not had the campaign crash before

also noticed that ALL archery units singles,parties & squads misses every shot

It crashed in the rendering code, which is usually either an out of memory error or a driver error, so I don't think it was specifically a campaign problem.

I've got the battle guys looking into why archers are missing.  You're not using any mods, are you?

Hmmm, I was playing campaign 1.09e last night, and had the Tarth archers hitting like you would expect.

cariElf, I did have mods installed, BUT since have deleted all mods folders & the my games\elemental folder after copying my maps & units,folders to desktop,and updating to the hotfix, then started elemental again to re-create the folders,copied the maps back in, and my test sov back in to the units folder and have done a few more games on mega map with LOTS of battles and usually crashes at about turn 14, even to the point of three the brigidand archers shooting at the sov and ALL missing, the sov then using the movement limit bug with a dagger against the archers then all of the other enemy.

and here is two links to two turn 14 crashes, both admitedly after a LOT of battles per turn each time the sov was level 8

turn 14 crash 1 with saves,units & maps

turn 14 crash 2 with saves,units & maps

edit

upon further digging in my units folder I found the rangeweaponsfix.xml from 1.08 and deleted it and any NON-unit xml in the units folder, then started ANOTHER new game with the same map game settings which crashed at turn 12

turn 12 crash with all my games\elemental folders

and after deleteing the rangedweaponsfix.xml arrows ARE NOW working.
