Matrix Games Forums

Is the new matrix version fully compatible with custom scenarios created for the old version?

I've been trying out an old scenario "Operation Sealion by Jason Petho" version 2.01

I'm playing as allied and it keeps crashing on computer axis turn 6 with

Application Error : The instruction at "0x5f4012a1" referenced memory at "0x00000004". The memory could not be "read".

Is this a program bug or likely to be a bug with the scenario (or a corrupted save)?

I recall having out of memory problems the first time I played the campaign series (years ago)on my old pentium, but surely this shouldn;t be an issue with modern computers.


Thanks

Mike

First off, thanks for playing an old scenario of mine!

Secondly, you cound find the final version of the scenario here:

Thirdly, it is best played vs a human opponent.

And lastly, regarding the problem. Good question, no, you shouldn't be having any problems with it. Could be a corrupted save file or even scenario file.

Try using the newest version of the scenario and see if it does the same thing?

Hope that helps
Take care and good luck

Tried the newer version, started a new game against axis AI. It crashed at the end of turn 6 again with the same message
Even fiddled with the AI setting and skipped past turn 6 and it still crashed on the next turn the AI played.
v.strange, does the program have any sort of logging functions so the actual error can be seen?

Oh well plenty of other scenarios to play!

Very bizarre. I will check tonight on my install.

Interesting. Can we run all of these 'old' scenarios in the new JT Campaign Series?

Theoretically, yes.

Well, I tried a few times to let the AI play through turn 6. It appears to get most of the way there, and then it crashes when it is trying to move a boat of some sort out of LOS. Giving the same error message as above.

Any idea anyone?

Bizarre.
