it seems however, as the first of your errors is due to the export map code tries to axport som C3C only values from your map, and if you don't have C3C that will probably crash on you with the error you got.

To track this error I would need to see your session log for the save process, to see where it fails.

I've found the reason for the error. Itr's an issue with v1.11.x for vanilla Civ3 only. I'll have it fixed in the next version.

I apparently was a bit uncler. What I meant is that I am using the latest version of your program (I think). I could not find the version of my Civ3 but the publishers website (www.civ3.com) do not have any patches for this game so presumably it is the latest version.

Thanks!

In the bottom left corner of the main screen of Civ3 there is a version number.
1.07f is the original release of Civ3.
1.29f is the most recent version prior to any expansion pack.

Thanks. Was looking in all the wrong places (like in the readme) for version number, and of course mine was outdated (1.07f). Downloading the patch for the current version and hope that solves the problem.

Started a new game (after upgrade) and tried to save the unmodified game from the multitool and got the message:
Error path/file access error (75) in c3mt;; streambuffer.cis line 833.

Trying to export maps still freezes the program but that I was warned for and expected.

Hi Gramphos,

Big thanks and great work for making this excellent tool for Civ3 fans

I just tried using the tech tree builder but when I tried to load a scenario, it crashed with this error: "Runtime error 5: Invalid call or argument". I'm using version 1.11.7 and C3C v1.22

I'll include the log file with this message. Is this error due to the tech tree builder not yet completely supporting C3C files? I was trying to look at the WWII conquest.

Cheers,
Alf928

I get multiple errors with the new version 1.11.7. (Didn't have these problems with 1.11.6)

Playing PTW version, patched to 1.29 on an XP sp2 machine.

When loading a saved game in the editor it says:

"LinkedScenario System - Error
Error - Invalid Property Value (380) in C3MT ::frmSaveEdit.frm line 2951"

If you click ignore it says:

"LinkedScenario System - Error
Error - Invalid Property Value (381) in C3MT ::frmSaveEdit.frm line 2968"

Clicking on abort gives the message:

"LinkedScenario System - Error
Error: (0) in ::frmSaveEdit.frm line 0"

It then appears to load the save game (if you click abort again.)

In at least one attempt of use it crashed, I didn't cath the error message but attached is the log.

*edit* Oh, and it may appear to allow you to add units and save properly, but actually loading the edited save game causes and I/O error in Civ, and strangeness that includes my capital disappearing.

Now I have to figure out to find the previous version so I can actually use it.


*edit part Deux* Please ignore that fact that I magically jump ahead to version 1.11.8. It's 1.11.7 that I'm having trouble with.

Hi,
one addition: I found out in which case the editor crashes for sure... if I edit a city without improvements and add one that didn't exist before and then click to choose another city, it certainly crashes. I can save and reopen that save though and then select another city, in that case it'll be o.k.
Btw, I guess units with red letters designated artificially created units?

In the CT icons for units are only used vanilla varsion, and nort scenario specific. That mean that icons will not load for units added after the original release.

Anyway...

Civilization III Play the world contains proper informations. The good install_path.

I also have a folder [Inforgrams] alone containing a folder Civ3PTW and it is empty. I have added into it a keyreg Install_Path with the exact path and still it doesn't work. When I open the C3MT, it points to the Civ3 and not Civ3PTW and when I open a Civ3PTW file, it says "NOT A CIV3 TYPE".

followed by a sbuscript error bla bla bla...

Can you help me with this?

Getting errors while loading saves and editing Filters. I was able to capture 2 session logs, before they were deleted, with my Total (orginally Windows) Commander Program running at same time (copied to separete folder), before fully exiting program.

I hope that will help figure out what is wrong. I also edited the session 8 file, with comments. Sometimes, you get different errors, depending on whether you hit Abort or Ignore.

I also have newer versions of the 3 OCX files, so I'm including them in a follow up post, incase that might be part of the problem.

The Zip file contains 3 C3C 1.22 SP save files, all same game. One saved at start, one at 330BC and one created by C3MT. Also has the 2 session Logs.

hmmm! I found out myself the error I think... maybe! There was an \ at the bottom of the path string into the registry. I removed it and it works a bit better. The default directory is the good one and I can load and save some savefiles.

However, I do have errors when I do an export map or when I do some filters either in city screen or unit screen.

I have the same errors with version 1-11-5, 1-11-6 and 1-11-7. However, I have no errors when I use version 1-10.

Again, maybe there is something else in my registry that is missing or miss spelled but, I can't see.

The error msg are:

I'll probably never release the source for this tool. It countains too mush information on the save file format. It would make it possible for a new era of cheaters to rise, bot in SP tournaments and MP.

If I stop developing this tool it will just stay dead unless I find someone trustworthy to pass the source on to.

	strange error with C3MT Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I have a new pc and have been wanting to use the C3MT on it but I can't...well not the feature I'm wanting to use the most anyway. Now C3MT worked fine on my other pc.

I'm using the Save Game Editor. When I load a saved game I get an error box saying this;



LinkedScenario System - Error

Error: Invalid property array index (381) in C3MT::frmSaveEdit.frm Line 2968

Abort - Retry - Ignore
----------------------------------------------------------
It keeps coming back if I click anything other than Abort. Once I click Abort I get a new error window saying this;

LinkedScenario System - Error

Error: (0) in ::frmSaveEdit.frm Line 0

Abort - Retry - Ignore
----------------------------------------------------------

When I click Abort it takes me to the Save Game Editor like it should. The only thing I see that isn't working is the area for Unit Statistics (global). And that's what I'm wanting to use the most.

Please help. If this is discussed on a forum already and I missed, I am sorry. I'm new to this site. I used cntrl F to search thru threads before posting.

i've seen this some times when using filters. happens in several games.
however, it works if you first time use "retry" then later "ignore" it works without crashing

No it gives me the errors when I first load a saved game into the SG Editor. I can only get rid of the error box by clicking Abort. Though, if I click on anything under the Filters then it gives me the error boxes that go away by clicking Retry and then Ignore like you suggested.

What I'm after is the Unit Statistics (global) section so I can increase movement rate and stuff for the unit types. Right now it's not allowing me to even click on that section.

Something I thought of...my old pc uses Windows XP and my new one uses Windows XP Media Edition. Could this be the problem?

Hi Gramphos,

I've installed 1.11.7 and got some errors with the SGE when reading SAV files from CivIII 1.29f (german Win98SE). The error messages appear in german and translate to something like:

Invalid index for property (381) in C3MT::frmSaveEdit.frm Line 2968

(probably the same as Nitronic get)

I have installed exactly the Comct232 CAB that you recommended earlier in this thread but left the other OCX files untouched (since mine are newer and I don't want to break anything in my system).

However, the files do load eventually but the modified SAV files are corrupt i.e., Civ refuses to open them. Anything I can do about it?

Thanks, -DocBrown
