i will led the QA check this point, thanks alot
but can you describe your uasge of the speed key a little bit more? which game difficulty, do you use the pause key? anything may help to pinpoint that bug!
I have got it!!!! :hello: I have a save game which always bug when I launch the game. I explain: I had no problem since several days and suddently (I don't know why) it happen again... The game close suddently during I was saving. So, now, when I try to launch this game, the game close... at each time... So if you want this "save game", give me an email and I would be happy to send it.
PS: Where can I find the save games? What is the directory?

nice catch!!!
the email is dxdiag@sunflowers.de. send it in with a short description please
you can find i under xp/2k:
C:\Document and Settings\username\Application Data\Black Sea Studios\Knights Of Honor\save
the application data dir is hidden, so you have to make hidden dirs and files visible in the explorer or copy+paste it from here into the location bar.

As i have only recently bought the game (2 days ago), i had not much chance yet to pinpoint all the "look at my wallpaper" error ..just registered here today to provide some feedback regarding this problem. I mostly use allot of bowmen in my campaigns, and when i start a battle i like to speed it up a bit by setting the speed to the highest (8x). I noticed in some battles the error because of all the heavy animations when they start shooting arrows. Also on some occasions the game exited while i was running arround the map. allot of revolting or many computer armies moving at the same time on the map and speeding it up also sometimes kicked me out of the game. Hope this helps...cheers..
yea i had it to i saved a game and i tryd to loud during game it crashed i tryd it 3 times it crashed 3 times
and once i was just playing it suddenly crashed without a reason
nice catch!!!

i just expierenced the same problem with the english version for the 2nd time today. savegames (i only quicksave) aren't corrupted but it seems to me like the game watches you and tries to figure out the best time time to crash or maybe it's just murphys rule. anyways hit f2 as often as possible, at least every 2 min. there was realy no relationship to me between the different crashs. my system should be fine, don't have problems with other games.

application data, is a hidden folder, you must make em visible in the explorer settings
extras -> folder options -> "views" -> TICK show all hidden files and folders

So what about my email with the corrupt savegame? Have you got it? Does my savegame has helped you?...

Of course. Thank's a lot! :)
I have the english version with same problem. Game RANDOMLY crashes to desktop with no error message. I have a high spec PC (added details to siggy for TECH guys) and nothing else ever crashes. I have nothing but AVG running in background.
I can't retrace to same crash - it seems totally random.
Am I entitled to a refund? I am not being cheeky - it's an honest question.

i tried playing without nod32 running and it did seem to fix things, i played for a few hours with no problems at all, its very strange that nod32 did this though, i rarely if ever have a problem running a videogame, but its good to isolate the problem. It does sound like these problems are being caused by virus scanners, are gamefiles being altered on the fly maybe??autosave or something thats the only way i could see it causing a crash, its weird that my machine would completely shut down while everyone elses just crashed back to the desktop.

Interesting points. I may try to play with AVG switched off. Will post results.

No, I can't remember any restart-problem-reports on this board.
Is it possible that your computer over-heats?
If that is not the case, you may want to install different or newer drivers for your main hardware (mainboard, GFX-card, etc.). That can also improve the stability of the computer.

I'd like to add to what Angryminer says by asking whether or not you have installed some new RAM recently ? - because if there is something that can make a computer go crazy it is bad RAM - trust me i know !
