game crashes on last mission

[stig]

hello all. i'm having major grief with mission 5 on the academy campain. the game keeps crashing before i finish the second battle. i have downloaded patch 1.4 can anyone help. please. been battling this game for months now and want to finish it.

Does it crash when a creature is unsummoned from the battle field? If so, it means it's the gating crash bug. Don't worry, it has been fixed in 1.41; I suggest you download and install it right away.

If you still can't finish it even with 1.41, please include more information about the crash.

hello there, is there a later patch after 1.4" i have already downloaded and installed 1.4. the game does seem to crash when beasties are unsummoned

[Apocalypse]

Yes, there is a minor one (1.41) that solves this problem. Look here, you'll find several links for it in the first thread.

I also have encountered this problem. However, the game does not crash during usummoning, but during gating. The bug is 100% repeatable. During a siege of Biara's fortress the game crashes when the first Archdevils gate after I fly behind castle walls with my emerald dragons in their first move and kill Nightmares (it's the very start of the battle). As soon as I decided to try to pass the battle another way (not to fly behind walls before Archdevils gate), everything went OK.
BTW: I also have version 1.4, but probably without that additional 0.01.
