beta 10/17 bug: XP crash start-up Pskov

When trying to start a 1066 scenario as Duchy of Pskov under XP (service pack 2, directX ver9+) the game reliably crashes requesting a report for microsoft. The bar gets to the end of the reading scenario (about 95% full) before the error occurs.

note: this also happens with Duchy of Meath

further note(second edit): also happens with D of Ulster, I suspect it has to do with locations that aren't normally starting as duchies as that seems to be the common thread here

That's because those countries don't exist anymore (at least in the latest beta), but they were not removed from playable countries.

Anybody feel like coming up with a list of such nations so they can all be scrapped in one go?

Duchies to add : Abydos.
Duchies to remove : Galich, Meath, Pskov, Smolensk, Ulster.

Counties to add : Galway, Mide, Mstislavl, Pskov, Rashka, Schwaben, Starya Russia, Suzdal, Ulaid.
Counties to remove : Brescia, Medelpad, Mayo, Orieto, Ostrava, Parma, Siena, Tuadmumu, Tuorov, Urbino, Valais, Veliky Ustug, Zeta.

I think that's it, but an error is always possible...

Reported, if you find more of these then please post here so they can be all taken care of.

Actually problem solved, no need to try to find more info. Just wait for the next beta patch.

Why don't you just save it on first day and copy across all header information into the scenario? It stops these sorts of errors.
