Post here any bugs encounterd in 1.6

Just patched to 1.6
Cultist Ship Mission

When fortifying the underground town, the elf Wyngaal attacks and the game crashes.

Event Viewer states: Windows can not access C:Program Files\Ubisoft\HMM Collectors\data\data.pak

Bernie001, try seeing if that data.pak is really there in the folders your event viewer says. If not, maybe you can create such folders and put a copy of data.pak in that spot.

End of scenario 3 mission five. When I beat the guy guarding the last town (forgot name sorry), the game plays a cinematic and goes back to the map with a mission complete screen. After I click ok my PC seems to be loading another movie then the screen goes black and the game crashes hard. Scenario 4 does not become unlocked for me thus im stuck. My save IS from an older 1.0 game, but it seemed to work fine after patching.

Windows event viewer (xp pro sp 2) says "Faulting application h5_game.exe, version 1.1.0.21, faulting module h5_game.exe, version 1.1.0.21, fault address 0x0047dc11"

Windows XP
Intel Q6600 Core 2 Quad
2GB Corsair RAM
ATI HD2900XT 512 MB vid card

I replaced the data.pak file and everything is working as normal.

Thank you

Id also like to note that I posted the wrong event viewer. That one says the game version is 1.10, but I have an identical event viewer entry with the 1.6 version of h5_game.exe..just to clear things up

1.) Arcane Armor spell seems to be suffering from a bug. At no mastery level, it has 250+250*Power worth of shield HPs instead of 250+25*Power shield HPs. This bug is giving the shield much more HPs than even the Expert level! The bug might have also been carried over to HoF and TotE, so somone might want to check.

2.) There is also another rare bug that happens to Academy units. When an Academy unit carrying a mini-artifact is attacked and the stack loses numbers, their artifact seems to dissapear entirely. Also, when Ressurection or Raise Dead is cast on the stack while it's still alive, it loses its mini-artifacts.

3.) Arch Devils still don't play a sound effect when they are idle and you move your cursor over them.

I'm currently using HoMM V patch version 1.60.

Cultist first mission

when Agrael go to sanctuary and end his turn, turn of enemy stay infinity

I have the same problem as one stated above. At the end of campaign 6 mission 2, the game crashes completely when I defeat the last town. The movie clip plays, I see my stats from that mission, and when I hit close the screen goes black. I can still hear music, but then it starts skipping and eventually an error report pops up and the game is aborted. I tried going back to my last save and replaying the last battle, but no such luck. Same problem. I did upgrade from 1.1 to 1.6 (following each patch along the way) during this mission, but the game was playing fine and I had seen some of the bug fixes and enhancements working already. I have gotten this far in the game, and now I can no longer continue. Talk about frustrating!!

Same Here. End of Mission 2 of Dungeon Campaign. I finished it, saw the winning stats and then crashed to desktop.
Nothing in event viewer, no error msg.
Each time I tried it, same result and the next mission is still unavailable.

If you crash at the end of a mission, you have to start the mission 100% over becuase you updated and are loading off of an old save, worked great for me.

I updated to 1.6, restarted Mission 3 (The Cultist), completed the Mission and as soon as I close the stats window the game crashes.

Windows Vista?

This sounds like what everyone else is experiencing. I finish the second mission, get a cut scene display, then a page of stats, and when I click to move on to the next scenario it crashes completely to the windows report box.

When I open again it loads the last save, so I literally can't get past that crash at the end of the scenario.

Mine is XP as well.

Does something happen at this point? I mean, does Ubisoft come along and fix something?

I've got a game that I essentially can't play because it crashes at a bottleneck to the next point. It seems there are several others posting here who have the same problem arising from completion of a campaign scenario.

Tianis was right. At least it worked for me. Restarted the scenario (in my case Rebellion) from scratch and no problems moving on to the next one.

Thank you

Inferno campaign, mission 1 The Betrayal.
If my heroe entered the Sanctuary, the blue player's turn stays for ever...
I minimized the game window to connect online, then maximized the game window again and the blue player ended his turn!!!but i couldn't get my heroe out of the sanctuary
The game cursor kept changing from a hand to a red circle to a horse...just wont respond

And cheat codes don't work either!!i tried editing Autoexec.cfg in game directory, and Input.cfg in mydocuments directory...but no console!
I played the game from scratch after updating to patch 1.6

I have the European version.
Windows XP

My experience is also with the CTD after completing a campaign. The campaign started on v1.0 and ended on v1.6.

The only other bug I have encountered is that I can't navigate properly underground. When I go underground, i won't get the horse icon unless I move the camera around a bit. This happened in 1.0 and 1.6.

My specs as I posted them in another thread:

Pentium 4 2.0GHz
512MB RDRAM
ATI Radeon 9600XT 256MB AGP 4x
Creative Audigy Gamer
Windows XP Pro VL (no service pack)

I am going to attempt a log on the service to see what that tells me.

Crashes to desktop here too, started the first campaign on 1.0, patched to 1.6 later and now I can't finish that 5th scenario. After completing it the ending cinematic plays and the game crashes to desktop after that.

And yes, I restarted the scenario, still crashes.

On Win XP.
