I put this in the modding bug reports section as i am running a large list of mods.

[Midnight Kitsune]

Yes most likely. HOWEVER, SS makes back ups in the save folder. Simply delete the Campaign and descriptor XML files and remove the .bak from the other two.

[StarSchulz]

I didn't know it was that easy... thank you SO much.

[Kreuzberger]

Having the same problem, maybe someone here can answer me a question:

Is there a maximum limit of ram you can give to the game? For example "-Xms150360m -Xmx150360m -Xss1024k"...as I have 16 Gb ram.

Cut it in half. I'd say 6 - 8 gigs. Also, you don't need all that much right now as very few mods are updated

[Kreuzberger]

Ok, I asked because of a weird thing.... I followed the steps from the troubleshooting thread, installed Java for 64 operating system and changed several times the ram in "vmparams" from2 to 4, 4 to 6...even 15 to 15 Gbyte ram. Then test played it with the mods Nexerlin and Dynasector plus seven factions and better sound/graphics and guess what.....the result was always!! the same. Fourth, fifth or sixth savegame gets corrupted. Always!! You can bet money on it. My guess was, that my ram was too high and not accepted by the game, running on standart ram.

So, what is going on? No matter how much ram I rammed (lol) into this game, I can´t play it seriously with mods.
Just a hint, the mod Dynasector tells you, when ram runs out...I have not even got destroyers in the game and it was already telling me, that it was 11 megabyte over the limit for a safe savegame. With 15 Gigabytes to handle it.

This is just crazy. O_o

I have to ask, what Java did you get, what are your mods, what are your system specs

The only possible issues that I can think of is that somehow the game is using your integrated card and that, combined with the amount of ships (mainly from Tyrador Safeguard) and graphics lib, the game is using your RAM as vid memory. Sadly I have no idea how to make sure SS is using your real card. BUT I will ask around! In the mean time, you might want to try turning off Graphics Lib in the settings.ini (use something like notepad++ to edit it) or removing TS from your mod list as a test

[Kreuzberger]

I have put in the Tyrador faction just the day I wrote my part to this thread. The problems happened all before that day, even without this mod. We can exclude this point.
I continued my testing and so far I have this result:

Turning off nexerelin or dynasector changes everything. Playing on the vanilla starmap seems to be stable so far. I guess, I can live with that, but I will miss the higher amount of space traffic in both mods. It was much easier to hunt and loot.  ^^

You were using a random star map? What settings?
Also, have you messed with anything to make fleets more numerous or larger? Some people do.
You should be fine doing Dyna and Nexe Corvus mode

[Kreuzberger]

"You were using a random star map? What settings?"

Only in nexerelin. 12, 8, 6 starsystems with 8-6 planets, no empty systems. In the end I tried it with the standart setting and got the same result. Dynasector has no options to change starsystems. Same result.
Only vanilla SS works so far.

"Also, have you messed with anything to make fleets more numerous or larger? Some people do."

No. I am an absolut amateur in computing. I was quite proud, that I made it through the steps of the troubleshooting guide. Never touched scripts before.

Well, I really don't know what is going on here...
Have you tried forcing SS to use your good card in the NVIDA control panel? What about turning off GraphicsLib in the settings file?
Also, the recommend ram settings is -Xms4096m -Xmx8192m to -Xms6144m -Xmx8192m. Try the lower setting first
You might also want to try to load up mods one by one. Like just Nexe and or Dyna and then slowly add to it

[Kreuzberger]

You have found my mistake.
Being an amateur, I followed the troubleshooting advice too much.
Instead of "Xmx8192m" I typed "Xmx80192", as I thought there had to be always a zero between first number and last number....refering to "Xms4096m".

I have test drived the mod nexerlin with "Xms6144m -Xmx8192m" and it works without problems.

Thank you very much!

Awesome! I'm glad I could help out. Let me know if it works
