small problem (steps to reproduce):

- Start Scenario No. 2, 3, 4, 7 or 8 as Eastern Entente
- open List of Forces (F1)
- change list to units (leftmost button)
- search for I Corps or V Corps of Montenegro Army
- sometimes crash, sometimes not...

maybe some faction image is missing.... my guess.

anyhow, old game and all - i don't think anyone will fix this...

but if you or someone knows how to fix or name of missing image...

nevertheless, great game! thank you ageod-team!

thanks for reading...

The issue is that Montenegro faction does not exist and cannot be used as a subfaction for Eastern Entente.
Vukotic is the only model/unit using the MON FactionTag.

One solution is to replace MON FactionTag by SER FactionTag in both model (#2510) and unit (#2307) files.
Then delete the .cached files in both models and units folders and restart the game.

Tested on my side and it works.


Let us know if it helps.

works on my side as well. all scenarios with Montenegro Army feel much more stable.

no more errors in my log file, nice!

great help! thanks a lot!

edit: attached this fix as modded files for anyone willing to change the MON faction to SER - enjoy!

also, please read this thread that you know why you want to edit these two files and don't forget to refresh the cached model and unit files.
