Shogun 2: Total War Message Board  

Regarding the Mega Trainer (build 3272.0), Unlimited Movement, Massive Gold, F....

Can't get the trainer to work ingame. Can get it activated but the commands don't do anything. The audio for them plays but no effect actually occurs.

Have Windows 7 64 bit. Tried running in compatibility mode, running as admin, disabling antivirus/firewall/windows defender, changing the hotkeys, etc.

Not sure what else to do. Now I'm crashing to desktop when I load a savegame with the trainer enabled (not without it enabled).

Are you sure you have the correct version of the game which matches the one on the trainer?

Are you only using the trainer on Single Player?

Yes, only single player and 3272. Just crashes right away after the savegame loading screen.

Start trainer > start game > activate with F1 on menu and hear confirmation, attempt to load or start a new game > crashes immediately after loading.

The crash message I get from Windows is:

Faulting application name: Shogun2.exe, version: 1.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4d8b4377
Faulting module name: Shogun2.dll, version: 1.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4d8b42b3
Exception code: 0xc0000096
Fault offset: 0x0124d079
Faulting process id: 0x364
Faulting application start time: 0x01cbef471dcffe8d
Faulting application path: c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\total war shogun 2\Shogun2.exe
Faulting module path: c:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\total war shogun 2\Shogun2.dll

and a another following:

Windows cannot access the file for one of the following reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or the disk is missing. Windows closed the program Total War: SHOGUN 2 because of this error.


Antivirus off, UAC off, Windows firewall off, windows defender off

Try this, load the savegame and then pause the game when your in and press F1.

Don't activate the trainer and/or load your options before hand.

I have Windows 7 64-bit and cannot get the trainer to work either.

Mine crashes similar to yours, but not all the time.

If I find out why this happens I will let you know (I've not had much help from anyone as of yet).

Alright, I tried that and don't crash but the trainer still doesn't have any effect. Rebound keys in game so that they aren't using the numpad, but still only just hear the activated sound.

Has to be a difference in the .exe file then. Thats why its crashing when you press F1 etc before loading a saved game etc, and why options aren't working.

The exe of the trainer or the game? I redownloaded the trainer several times.

EDIT: I validated the steam install and it reinstalled 3 files. Game no longer crashes immediately, but the trainer still isn't working.
