Bumping this thread with some additional information that I haven’t seen online yet.

At 0 seconds into the game, all assets appear to be loaded in and are interactable:

After 1 second of game time, the fenceposts outlined in green de-spawn, with AoE2 crashing to screen very shortly thereafter:

(I had a screenshot here, but I’m limited to 1 image file per post. The screenshot was of of the scenario 1 second in, with the fences gone like in OP’s post)

I’m not sure if it’s these fence assets in particular are the problem, or if just some asset limit is being reached when the ally camps are revealed. For reference, this crash happens to me on the Windows 10 Steam edition on the same build number as the OP.

Hope this helps.

Ciao ragazzi. Io ho scaricato il gioco sulla mia PlayStation 5 e il bug è lo stesso. Entro nella 3 missione di Prithviraj un secondo ed esce dal gioco. Voi avete risolto? Grazie mille!
