Permanent game crashes
Hello, I have been playing TW WH3 for over 190hours without any problems til 2 days ago.
My game is crashing in every situation possible, wether if I am moving on the campaign map or fighting a battle.
It happens regulary, round about every 10mins or so. Sometimes I have a good run and it takes more time to crash, sometimes even less.
What I have done so far against it?
So far everything I found online. Antivirus off, Windows new installed, new SSD, running with high priority, changing graphic settings, downloaded a mod from the workshop that should help with crashes, all my drivers are updated......
The list is long, but it didnt worked.
Is it just the game?
When can I enjoy the game again? Every second Im afraid of crashing, especially in a battle.
I hope someone knows a solution.

Hey, I am sorry you are chain-crashing. That sucks.

It is weird that you suddenly have a problem you did not have before, it seems something changed in the last 2 days to make the game unstable.

I personally had some problems with the latest nvidia drivers on my laptop (video glitches), and solved it by rolling back to the previous version.

Can you find a crash log anywhere? That might help you understand what is going on.

I have found a crash log and a critical problem in the event viewer, but that hasnt helped me to find the problem.

I have stopped using alt+tab during the game and this helped me fixing the crashes atm. No idea why this works, but it worked for 1-2 hours playing.

I had this problem when playing warhammer 2 on my older PC. Alt-tabbing a few times would crash it for whatever reason. I suspect it is hardware related because I alt-tab a lot on my current PC and it has not crashed once doing it.

In general, alt-tabbing is fickle for most games and should be avoided.

One issue i have identified is the ram frequency.
In fact XMP and other ram overclock who go upper than the 2133 MHz are not always very stable du to compatibility issue with differents motherboards etc . . .
In a normal use with a game that is correctly opmitised ( super rare thoses days ) you should not have any problems, but in WH3 case and some games like Apex etc, you have a very poor usage of the ram, so problems appears.
