crashes

[Drezhnor]

it happens during a game, doing random things... Anyone else with that ?

[almosthere86]

Yes. The game crashed for me just now. Actually, I wish it had crashed. What it did instead was suddenly start taking up so much of my computer's resources that the rest of my computer froze up. It was using like 85% of my CPU. Had to hard reset - computer wasn't processing shut down commands. I only know that the game was using too much CPU because I waited 10 minutes for the window to open up after hitting CTRL+ALT+DELETE, but even though I was able to see the resources being used by each process, the UI wasn't responding to End Process commands.

Yeah same thing. All my games crashed. Can't get a full game going

Did any of you get a popup asking for details... or no, the game just stopped?

After a reboot of your PC, are you able to readily reproduce the issues from a save?

If you can, we would like to look at that save. You can upload it to a cloud drive service of your choice (GoogleDrive, OneDrive, etc) and post a shared link in a reply.

Saves are located:
C:\Users\[YourWindowsAccountName]AppData\Local\sins2

Game just stopped. Yeah. I reboot, reinstall. Still same problem. Game randomly crashes. Sometimes 15min in, sometimes it crashed as soon as I enter the map.

One of the saved file. I joined probably 10+ games. All end up crashing. I really want to play a game long enough to see build the titans.

yes, but the only detail i can give is : crashing during a random action (upgrading a ship, researching a tech, moving my fleet ....)

[cafeteria1860]

Maybe crashing occurs after gaming over 2 hours. Also, there's no any consistency of the crash. I cannot even anticipate what causes crash.

[Drezhnor]

we need more graphic options (like limiting the framerate)

I have your save but its not being recognized.

I want to have you verify your installation.

-Right-click over Sins II, 'Properties
-'Installed Files' then 'Verify integrity'
-When complete, start a new game
-Manually save it multiple times throughout your gameplay, giving it a name you will easily recognize.
-Should it crash, please run this batch file I have created and follow its instructions.

I want you to let me know on the 'heat' theory I noted on the other thread you posted in as well, please.
