Game Constantly Crashes During or After Cutscenes *CLOSED*

[iXu Helminth]

So I must say. I got this during the MWNL event and what I have seen of this game so far is amazing. But it gets annoying when every time a cutscene ends and I'm about to resume gameplay the windows error pops up and says the game has stopped working.

WHAT I HAVE TRIED SO FAR:
-Windowed mode
-Compatability Mode
-Lowering graphics settings
-Changing resolution
-Verifying game cache

If anybody out there has a solution for this they can share with me I would be very thankful. Thanks in advance!

im on the same boat. Hope a fix can be found soon

I'm having similar problems myself. In my case, it happens almost as soon as a cutscene begins. I keep reading about setting some switch to 3GB to fix it, but the guide everyone links to is gone, so I don't know how to do so or if it would even work. Perhaps someone else can post here with some help on that front?

For reference, I'm running Windows 10 with an Intel HD 4000. 10 GB RAM. Running the game on a monitor connected to my laptop. I tried switching to single monitor mode, but it only improved it for a short bit. I'm now back to crashing at every cutscene. Otherwise the game runs smooth.

Yeah. I kept reading that as well. Hopefully something can be found to fix it.

I've done everything as well Get stuck at Chapter 2 cutscene after you fill the gas tanks up

I have the same problem, crashes after tutorial messages or before cutscenes. I have to try the 3GB solution, the other ones don't work for me. But that solution shouldn't work for me, I have Win10 64bits, not Win7 32bits I should not have problem with memory. I am afraid is a Win10/laptop with two graphic cards problem. Someone tell us if the 3GB solution works for him in Win10. Here you have that guide people mention.

I looked at all the problems mentioned. I can't seem to find something too specific for my problem. Most of what they mention is crashing after the intro, but that worked just fine. What I'm having a problem with is that the game crashes every time I reach a NEW cutscene, meaning if a cutscene starts for the first time it crashes but if it is the second or third time it works just fine. This is still kind of annoying though, because it means I have to replay the last 5 or so minutes before the cutscene over and over until it works and saves right after.

**EDIT** I just retried and it seems to be completly unwilling to work now. The cutscene when you first meet the weapon scavenger kids refuses to work no matter what. Does anybody know if the multiplayer has similar issues? It would be nice even if there is no fix for now, that I can still crush some robot heads with friends.

I'm having the exact same problem. Windows 10 with Intel Integrated HD 4000, the game runs extremely smooth, no hitching or frame lag, and my laptop isn't overheating. Therefore I doubt its the fault of the graphics card/CPU. Rather, the developer only optimized the game for a certain graphics card/idiotic programming. My game crashed after the intro cutscene, and now when I boot up the game again, it plays okay for the certain section until I enter another in-game/cinematic cutscene, and then crashes at that point.

Awesome job SEGA, really nice to see you guys have a real stellar QA team /s

Are you sure the Intel HD 4000 is equivalent to the Geforce GTX 220 the game states as a minimum? This sounds like an issue with integrated video and/or Windows 10, I've been playing the game for 2 hours and have seen more than a few cutscenes on my i7/GTX 660/Windows 7 x64 rig and have had no crashes.

For someone having issues with these game, i think i have found the solution. These port was not optimized to work with newer multicore CPUs, them, you need to set only one or two cores to work with the application.

To do it, start the game and, when in main menu, alt + tab to the desktop, open task manager (ctrl + alt + del), go to "details" tab and search for "BinaryDomain.exe" . When you find it, right click and choose "affinities" on menu. Leave only CPU0 and CPU1 marked in the list, confirm in ok, alt + tab back to the game and be happy.

PS: These config is not permanent, it only will affect the game when you do it. If you close the game and open again, will be neccessary do these steps again (it's a little boring, but better than have a good game wasted for poor support).
It worked for me in my w8.1 notebook with Intel HD and w10 desktop with Radeon R7 until now.

This is far more likely an issue with the game and Windows 10/the Intel HD drivers as I'm running on a Core i7 Sandy Bridge (8 cores with hyper-threading) on Windows 7 and have had no problems in my few hours playing the game, so I doubt that's the issue.

I think I have figured out the problem. I'm gonna close this up.

[thefire225]

yes please share what you found. information to fix this issue that actually works is hard to comeby.
