more crashes after update

[Kevin Porter jr.]

was running fine after i employed a few fixes, then the patch came and my game is unplayable. Any tips? I messed with virtual memory...etc

anybody know how to inform Devs regarding below error. I am having this almost every day after update.

Yeah, I agree. Before the update I'd have maybe one crash if the UGC wasn't made properly, but now I'm having a crash with just about every single game including single player games with no mods. Pretty annoying.

Bumping.
So happy they finally fixed the AI, sadly instead the game has started crashing.. -_-

[wrexo]

yeah i literally just had this same issue

game will run very smooth without any issues whatsoever. However, about 5-20 minutes after launching, my game will freeze for about a second and then close the app to windows without any message or not responsive message. The app just shuts down instantly without a trace after the freeze. This keeps on happening every time i try to play the game

Dug into my event viewer and also saw that ucrtbase.dll is the issue

It's crashing since the beginning for me, but now one week after uptade it starts crashing down... The more it goes the more I wondering why they did not update HD since it's the same motor?
why trying to do a buggy thing. Even streamers have crash on stream...

Let's go back on voobly/hd

[refnotlooking]

They fixed the issue of not being able to play at all with the last update. Now i can play for about 20 min and really get invested in it before it crashes to windows...

Same error here...it's unbearable for the game to be slammed and you lose an hour of your time...

Try opening a Windows command prompt in administrator mode, type "sfc /scannow" without quotes and press enter. This will scan all your critical Windows operating system files for errors and try to repair any problems it finds.

The error you guys are having is most often caused by a corrupted ucrtbase.dll file or registration. That file is an essential DLL file for the Windows operating system and a key component of the Microsoft C Runtime Library. It is NOT recommended to just download a new file and replace the old one because it is a file that is interconnected with numerous Windows aspects and messing with it manually can cause even more problems as Windows might not recognise or understand how to use the "different" file from what it expects.

Another option (one that can potentially fix problems in a number of circumstances) might be to manually install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 Redistributable included with the game. Go to the game's folder and run vc_redist.exe as an administrator. I've found issues with this run time library not always being set up properly on people's computers and causing problems in games. Steam is supposed to be able to properly install the needed files but I've had two friends where it didn't and doing this manually solved their problems.

Hope that helps.

I have Age of Empires 2 hd 2013 Steam version with version 5.8 faulting dll files (e.g. CELib_x86.dll)

You can follow the fixed post: "📌 [GUIDE] Reporting Game Issues"

Still, a lot of problems last month / updates. Best solution: waiting for the next update.

I just realized that the original post is from year 2019. A fantastic way of knowing that the scary updates are pure fear since the beginning.
