FOG 2 crashing under windows 11

[thorsten]

Hi,

FOG 2 worked fine with my old computer using Windows 10. Since I am using a new computer under Windows 11 FOG 2 is crashing nearly every bound.

Ideas?

[pipfromslitherine]

Can you please post the contents of the error.log file immediately after a crash (or the most recent timestamped error*.log file in the same folder) from Documents/My Games/FieldOfGlory2

Cheers

Pip

Hi Pip,
thank you for your help. I can see no way to add an attachment. So I can do it like this:

Is that the entire error log? Did you post one grabbed immediately after the crash?

When does the crash happen? Are you running any mods?

And: what is the error message that comes up?

Cheers

Hi Pip,
let´s see:

Is that the entire error log?
Yes.

Did you post one grabbed immediately after the crash?
Yes.

When does the crash happen?
Randomly during my bound. Not while it´s the computers move.

Are you running any mods?
no.

And: what is the error message that comes up?
None. The computer crashes completely. To reboot I have to pull the plug.

I hope these are helpful informations

Beste Grüße
Thorsten

When you say crashes the whole system, do you mean you just get a black screen? Nothing happens if you hit return?

Looking at the log, it looks like you are running on a fairly low end GPU (the integrated part in your machine) - it could be that the drivers need to be updated, as no "normal" code can cause a hard lock under Windows.

Ecactly.

Hi again,

I´ve updated the gpu-driver today. With no effect, I am afraid. The game crashes as before. About every three minutes.

[pipfromslitherine]

If it crashes every few minutes then there is clearly something going wrong with the system itself. My guess is that it is overheating (it's the most common explanation for these kinds of hard crashes).

I would try downloading a CPU/GPU monitoring app and watching your temperatures. I would also suggest trying running in Windowed mode (it should look identical to fullscreen). It might provide some insight into what is going on.
