Panzer Corps Crashing

Post by gtrpastor »

Panzer Corps has crashed twice in the last 24 hours. I've never had it crash before. It was on two completely different scenarios that it crashed, so it wasn't at a certain spot in the game that it occurred. Both times the sound started acting weird right before the crash--the sound would lag behind what was happening, or it would just be silent when there should be sounds.

Autosaves worked fine when I reloaded them, so I didn't save the game file.

Here are my specs:

Intel i3 M350 @ 2.27 Ghz
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
4 GB RAM
Intel HD Graphics Core i3
IDT High Definition Audio

I tried to include the info from the Event Viewer in Windows, but the forum complained that it looked too "spammy," and asked me to remove off-site URLs. I had no URLs in the info, but it did have XML info. So I tried to attach it as a file, but apparently the forum doesn't allow attaching of .txt files. So I am at a loss as to how to include pertinent info. Anyway, let me know if you need more info, and how to include it.

Do you have any mods installed?

Thanks for the response.

I just checked and have verified with the Generic Mod Enabler that no mods are currently activated.

The problem occurred once while playing Afrika Corps and once while playing the '39 Grand Campaign. It also happened after long sessions with the game. I usually only play for about an hour at a time, and both of these instances occurred after playing for a few hours.

That's a known issue. You should exit the game and restart the game more often during long sessions.
The /nocache switch can also help you. On how to implement it, take a look at the original post in the following forum thread:

You need at least 5 posts to attach files of any type. I see you are well on your way to achieving this :D

Thanks for the info. It's good to know that this is a known issue, and apparently not a problem with my laptop. Thanks for the nocache tip. I may give that a shot.

I didn't catch that rule. Almost there! :)
