End of turn bug - crashes game

Post by lwchen »

I've noticed the beta tends to crash the game every now and then. This did not happen with any of the east campaigns or Afrika Corps. It seems isolated to the west campaign. Right now I'm testing the beta 3 and DLC 2 west campaign.

The first thing that happens is the color scheme is off. It's dark where it's supposed to be light. Invariably after this occurs, the game will lock up. I try to end the turn but nothing happens. Eventually I have to escape to the main menu but after that the game crashes. Sorry I can't be more specific but if it happens again this weekend I'll get some screenshots. The good thing is after I restart and load a saved game, everything is fine.

My guess is it's a memory issue somewhere. These crashes seem to occur after extended play ... maybe a few hours. Once the program is restarted it goes away.

Anyhow I run Win 7 64-bit, a GeForce 680, 16GB RAM on a X79 platform with a Intel 3960x CPU, all with updated drivers.

Take a look at this thread:

If you disable the animation cache it can reduce the possibility of crashing.
Take a look at the first post. It shows you hopw to disable Panzer Corps animation cache:
