I recently downloaded SEE and it's been working perfectly, except that most of my matches crash mid-game. Nothing in particular seems to cause it. The first time it happened the game quit and there was an error message that I believe said something like "due to the severity of this error the game will now close." It pertained to certain game files. Since then every crash has just quit the game with no other error message. I am playing on Windows 7. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Have you patched the game ?

[cestensrud]

Yeah, version 1.06. That was the only way SEE worked in the first place. I played one match today and it never crashed, but I'm assuming it will again.

Unfortunately this isn't something specific

 

If you want to submit a bug then we need something like this:

"When I build the eagles they come out as Fellbeasts and the game crashes." or "When a swordsman is built on Fords of Isen archers then appear pink." That sort of bug can then be traced to the mod.

 

Your mid-game crash does not tell us anything, so it could be lots of things ranging from:

• You have a cracked game (will close after a certain time or just be a pain-in-the-bottom)
• Your computer is wrong
• Your graphics/sound/other card is wrong
• Your game is wrong and needs to be completely reinstalled
• Your download of SEE is corrupted
• Any sort of bugs that we don't-know/already-know, but you are not telling us which one it is
• ???

Those data dumps that the game makes when it crashes won't help either, as none of us can read that gibberish.

 

I recommended a reinstall and a redownload and then try different compatibility settings in the shortcut properties.

[cestensrud]

I'll do that if it happens again, thanks!

Thank you. ;D

I had that bug.

 

Map: Arnor. Just the normal Arnor.

Faction: Mordor against Random (I didn't make it to finding out who the enemy was).

So I just normally began playing, started building up Slaughterhouses as close to the fortress as possible while still having production at 100%. I made about 4-5 of the Houses and then I ordered one of my builders to build a Lumber Mill while the other two were building an Orc Pit and an Orc Elite Pit. After the mill was ready I tried to construct some walls as far from my base as possible but before I issued the command to start building... dat. error.

 

I have a Windows 8.1, patch 1.06 of BFME 2, and a legal copy of the game.

If you try to replicate the error, by doing the same thing, does it happen at the same place/time?

i suspect incompatibility with Win8 though...
