[1.710] Game crashes/freezes - Post here

[wargasm]

Just to bring you up to date - After EF launcher kept failing I dowloaded a few small progs and every other newly downloaded launcher also failed so I reinstalled windows and COH and updated all and now EF launches fine, however trying to update EF it now stops at 36mg or 66% everytime - other connections work fine - I have craptastic 3connect so dont know if your end is broke or mine

@wargasm
If you cannot update to the latest version using the auto-update feature, you can always download the full version:

Before installing, uninstall your old version and make sure there is no EF file inside your CoH directory.

Do we now have a solution for game crashes/freeze or wait for the next patch?

[Blackbishop]

Nope, the game crashes because it fails to allocate more memory for EF. We cannot do anything about it unless Relic release the source code of CoH .

If you want to avoid crashes you should try the tips I suggest in my reply #92 of this topic, otherwise there is nothing we can do atm.

My apologies...I just have to change my Ultra settings to High.  Enjoying it as I type this.  Silly me.

[Blackbishop]

Whoops, I was mistaken XD... I wanted to refer to my post #80 .

Hello guys. Game had been crashes after sometime i played at maps 3*3, 4*4, not always, but sometimes. The low graphics solved this problem. The mod "Europa at war" need 6gb RAM, i have only 3,25gb (because Win 7 32bit, totally i have 4 gb). Will the more gigabytes of RAM solve this crashes?

[Blackbishop]

No, Company of Heroes is designed to follow the architecture rules of the 32 bits software. Even if you have 32 GB of RAM it will still crash. Besides 32 bits OS only support 3.5 GB at most AFAIK.

The problem of mods is that they usually surpass the amount of memory CoH can handle due to extra content. When you run CoH in Windows version of 32 bits, the amount of memory used is very limited. When you use the 64 version, the OS limits are "lifted", however CoH still remains as a 32 bits software, which means it cannot use the full potential of any rig.

That could only be fixed by Relic(I don't know if Cope can do it but probably not I guess), but seeing they are throwing everything to CoH2 it is pretty safe to assume CoH will be buried(as if it wasn't all this time, support-wise talking).

[Shwepps]

Oh, shit. So many great mods has kill by this crashes. Still hope Relic will be think about mods and solved this problem in CoH 2. Thanks for your support, waiting for Ostheer.

Hi there, my EF is crashed and "not responding" massage is pop up when the game finished downloaded and before the play start, I have not completely tried it but as far as I am sure the map Sevastopol, and Minsk have problems for sure, in fact most of the EF map or even vanilla map play with Soviet faction have this kind of problem frequently (vanilla map played with original faction, using EF bonus unit seem to work fine though). I tried play it in off-line mode... ..doesn't help.

 I am not sure if this a place to discuss this particular issue, if I am in the wrong place, please direct me to correct one. If not then, please, help.

Guys, you need to post your crash files as stated in the OP so they can be checked, otherwise nothing can be done atm.

[e22big]

I've tried to seek the dump file you asked in the OP but still mush confused in its technicality, can you provide more specific detail? Mainly on what is this window key? Can I just send you the Relic error report?

[Blackbishop]

As easy as a google query .

You can send the report to Relic, but then do not expect we will check it, because we are not them and most likely they stopped to check crash reports many years ago .

By the way, have you checked this? http://easternfront.org/forums/index.php?topic=1677.msg56631#msg56631
