Ever since 1.02 I have been experiance consistence, random crashes. They come after either seconds or hours of play. As per a suggestion from the boards I disabled the online profile automatic updating, which seems to have been a problem for some people. I was also using camp storage, respec mod, and the lock bash mod, but I disabled the respec and the lock to see if they were the culprits. I include the handy Win7 error box:

Ive been getting basically same result...Random crashes, and full screen rendering glitches (more so video issues). They are sudden, and often! I have recently put new HD 5870's in my system, and thought perhaps one of my card's where faulty, but I have tested both individually with other high end games, and had no issues what so ever, so, it's not the card's (thank god). It's obvious the game needs more work (fixes), and I hope they release one soon...getting tired of the interuptions!

[Kaeldryn Shadowbinder]

I also have 5870s running in my new system, Win 7 64-bit.. Every 10-15 mins it crashes to desktop with a very similar if not exact error message.. Had no problem at all in XP. Think it's Win 7, personally, but maybe someone has an idea for fixing this.. Other than a hammer.

[Rylor Tormtor]

Well, I am not sure if it is Win7, since I got it before DAO and the only crashes I have experienced were after 1.02 was installed. Oh, and a hilarious script glitch where I nailed Morrigan in full Warden's Commander armor.



I am going to double check drivers and such, but I was hoping to finish this playthrough before ME2 comes and I am consumed. =(

Fast moving forum today

Hi all.. I played without any problem for about 60 hours. Last sunday I updated the game to 1.02 and also downloaded Warden's Keep. After this I began to have random crashes to desktop (with the generic message saying the application stops to work)



I have tried:



1) Uninstalling the game and reinstalling it with only dlc but without Patch 1.02 the game still crashes !!!



2) Uninstalling the game and reinstallling it with no DLC (forced saved games to run) and without patch and the game still crashes !!



3) Reinstalling SO (!!!!) reinstalling the game, reimporting saved games which I backed up and both with version 1.0.0 and 1.0.2 the game still crashes !!



PS.. I tried both Vista and Windows7 and the game crashes anyway !!



4) I managed that saved games could be corrupt so I create new character and started new campaign, after 5 minutes the game crashed !! In an area where the first time I played several days ago I had no problem !!



5) I tried all throubleshooting possible (disabling online entries, forcing the game to use only one core) none of them works



I have no problems with hardware specifics. All drivers are updated (Video Adapter is NVidia GEForce 8600 M GT) and I believe that if I had some incompatibility with the game the problems should not began after a month and after several days I was playing !!!!



I hope in a new patch as soon as possible. Luckily I finished the game despite of crashes and I have my post campaign save for Dragon Age Awakening but I won't play it with continuos game crashing . It's nerve-racking !!!!!!

[MaxQuartiroli]

One thing I forgot to say in my previous post.. When the application hangs I am able to open task manager. Dragon Age process is about 1,300,000 - 1,400,000 kb mem usage !!! Senseless !!!

[Rylor Tormtor]

Hmmm, that mem usage is interesting, I have never been able to (or thought to) to take a look at it. I also uninstalled and disabled virus protection and scanners and updated my nvidea drivers (which there was a release like yesterday). All to no avail.

     Trust me I feel your pain. Before the latest patch I could play the game almost at the highest settings (x4aa instead of x8aa), and now it wont play without crashing every 5 minutes or so, and the framerate is like a slideshow. The worst is when I load old save games in areas that worked fine and they crash almost instantly.
       I just love paying $70x2 (CE PC), (CE PS3) for someting that is collecting dust. Don't even talk to me about (to the Devs) expansions or DLC until this major screw up is fixed. I cancled my ME2 pre orders I'm so disgusted. The final straw was when I eneded up not being able to load up a saved game, since all my LEGIT DLC was found missing, that was on that save game. Thanks but no thanks BIOWARE, I'll play Divinity II and Sacred 2 to get my RPG fix (yes they are buggy, however they do work, you can play them), can't really say that about DO:A in its current state.

It's the same thing for me too... The worst thing for me is that uninstalling and reinstalling the game without patch and loading old saves I had crashes that during my first playtime I never had

So this means that saves are corrupted or something similar

By the way.. last chanche... Yesterday I made a back up of my saved games that I will load in awakening and formatted my HD. I downgraded my pc from Vista to XP... Reinstalled game + 1.02 + all DLC and today I will try to start a new campaing on a clean game without any other saves or characters

Hope it will work !!!

I had downloaded some of the free modules around you can get, like the hair addons, the armour texture updated one... etc. I was suffering from severe crashing last week, when I removed the addons, the crashing stopped. So I guess its something to do with the patching, where the files get allocated too, or just perhaps something dodgy in the download in some way. I had the same problem with the memory usage jumping right up. It was about 1,001,120k the last I had noted it...



Since removing the addons (Im not technical enough to do any more than that lol) I've not had a single problem with any of the game, old saves as well as new. And I'm happy enough to drool all over Alistair a little bit more.



I dunno if this post actually helps anyone, I like to think somewhere out there it may lol... but its just something to consider perhaps. I havent downloaded wardens keep yet, so we'll see

if that´s the case, id say its not related to what type of mods you have, but more that one actually have any type of mod.. im getting the same bug, and all my mods are all storebought. so, mods + recent patch seems to be the problem. hopefully it will be resolved sometime in the near future.  if i encounter the same crash again, ill check if i too get the odd memory-usage.

the.. more annoying part is.. my game just crashed when i was fighting the damn sloth aswell, and everything was going so well too!..

[Hulabell]

Zwober - I know how frustrating that is! I was fighting the Broodmother Boss and got through it without a crash... my chars put their weapons away... I hit f5 to save and *poof* there it went But thankfully its all sorted now! hehe.



And yup I agree with the modding part. Something must just be unstable within a file I guess.

[Schmalzstulle]

i have the same random crashes. System is Win7 64 and i also have played those areas before. downgrading video driver didnt change a thing and updates are none available. i hope for a solution soon. oh and deactivating whatever content didnt help me either unfortunately

[Rylor Tormtor]

I turned down my video settings a bit and played for 4-5 hours today with no crash, I know anecdotal evidence is anecdotal, but I would suggest trying that.

[MaxQuartiroli]

with windows Xp for now i have played with high video resolution settings and high text details.. Only three crash for now... 2 at Lothering and 1 at Denerim...which are the places where I know people have most of the problems with crashes.

Not bad but I was thinking that during my first gameplay I never had this kind of problem.. Well.. I never tried to play with low video resolution because I refuse to do this due to my hardware equiment.. It's a shame if I must play to lower resolution with my hardware specs !!!

oddly enough tho, i havent encounterd one single crash in the last days of playing. if anything tho, my char dosent seem to update her progress to the web..(and i just bedded lei d*mmit) but, that might just be related to some oddball firewall blocking da:o even tho im telling it not to.. i can live with it, since i atleast dont crash.

now i just have to "wrap" the game together before i get ME2, not to mention that i have to replay ME1 first >.<

good luck with the crashes the rest of you, i seem to have.. fixed myself ?

[zartan88]

Well, my game has started to crash now, I'm on my third playthrough and it's now got really bad. It crashes at random during transition loads.



The bit I don't understand is why its just started when I've changed no settings, I've never used any mods and using 1.02a since its release.

Its very annoying.

[ThomaVanguard]

I've been having them a lot lately too. Some things I've noticed is that they almost always happen during combat when there are a lot of special effects rendering (Virulent Walking Bomb went from being my best friend to breaking my game ). Also one time I noticed after combat Leliana was standing there in her model pose (arms out at an angle and feet spread apart) so it looks like it had a problem loading her. She's always in my party so I don't know if the game is getting stuck on her or not.

[CStylen]

Win 7 64-bit here with latest Nvidia drivers and newest version of the game. I have been experiencing completely random crashes and game lock-ups (I have to go to task manger and force close). No mods installed currently.



I really love the game, but the crashes get old quick. Does anybody have any solutions yet?
