twolow Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 It seems to be like clock work that about 20 minutes into a freeplay the game just closes on its own.I am going to do some problem solving on my own today to see exactly why but just wondered if this is just a common thing or not.I'm running deluxe version with LA Mod.I am going to see if it still does it without running the mod and also I will be updating my video drivers although I don't see that being the problem.My guess it is either the mod or maybe the game is trying to start a new scenario in freeplay that causes it to quit.Any input?I am running a 1.7 ghz XP pc with a 256 meg GeForce video card.

twolow Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 OK, just to add to that I just got shut down while playing a regular no mod freeplay at approximately 20 minutes into the game. I'm going to update my video drivers now to see if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twolow Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 I guess it was my video drivers as I'm playing a LA Mod game a hour into the freeplay and no issues! *does a happy dance* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 sometimes it can be due to the virus scanner even how strange it sounds ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twolow Posted January 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 sometimes it can be due to the virus scanner even how strange it sounds ^^Yeah I thought that too and closed all those programs during my troubleshooting. I wouldn't have thought it to be the drivers myself since it played perfect till the crash, no lagging or any sort of video issues. Go figure.

Go figure.*sigh* its happening to me 2, I try and save before I crash and burn! I am playing EM4 on my laptop, I must try and shutdown Norton and see if that makes a difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
