This is like the freeze I reported a long time ago via a savegame I submitted. Thing is, it will eventually come back to life, it is almost like a race condition of some type. The other thing is, you never know when it will come back to life, since it will start up again, then freeze again.

Well, was all excited to try this game from the start again (campaign), and when it just started to go into the action part, where the guys are requesting help, it crashed. The (new?) crash handler has a few issues though, 1) there is no preview of what it is trying to send to Stardock, and 2) there is no privacy policy that I can find on that dialog.

[quote who="1Denshem" reply="31" id="3636115"] I suggest you wait for the AMD to reveal their cards, if you are not in the hurry. The prices of cards like R9 390 will go down even more and boy, those are some powerful beasts. About the 1070/80, hard to tell at this point. You will definitely get an increased performance, but most of the "benchmarks" you see now were done under the controlled environment.

Run furmark, and see if you have corruption, if you do, then you need to RMA the video card.

Just what artifacts are you talking about? You mean the dots on the explosions, or is it something else? Does it do that in DX11 as well?

We don't even know if the 1070 with have the same gimped VRAM the 970 does, we do know ROPs are the same so that is a bad sign.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="19" id="3634328"] Re sharing player made maps seamlessly. This won't be easy any time soon because a map is 140MB in size on average. People will have to, for the time being, share maps the same way they do in other games, which is through mod sites. Eventually we'll have Steamworks support for this to allow people to do this. But there won't be a case in the near term where the host is transferring a 140MB file t

Often this comes down to not knowing the power of quanta/research/orbitals or not understanding the value of unit composition.

Reply to Map editor "crash" in Ashes Modding AshesoftheSingularity Forums

This was only a test, and, yes, I was using the smallest map and I was running the map editor in a window, with the other screen showing RAM usage, and while it did hit 6GB, it didn't go over that. If it was a RAM problem, you would think it would throw up an error message. Just trying to find out what caused it, and why.
