Man this game is buggy. Had a pretty frustrating night last night trying to trouble shoot this crash. Tried all sorts of things. Basically I get a few PA.exe has stopped working. What's worse is sometimes my WHOLE computer would freeze and stop working. Finally figured out disabling sli fixes the issue and the game is now playable. And yes, I have the newest drivers. You guys should really warn people that sli doesn't work SOMEWHERE in a faq or a forum sticky or something. Would have fixed a lot of headache. I still get an occasional error where all the textures disappear and are replaced with a technicolor grid. Have to completely restart the game to fix it. I played this game 6 months ago and stopped because of bugs. Figured most would be resolved now....apparently not.
I used to have that texture issue occasionally happen with every game I played two years ago, but it was a problem no longer after I reinstalled windows. Probably a driver issue. Could you post a dxdiag?
I don't think there much players around using SLI because I didn't get any answers here: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/anyone-tried-to-run-pa-with-sli.67259/ If you switch to windowed mode game will likely work just fine. Though this is problem within Nvidia driver and not the game.
Window mode doesn't fix it, and I am not going to waste time submitting a dxdiag when I am running the latest drivers and it's obviously an SLI issue so I don't need to track the bug down, I know what the cause is.
If you won't upload your DxDiag we'll won't know what OS you're running, what resolution/monitors connected, etc. It's really important data in case crash not occur for every SLI user.
