UI Crash

I have problems with the UI, after 15 minutes playtime crash the interface. i can see it, but cant interaction with this. The camera cant move, but the game continues.
I have no Error Massage or something.

Has anyone a suggestion for me?
How can i fix this bug?

PS: Sorry, my english is not so good, but i hope one understand me.

Hello,

Can you please upload your Dxdiag.txt so that I can take a look at your system specs?

Yes, here.

Your AMD drivers could use an update:

Code:

Card name: AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
Driver Version: 14.100.0.0
Driver Date/Size: 4/18/2014 04:42:54, 1343272 bytes

Here is the link to the latest beta drivers from the AMD website:
http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows 7 - 64

The beta drivers are at the bottom of the page.

And I see two instances of this:

Code:

Sound Tab 1: The file ctaud2k.sys is not digitally signed, which means that it has not been tested by Microsoft's Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL).  You may be able to get a WHQL logo'd driver from the hardware manufacturer.

I'll have @SXX take a look at this to see if your sound drivers are up to date. But for now, start with your graphics drivers.

Now crash the game without any bug report.

And by the first retry, crushing AMD Catalyst Control Center after the loading a 3 planet map.

I see in your PA log that you have a list of mods installed. Have you tried disabling/uninstalling them?

Yes, i tried. But the problem is not solved, i have the same problem.
Is 8GB Ram not enough? Somehow I think that this trouble is connected with it, but I do not know.

EDIT: Experiement 2, the same problem. I cant use the UI and camera, the game continues.

I see you have SSD and your page file size looks weird so I guess you decreased / disabled it:

Code:

          Page File: 3868MB used, 4810MB available

If I'm right (or even if I'm not) try to increase page file (on HDD of course) to at least 12GB:

beginning and max size the same?

problem is solved, so far no crash. But I have a second problem yet, after 20minutes playtime have i slow motion in game, 1 ingame second is 4 seconds long.

Hi, the 'slow motion' is caused when the server 'sim' speed is too slow. The game slows down to match the server speed. This is usually caused if very large number of units are on area patrol, or large numbers of units are getting stuck.


Uber are looking into ways of improving these issues, in the mean time avoiding planets with trees can help.


If you can post the game ID's (go to 'replays' and filter 'my games only' then note the numbers for the effected games) they can have a look to see specifically why your game is slowing down.

Okay, i understand.
Thank all involved for your help! I hope my english was not so bad.

Bit of a thread revival, but I have suddenly started having this issue. About a minute in, the Uber bar chat window opens, and I lose the ability to do anything but zoom in and out of the game - which continues to play, just without me being able to control anything. Doesn't happen all the time, but about a third of my games today have done this.

I run a mac - is there a dxdiag equivalent?

Do you use any mods?

I do normally, but disabled them and still had the issue. I'll try removing them entirely and see if that helps.

You can try running game with the '--nomods' switch, rather than deleting them all...
