Put graphic settings to "low", and crashing should stop.

I have the same issue that started occurring after the v 1.01 release. If I turn everything to low, on my secondary monitor which has a lower refresh (60), and I run on battery power, I think I am stable. Higher settings on anything, or being plugged in causes the reboot as some time later. @AndrewT has been assisting me with the issue but we don't have answers yet.

Thanks for the advice but even on low it just crashed to reboot again so back to the drawing board

Is vsync enabled? Double check since the v1.03 went live.

Yes it is, I got a good 5 min last time with it on low but having to save like every turn is getting stupid. I've only ever had this problem with 1 other game and it was addressed in a patch a long time ago. I'm not sure what else to do other write this game off as a loss and not purchase anything else from said developer and publisher in fear of future problems like this. I am hoping they can help so it never results in that I actually liked Stellaris and Shadowrun.

Have you updated graphic drivers for a week? You need the new ones if you havnt.

Ok let me say thanks for the ideas, but its not my first rodeo with trouble shooting my games not working. I know to make sure everything is up to date, drivers, os, game files, and so on... could not call myself a computer tech if I didnt do this lol. All I know is there is a conflicting issue with something on my system with game code or its an issue with the code and various drivers. I'm trying to rule out backgroud programs since I started this thread.

Okay, I believe I have a fix for mine (although I don't like it), taking my secondary monitor down to 1020X768 and running it on low is now stable. V 1.00 ran on high at 1920X1080 like a champ so I don't know what changed but I am now stable again.

But what is the point in having a game that looks this good if you have to run it at that low of a resolution?

I'm getting crash to reboot as well, always in a campaign mission to the point now where Served Cold mission I get at best one shot into the initial combat and it reboots.

 

[Leith Maclaine]

I understand the complaint. I however like the game play so much that I can stomach it at the lower resolution (I would like a fix, but I can live with it lower).
