Mini Dump Problems

March 3, 2008 8:44:28 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums

After playing for an hour or two, the game stops and exits. Then a "mini dump error box" comes up. (i click "ok") then my game shuts off. And then i have to restart the game.

same here, it could be a number of things ranging from ethernet, internet, or RAM from what i can see.
although RAM seems least like then again mini dump sounds like a RAM error.
hopefully there be a fix in a new patch.

I had the minidump problem followed by a BSOD and main memory dump.... My poor PC, its only 2 years old, and I think its on its way out!!! It has a host of issues... I think the Hard Drive is also crashing.

If you are experiencing crashes, please zip up the following items and email them to support@ironcladgames.com with a description of the problem:

+ A dxdiag of your PC (Start -> Run -> type "dxdiag" and hit Enter -> Save all information).

+ Any mini-dump files that were generated from the locations below (note that these directories are Hidden by default):

XP: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp\Sins Dump

Vista: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\Sins Dump

+ For multiplayer games, please include your save games from each person who crashed.

It should go without saying that if you haven't done it already, make certain you have the latest video and sound drivers for your systems.

after working around in the mulitplayer I've discovered that the minidump (For me) occured when another player did a specific action (In my case and ally moving his fleet to a different planet).
testing it numerous times have in my opinion that it might be a game conflict with a code then again the save might be corrupted.
