Hi Whats the story with these mini dumps? I have looked so very forward to playing online with friends and got to have a really enjoyable start to the game and then about 30 mins into the game it mini dumps.thats twice in a friggin row and am not friggin impressed.How long till this is fixed??????
Mini dumps are a generic crash -- they simply take a random crash and take the data from the games state and write it to a file (the minidump) that allows the dev's to figure out what happened.
In short, a minidump is the same thing that happens when other games simply have windows tell you the game stopped working, only better because by turning in the generated file you can improve the odds of the devs fixing the problem.
minidump is short for miniture dump file - a snapshot of what was happening to enable troublshooting - its the Sins version of Dr Watson....
Ok 
thanks for your replies,so how long does it take to find the friggin thang?im not having a go at the devs,but hey i paid for a product and enjoy playing online but this problem has been around for donkey's years,so i guess the answer could only be answered by a dev who is currently "figuring it out "?? 
What problem? Mini-dumps aren't a singular problem, they are the result of any bug that causes a crash -- including non-game 'bugs' like idiots who forget to update their drivers. Hence why you should send the resulting file in to ironclad!
