Minidump Dialogue Box

from Sins Forums

This may be a system specific error -- it's certainly wierd enough! -- but when Sins crashes to produce the minidump dialogue box, it doesn't actually crash first.  It only crashes after I hit OK on the dialogue box...  it just sits there, frozen, and I can't figure out whats wrong until I alt-tab out to see there's a minidump going on.

 

Since I can't play for more than 2 minutes without a minidump, this is a problem...

Bleh, it used to crash, then display the box for me.

 

I remember how frustrating it was.

I experienced the same problem. Tried 4 times and 4 crashes.

If you're crashing on every game, with maxed out graphics settings, try playing at medium or lower -- there are some known bugs (IC is working to track them down -- we can reproduce at will, but they can't get it to occur locally) on playing with 'highest'.

It would be nice if there were a way for the program to examine your hardware and suggest optimum settings.
