[Possible Fix]Exessive minidumps! Can anyone relate? Hotfix on the way?

Anyone know how to beat em?

from Sins Forums

Hey everyone!

I'm sure most of you, if you have even been able to run your game (which took me a while to do:annoyed: ) you probably noticed that it is nearly impossible to play a game without a minidump. For me this happens every time the advent send a Talon Savior into my planet to build a starbase, it's either when you tell your fleet to attack it or when the Ai tries to build it but it minidumps none the less.

Is this happening to anyone else? I'm now playing with graphics and textures on medium, but I still get minidumps, although not as often as on highest. Does anyone know if there is a way to get the dumps to stop. Hopefully we will see if they send a very prompt hotfix like they did in beta 1.0. 

With so many dumps sadly it looks like the Feb. 11th release date is all too good to be true.:S

Well i'm still trying to finish a game without the minidumps totaly killing me so see ya!

99% of the minidumps are the exact same problem - we haven't fully optimized the texture usage yet and people are running out of video memory or overloarding driver. Try reducing to the lowest texture detail, no bloom and no anti-aliasing. If that works, try pulling them up bit by bit.

This will be resolved in the next version.

I'm getting dumped every time I try to load my game from two days ago.

Beta1 save games are not compatible with beta2. (I'm assuming its a beta1 game because beta2 only came out 1 day ago)
