Game crashes now after 18.4.45

cdidman · 04-15-2017, 11:41 PM

Can not play a single game now. I can simulate a day, but when I actually go into play a game, it just brings up a players name as it's loading a game, then says that ootp.18.exe has stopped working and has to close down.

Any ideas?

Unfortunately it is probably a local problem. If 18.4.45 were that unstable, you would be seeing many posts of complaint here.

The best thing to hope for is that your league files have not become corrupted. As a non-tech, what I would recommend you do is to save your league, de-activate your license, uninstall, and reinstall the game. Restore your league to the saved games folder. Then see if it will run.

If not, then you may want to post in the bugs forum or start a new league. Good luck.

Before that I'd also suggest the usual shut-down-unplug "hard reboot", if you haven't tried that. Sometimes it cleans these things up. Probably not yours but try anyway!

It actually happens anytime the game goes to "creating a picture" of a player. Crashes now every time.

I never had a crash with OOTP18 (playing out every game until late July of current season). Since installing the latest update I have had two CTD in the middle of games.

This might not be just a "local event" for cdidman.
