  • GAME BUILD #: 14355041
  • GAME PLATFORM: Steam
  • OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

:point_down: DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
When it crashes I get the message that Radeon has crashed and the screen turns green, I wait about 30 seconds and the graphics automatically restarts and gives me video, but, when it comes back to life, the objects are black boxes as I show in the photo.

I have done everything, believe me, reinstalled, formatted completely, I even bought a better power supply since one of the “green screen” problems is lack of power, but nothing, absolutely none of this has worked for me.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

:point_down: How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!
Is random, sometimes it happens after 30 minutes of playing, sometimes after 2 hours, etc.

  • 70% of the time / matches I play (FREQUENTLY)

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

:point_down: List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!

Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. As I mention above, this is pretty random. It’s worth mentioning that I only play Custom Games.

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

:point_down: What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
Well, on Steam I have already seen people with similar problems, something that should be paid attention to. It is a common good for everyone.

:arrow_forward: IMAGE

:point_down: ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.

:arrow_forward: GAME FILES (SAVE / RECORDING)

:point_down: Attach a SAVE GAME (.aoe2spgame) or GAME RECORDING (.aoe2record) of the match where you encountered the issue. Link it below if using an external file service.
I get this message when I want to upload the saved game: “Sorry, new users can not upload attachments.”

But it does let me upload an image.

Hi @ElPozolero
Is your GPU overheating when this happen?

Hi.
No, the temperatures are normal.

@EDIT
Recently it just happened to me again, I’ll leave the last Log.

LOG: AOE2 LOG - Pastebin.com

Any solution?, on Steam are more than 30 posts about crashes since recent updates

Well, I haven’t played much lately (which is also why it’s discouraging to be in such an intense, almost 2-hour game and this crashes), but it happened to me again, exactly at 8:08 PM GMT-7 (which is equal to 3:08 AM UTC)

Reviewing the Log I realized that a Line with that schedule is missing and this error appears: IDXGISwapChain::Present: hresult = 0x887a0005, Device lost reason = 0x887a0007

I attach a photo:

Complete log: AOE2 LOG ERROR #2 - Pastebin.com

I hope this can help you in some way.

This has become unplayable, since practically when a game goes on this happens no matter what.

So many months and no solution on this.
