Issue:
Hello,
I am repeatedly and constantly encountering a random crash at single player with Age of Empires 2. The crash often occurs after a few minutes when moving my mouse around the screen or when i execute an attack move. So far I didn’t get to complete a single game-play against the AI; always a crash at random timestamp.
The crash is followed by a black or white screen. When I run TaskManager the game seems to comsume at least 3500 MB out of my 6 GB physical RAM.
It’s likely that this happening because I have high APM but then… Starcraft 2 and Age of empires 1 run smoothly nevertheless my APM.
Also before the game starts, the animation with particles floating around is awfully laggy and runs as if it is a “.gif” image with has 3 frames in total.
I was able to capture FPS from these games:
Game Title------------Graphics--------------FPS-----------State
Age of Empires 1 (low graphics) => 64 FPS (No Crash)
Age of Empires 2 (low graphics) => 51 FPS (Crash + Black/White Screen + Computer freezes)
Starcraft 2 (low graphics) => 78 FPS (No Crash)
Thanks,
Reproduction Steps:
- Use a computer with similar specs (check enclosed text file)
- Try to use hotkeys and your mouse to achieve an average apm of 250 (which is my personal average based on Starcraft algorithm)
