Demigod randomly crashes mid game... without an error...

May 10, 2009 3:04:53 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

I'm having an issue where I am in the middle of a match and Demigod just closes... The program ends itself and returns me to the desktop. It happens mid game... tried it both with the standard version of Demigod, and today's beta patch.

Windows Vista 64 Home Premium
Intel i6 Core2-Quad Q6700
4GB g.Skill DDR2-1000 RAM
80GB 10K-RPM Western Digital Raptor
ATI Radeon HD 3870x2 Platinum
5.9 Windows Vista Experience Rating

This bug is WORSE than the crashing on fail to connect bug. With the fail to connect bug, you only screw yourself. With this bug, a computer AI takes over for your account; essentially screwing over your team mates... who probably think you quit for QQing.

Same happened to me... once with a Runtime Error and once it simply closed the game without doing nothing...

3 times in a row... I played all yesterday without any crashes... now... cant get through a single game.

Looking at my account on the Pantheon, NONE of the games with these crashes are getting recorded... maybe the match itself crashed?

omg, that is happening to others too?  I had no idea.  Same here, but I thought it was some kind of virus on my computer.  Just drops to desktop out of the blue, but the computer seems just fine after that.

Check to make sure you're using the most up to date version of DirectX.  You can update here:

This just happened again. Two games in a row now all of a sudden. Ran a bootable ram tester and hotcpu tester last night. running off to go use 3dmark, but I'm really leaning towards it's a software problem since my hardware has been checking out AOK, and so many of the other games I play use so much more of the these resources. Game shut down from in game, to straight to desktop, no error or anything, all of a sudden just desktop.

on top of my specs above, games i have played on normal to full settings recently problem free: gears of war, command and conquer 3, earth 2150, assassin's creed, and frontlines fuel of war. these games are all much more graphics/cpu intensive and play fine with no crashes.

edit: i also run DG on the lowest settings possible due to fear of lag.

Still happening, WTB patch. Here's the link to my last game. I was 8-0 and the game was over when I crashed with ashkandar, bulwark of ages, and giants.

Hello demigod guys/gals, i understand your busy but i can no longer play w/o getting kicked off. With such a small community im afraid my account will be blacklisted. All im asking for is a response acknowleging the issue. You guys have been great thus far, i just want to know if this issue is being looked at. Thanks for your time

If anyone has any crash logs or mini dumps from this (I believe a .dmp file may be placed in the demigod folder after a crash), please make sure to send them on to support so they can be investigated.

nothing pops up... no error log or anything just instantly sends you to your desktop like nothing was ever opened. Is there a way to get an error log or report it?

No dump files or anything when it crashes.  It's going to be hard to track this bug without more information.  GPG may have to get an update in just to be able to gather more info for folks who are crashing.

i'm sure a lot of people have tried this already, but after all the recent patching i decided to just do a clean install of the game. after reinstalling I haven't had this issue pop up again yet, but it didn't happen that often anyways and it's only been a day. anyone reinstalled and still have this problem?

Why I am not surpized to see 23 "dittos" on a message like this. Yeah, this game has randomly dropped me from everything from single player to trying to enter the pantheon.
