EP occasionally crashes when leaving Options menu

Post by forgrin »

This has happened a handful of times to me within the last couple weeks. When using EP, if I open Options in-game, the game will freeze and I'll have to close it with task manager. The same has happened, less frequently, with the regular options menu out of game. When it does close properly out of game, the screen flickers black several times after closing.

It's been happening less now (?) But I've also been consciously not changing options in game anymore.

Can confirm at least one other person (Sir_Musket) has this problem too. Neither of us have the issue on RE.

Bumping this to say it's happening again on EP 3.0. Now happens every single time I close the menu.

going to add to this when duck, I, you, and site were in that sioux mirror game and it froze crazy bad I think, looking back, it was because I had just garrisoned a lot of villagers and was ungarisoning them while simultaneously attackmoving with my army.

In the past, I've had ungarison and attack move the same hotkey before which really fucked up my game and it would routinely freeze during battles, the bigger the worse. I've since switched those two hotkeys but there are still right next to each other and I think the quick succession of them might have triggered that freeze and eventual crash in that game.

No, same issue still. The only change I have to the game files is the Agra fort hotkey fix.

Edit: just confirmed that removing that file had no effect on the issue, it still crashes.

Yup it's fixed, thanks! The screen does a weird flicker when closing options but it doesn't crash the game.
