Title: Runtime error c++ (Game crash when rendering towns, battles or new scenery)
Post by: Heaux on October 16, 2017, 05:43:19 PM
EDIT 2:
Still crashes but what I've done seems to delay the crash

EDIT 1:
I think I might have found a solution:

After I ticked all the rendering options off, the load times have been significantly increased in some places BUT no crashes :) Also lowering my res a little bit (from 4k to 1440p) reduces the load times a hella lot so it kinda makes up for it

inb4 my game crashes..

If it's steam, it could've been updating without you noticing.

Version 2.5. came out yesterday. It's not save game compatible.

When have you started your save?

I just downloaded the new update and made an entirely new save, though this "bug" has been happening ever since I downloaded the mod which was way before version 2.0 came out.

Then, uhh... Try turning on "load textures on demand"?

Considering your computer specs, it may not be helpful, but doesn't hurt to try.

Sadly I've already tried that and nothing happens, but thanks anyway :)

I saw somewhere, that ModDB version is more stable than the Steam one, as the latter doesn't allow to upload some files.

Maybe, try that one?

Hmm, could be an option but wouldn't that mean I'd have to start over again  :(

You could try to download an older version, like 2.0+2.2.


Although, I would recommend starting over on 2.5, as there were some quite important fixes. Once you've figured out the bug. It's the last version before 3.0, so you'll have plenty of time to play it.

Could it be my resolution? I'll just test if that's the case but I really doubt it xd

EDIT: still crashes

The problem with warband is it runds on dx9. This is troublesome for new graphics cards like yours. I found it ran better on my 680 than my 980ti.

I certainly wouldn't use sli, this game is no where near designed for that. I would also run it at no more than 1080p resolution.


The main reasons for crashing will be video memory, the bigger textures used the higher the chance of a crash, also the extra video memory in your new cards will not even be used.


So with all this in mind, bigger is not always better. If you want higher res without selecting 4k you could possibly try using a super sampler in your card settings.
You need to think of ways to use your cards processing power rather than using extra memory.


I have a 980ti, 16gb ram, 2700k and i never crash when playing.
I make sure edit mode and cheats are off.
Keep load textures on demand turned to on.
Have all other in game settings set to max.
Keep ragdolls on low or off.

The only times i get crashes is when in edit mode and testimg the mod, or going in and out of locations that require a lot of textures to be loaded in quick succession.

You could also delete your rgl_config file and let it auto regenerate a new one with the default settings.

Also, incase it helps my fps is locked to 60 and turning shadow quality down will certainly help. Lowe quality shadows, smaller textures loaded.

For shadow quality do you use Low or High?  And can you clarify what setting you use for ragdolls, since it's a specific number/unlimited.

Sadly I don't have any old cpus or gpus laying around but It doesn't crash as often as it did so I guess it's fine, expect that porn pop-ups are everyone on this site :(
