Larian Studios Forums Dragon Commander Dragon Commander - Beta Crashes on skirmish

Managed to play the campaign online for a bit with AIs, but as soon as it was time to battle, the game crashes. Same if I try to start a skirmish from the lobby, it just goes through the loading screen and then crashes.

Game runs smooth on max settings, but I also tried on medium and low, with different resolutions and it still crashes.

I'm on Windows 7 64bit, i5, 8 GB RAM and AMD Radeon HD 7700

All drives up to date, so not sure what's not getting along with the game. :\

Radeon HD 5800. Same problem since latest patch.

Same problem with Nvidia Geforce 9600 (XP) but I could play a little before.
Sorry Roy !

It's a CTD I'm getting

Same, goes through the loading screen, goes to the part where the screen goes black to bring up the in game map with all the structures and units and such and at that point it crashes to desktop.

I am having the exact same issue - two 5770HD's here. CTD when screen goes black to load battle map.

Any updates on this issue?

Apparently not locking the player slots fixes it. Well it did for me,(I guess) and a few others at least.

Oh no kidding? I never even thought to try that. I'll give it a go tonight - thanks for the tip!

Confirmed... I was randomly giving it another shot and quickly started a skirmish with 1 AI and did not lock any slots... game started fine and I was able to play! Works like a charm now.

That's fantastic news, thanks guys - can't wait to get home and give it a shot!

Happy to report that this worked for me as well!
