9.13 minimap not updating correctly, followed by complete system crash


Recommended Posts

Posted

Game worked fine before the latest game update. I have no idea if the cause is the game update or the Aslain update, as I did them at the same time.

 

Symptoms:

  • Minimap stops working correctly. Vehicles on the other side of the map are spotted and move around correctly; vehicles near my tank are not spotted, don't move, and don't show up
  • There are a few short "gaps" in the game, where I can still see my screen but nothing moves, not even my mouse
  • About a minute later, if I'm still in game, the game crashes. Complete crash - CTRL+ALT+DEL and ALT+F4 etc don't work. I have to hard power off my machine and restart
  • Video card stats are hot, but nowhere near crash-level hot

 

System:

  • Windows7
  • MSI R7950 Twin Frozr Radeon HD 7950 3GB PCI Express
  • Stable PCU/system otherwise

Attempts to fix:

  • Updated to latest Radeon drivers
  • Windows Update for critical updates
  • Reinstalled World of Tanks
  • Updated to latest Aslain version
  • Tried other games (unable to reproduce)
  • Tried same game on shitty laptop (works fine but fps stinks)

My next steps:

  • Play many games without Aslain's mods (OUCH!) and if I can replicate in plain vanilla, send replays to WOT

 

What I'm asking:

  • Is any of this "known issue" type stuff since the last patch?

Hi

 

My standard answer is that your system is cluttered.

So a cleaning software and a good defrag might do it.

 

Good general advice. My system defrags every week and all drives are at 0%. I format frequently and check all my running processes weekly. There is no clutter on my system.

 

I'm 95% sure it's either a problem with one of Aslain's minimap mods, a problem with World of Tanks itself, or a hardware glitch in my video card. Just trying to see if anyone else out there has seen a similar issue (which would rule out hardware glitch on my video card).

 

Thanks,

RJ

Hi

 

Ok, check if you chose right XVM-settings in installer, some 

might overwrite or conflict.

Also some testing software should quickly tell you if any hardware 

is faulting.

Also some softwares like Advanced Systemcare could help.
