ARe you still experiencing this issue on 1.6.0?

No, I'm confident that it was my GPU in the process of dying that was the issue.

What is the new GPU you have? QA team tried to reproduce the crash with the save you provided but it did not crash with a Nvidia 970 GPU sadly.

My new GPU is a Nvidia GTX 1660 Super, but as I said, I think my old 970 was just dying anyway.

UPDATE: Ok, so I decided to upgrade my old PSU from 500 to a 600W but unfortunately this didn't resolve the issue. A couple of days after this my GPU just flat out died so I guess we might know what the problem was. So, I ended up getting a new GPU (not a simple matter these days with the global shortage of semiconductors and what not, let me tell ya) and so far it looks like that has solved the issue.

UPDATE: I ended up doing a clean reinstall of my graphics drivers and that helped for two days, didn't encounter any crashes no matter how long I was playing but today about 5 minutes ago I again encountered the same crash although instead of a gray screen it was olive green. I did the blind accept of creating the crash dump again and this time there were quite a few more files inside the newest crash folder (I believe one of the files is the save file too so I think that'll be helpful). I compressed them all into a .rar file and uploaded it to upload.taleworlds.com and attached my username and a link to this thread.

If you can't upload it to upload.taleworlds.com you can upload it to somewhere else. As long as we got the file.

Ok, I uploaded the .rar file in the upload.taleworlds.com and added my username and a link to this thread in the description box

Thanks for the update. Should I resolve this issue?

Click to expand...

I guess you can, haven't had crashes. If the same issue reappears I guess I can open a new thread and refer to this thread?

Tried playing a couple of hours today with the new patch for the main branch (1.5.8.) and didn't experience any crashing so, that's at least a good sign.

I did the Time Spy benchmark and the results said 'Great' with a score of 3240 out of a best of 4291 and an average of 3606. However, it doesn't give any information on PSU usage.

Crash logs did not start because of the freeze. It looks like a GPU crash. But the freeze is probably hardware related. What is your PSU?

EVGA 500 Watts

What is the contents of this folder? What do you see there?

Just the folders 'logs' and 'Shaders' Here is an imgur screencap of the folder and the view settings of it to show that there is no hidden folder there

IT would be great if we were able to see the crash dump. Is the game freezing every time?

Click to expand...

Yes, so far it hasn't crashed without freezing the PC. I guess I could try let it crash and just leave it frozen on the offchance that it unfreezes and maybe then it would create the crash dump?

MArdA TaleWorlds said:

Do you remember doing anything in particular that might have frozen the game? Any ideas of replication?

Click to expand...

I get the impression that it crashes once it reaches a certain number of simulated events, so NPC army fighting another etc. Because if I play normally doing battles and such I can play longer than the 15 minutes it takes to crash just standing around with fast forward enabled.

Only things I can think of that it never crashed in battle or while walking around town/tavern/village or in the menus so only on the map screen. I can't completely recall but I think I was always speeding up time when it crashed. But nothing else in particular. Once I was just standing still, waiting for a sieging army to move, another time I was chasing an army, once I was travelling from Ocs Hall to Charas and it crashed around the midpoint and once I was just standing next to a friendly city just to see if it would crash on the start of day 366 of the campaign. It did crash but right after as I tried to replicate it, I decided to change my display from fullscreen to windowed and it no longer crashed on the start of day 366. I changed it back to fullscreen afterwards and it crashed maybe an hour later. That's about all I can tell you, sorry.

EDIT: I'll try and see if it crashes on Windowed mode as well. If it does then we could at least rule out that it's not dependent on that at least, right? Also, it always asks if I want to launch the game in Safe Mode because it crashed in the previous session and I've tried it with launching in safe mode and not but both ways have resulted in a crash.

EDIT2: Sure enough, it crashed in Windowed mode too after about 15 minutes of standing still outside of Sargot at Fast Forward.

Are there any folders in the hidden folder,
C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\crashes
To go there, copy and paste the above in the search bar.

Click to expand...

The 'crashes' folder isn't there. I'm assuming it's only created once a crash report is produced? I made sure that the option to show hidden folders was on and even if I copied the address to the file explorer it just says that Windows can't find said path.
