Outerra crashing
« on: February 23, 2013, 04:32:37 am »

Outerra keeps crashing. Since version 3514 I think. Sometimes after a while. Sometimes after a few minutes.

I don't see any crash report from you, how/when does it crash? Does it bring up the crash reporter dialog?

Looks like a driver bug then. GPU overheating or PSU problems.

But also this, from your log:
INFO: Some foreign modules were found injected into outerra.exe. Note that these modules can interfere with the rendering, causing black screen or rendering artifacts. It's advised either to stop the programs or unload them.
The following potentially problematic modules were found:
I:\@_Programme\@_Internet\FritzBOX\sarah.dll (AVM Berlin, AVM Products), version 3.09.07.2001
I:\@_Programme\@_Internet\FritzBOX\block.dll (AVM Berlin, AVM Products), version 3.09.07.2001

Let me know if removing the FritzBOX helped with the issue. We might have to block its way of hooking into OT.

I removed the Block.dll and now it is more stable.

I've made ​​some Tests.
If I delete the Sarah.dll Outerra dosen´t start anymore. So at the moment I'm out of the Block.dll and Sarah.dll on and so Outerra freezes after about half an Hour.

Outerra certainly doesn't depend on sarah.dll :)
Why don't you uninstall the FritzBox, whatever it is?

Certainly, but that Software is important for my Internet Connection. Fritzbox is the Name of my Modem.
