New Patch Has Crashed My Game 6 Times.

The best thing about this patch, hands down, is the complementary crash errors that don't even give you error messages. The game was not crashing like this yesterday, so obviously something in the new patch is screwed up.

Anyone else having issues or is this just something added to make the Masked Carnivale exponentially more aggravating?

SOLVED

Thanks for the advice. I believe the problem is corrected now.

In b4 someone tells you to take a break if you don't like it. xD

update graphics driver
/sfc scannow
reboot PC

If not, reinstall game.

If not gg.

Well I guess I don't have a choice do I. Considering the game is crashing every 15-20 minutes. >_<

I'm sorry you're having this issue. At the risk of sounding like a copy-paste robot, have you upgraded your GPU's drives recently? Radeon just had an update a couple days ago. I'm not sure how's Green Camp doing these days though. Also, remember doing a reset of your PC every two days or so. I've been online all day without issues, so I'm trying to think of what could be making your PC act up. Hope you can solve your problem!

If you are running any external programs that could affect the game, or graphics alterations, or overlays, try closing those.

As others have mentioned, you might need to reinstall the game. Unfortunately, games that patch (any game) can corrupt due to packet loss from downloads.

I haven't heard anyone complain about having a similar issue so it could be a corrupt file.

Before doing a full reinstall, try using the launcher repair tool. Click on the Config icon in the upper right then scroll down to Restore Game Data.

That is pretty easy to prevent with checksums though. If the game doesn't check that then it's surprising.

There are some good suggestions in this thread, especially from Ath192, and you may also want to post on the Technical Support forums about the issue. I checked over there to see if anyone else was reporting this and I didn't see anything mentioned so it doesn't seem to be widespread. But you may find others having the same issues and can identify some sort of pattern or commonality that might help.
