Trial Freezes

[Travis | Support Mgr.]

Emulators are not supported, so that doesn't surprise me.

Hi,

I tried the same via BlueStacks 5/Google Play installation and it did the same. Stopped responding a second after boss died.

[Travis | Support Mgr.]

Thanks, I'll share these event log entries with the team.

Hi,

Steam updated the game to version 1.26.40 recently.

There are 3 messages every time the app hangs:

Assuming you updated to the latest versions and still experience the crash. What is your eventlog showing when the crash occurs?

[AAAF]

Is there anything that i could do? It is becoming really annoying issue and prevents me from participating in events or anything. The game doesn't generate any crashlog or anything. Just pretty much empty file:

CRASH LOG:

One thing I noticed is that when killing the process in task manager it renames the process from "MageAndMinions.exe" to "s3e application launcher (32 bit)". I tried to run the application as an administrator and in compatibility mode of other windows versions.

[Travis | Support Mgr.]

It's not an option on the Steam version (it is on MS).

[AAAF]

Hi,

Nothing like that in the menu. I guess I have the "not available" version.

[Bryan James]

Right above Framerate toggle, IF available.

[AAAF]

Hi,

Reduced View Distance to 99, 0% 3d Creature Limit, Ambiance and Weather off, Terrain Resolution Medium, Pulsating Inventory off, Floating Numbers off, Gestures off, Framerate off. Rest is on and still crashed.

I do not seem to be able to locate the multi-core support. Could you please point me to it?

[Travis | Support Mgr.]

Hmm...have you tried reducing the view distance and turning multi-core support on? Your laptop should be able to handle Eternium just fine, but these changes may help identify possible causes for the crashes.

[AAAF]

Hi,

I have tried all of the steps, reset the game, deleted folders etc. It did not help. Steam version failed on the very first Trial run, Microsoft Store version succeeded on first run and froze on second. It happens right when the boss dies and the loot flies out and it happens when it would unlock more than just the next stage. Looking at task manager, the game is still doing something, it's jumping between 7 and 12% CPU. No Disk/Network activity and Very High Power Usage.

Have you tried following the troubleshooting steps listed at https://forum.makingfun.com/forum/et...-your-problem?

[AAAF]

Hi,

I am experiencing Trial Freezes pretty much all the time. When I defeat the final boss and rewards are supposed to start flying in they don't. The game just freezes and has to be killed and some of the progress doesn't save. From what I observe it usually happens when I clear Trial that would unlock new stages of trial. Never happened when I was clearing lower level Trial that didn't unlock anything. Doesn't happen on Android Phone. This happens both in the ANB event and outside of it.
