Memory Leak Found

Post » Mon May 14, 2012 12:35 pm

Game runs fine for me, except that during the tutorial it crashed. I took out my bow and arrows to shoot the bear and I had a ctd no warnings or anything. I went into device manager and found this application event error: http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh43/guineapigofdoom/memoryleak.png?t=1320995345
Note how on the bottom it indicates tes5.exe.

My game constantly crashes after trying the audio tweak mentioned in other threads. And yeah, it did crash before it decided to constantly crash.

Not very happy right now. Should have known better to spend money on an unfinished game.

disable all save functions and save manually. I did that and haven't had any problems with crashing or freezing. I am not sure which save function it is, I think it is the save every 15 mins. I just turned them all off. Haven't had any issues whatsoever.

That's the first thing I did. It still crashed for me. However, after I loaded my previous manual save I didn't have another crash.

Tried starting a new game, no luck there. I will try it and report back thanks.

Have to manually edit the ini file to try that fix. You cannot change the autosave settings unless you have loaded a level!

I didn't do anything with the ini. I am not sure what you mean " unless you loaded a level", I just went to the in game settings when I pressed start (because I am using a xbox controller right now until the PC controls are fixed) and selecting settings and unchecked all save options. There is I think 3 or 4 of them. I am pretty sure the one causing the problem is the "Save every 15 mins or whatever time you select. I think default is 15mins. I put the others back on and haven't had issues with those. I just started playing again so I haven't broke my 1 hours mark on my new try. I am just curious if its the new save feature they have. If you go to settings when you pause the game it's the very bottom one. I think you can select something like 15mins, 60mins. etc.. I am not saying that is the fix, but it did fix it for me. No freezes and not hang ups during game play. I also have no random crashes either like I previously did.


Another thing I want to add, I did use MSI afterburner because my GPU was climbing 71c and holding. That is hot and perhaps it was temperature related? I don't know, I can't really find the max temp. rating for this card. I don't think is the problem though. It could be, but I have been reading other people saying 71c isn't hot for this card so IDK.
