Hi,
I am pretty new to this mod and am currently really enjoying it. I have also installed it on my laptop for my mum to play but she keeps experiencing an error which I can't seem to find a fix for.
The error - "A fatal Access Violation has occurred in Application-steam-x64.exe and the game cannot continue."
It saves a crash dump to the banished folder but when I open it with notepad++, it just shows a load of weird symbols that doesn't make any sense.
I have found similar errors around the net but nothing that says exactly what she has been experiencing. I have tried the following to fix the issue but so far nothing has worked.
- Change the Regedit VideoInterface to 0
- Uninstalled and reinstalled the mod and the game several times.
- Forced the game to load in DirectX9
- Played the game without any internet and disabled anti-virus. - This one worked for a bit longer than other times and a colleague of mine said this fixed it for him.
- Loaded game without Steam
- I have one more thing I haven't tried yet. Sometimes when she launches the game through steam or just via the .exe she has another launch window that sometime's opened. It doesn't seem to have a pattern as to when it will show up. I have read that this could also cause a problem and to turn it off but unfortunately, it's not something I can test. On this window, she can select whether to run the game in DX9 or 11 and a few other things.
Laptop Specs:
HP Envy
I7-4710MQ CPU @2.5GHz
NVidia Geforce GTX 840M with Intel HD4600 integrated graphics
12GB RAM
Thanks,
