zoom into a gravitic system like "SOL" build some station there , like I have and the game freezes for a second every minute and when it try to autosave, or you click something, when it just wants to freeze again ... thats it FROZEN forever

BUT YES "NO CTD" :mrgreen:

performance, always hit terrible, when that green flashes shows up on the screen ...

even when you are nit near a nebula, the game freezes for a second, but a lot fewer, as if you are inside of such nebula ...

so they are s h i t :shock: :D

BUT YES "NO CTD" :mrgreen:

and the worse thing, no crash log or anything to find the bug , as it just freezes ... but only the game, not Windows, so I just could close it !

I crash over and over, I've reduced the autosave to 1 minute, because that is just how random it is, sometimes I crash as I load and unpause, sometimes I crash after 10 minutes.

It's all the Device Removed problem in the 402 (401 if you don't include session.txt) error logs I had pre. 1.0.2.7, .7 and .8 doesn't create crash logs anymore, so my last one was my last load during a 1.0.2.6 game.

It being that many files, I didn't actually open every single one, but every single one I've opened has been device removed crashes.

I only had 4 crash logs (1 a day at most) before they started patching, then things went to hell. 65 crash logs the first day after update, because the game progress as the crash time is random, so I keep getting a little bit future in the save ever time.

I still have not crashed since 1.0.2.8 was posted. I will say that the game can pause at points where it used to crash (like zooming in) and I hold my breath when it does, but it hasn't crashed.

I still have frequent crashes.

I think most of them happen when I change the zoom level.

I experience most crashes either when DW2 runs in the Background or when I am in the Ship Designer.

somehow i think 1.0.2.8 runs more "smothly"... like when you rotate the ship in the ship designer and zooming in/out on galaxy map and all...
