Problem with Skirmish or CnCNet
Subject description: Always crashes the game
Hi guys,
I'm playing DTA for years now but me and my friend still encounter errors while playing.
We always play the map Death Valley with 6 Extreme AI and 2 human players.
The game mostly crashes while we are in-game.
We tried LAN, Skirmish and CnCNet.
Our pc's are both i5's with 8 GB RAM.
Also both pc's hava a 1050Ti GPU.
I don't how what precisely went wrong, but here the error logs.
EXCEPT_5_3_2019_21_29.TXT: Something to do with freeing memory, possibly memory that was used up by a team.
EXCEPT_14_2_2019_21_44.TXT: A crash when trying to free memory used by a building (free function called from BuildingClass destructor).
From testing we know that Extreme AI can sometimes crash the game, most likely because of programming mistakes made by Westwood. Sadly, we can only suggest trying different settings. Try playing without Extreme AI.
Okay, but if we turn Extreme AI off, we can win the game like little kids.
Mostly, with Extreme AI on, we play one match in 2~4 hrs.
Do you have a tip to achieve the same amount of gametime but without crashing the game?
Or does the game crashes come from a lack of RAM or Virtual RAM?

Use default settings (no fast resource growth, 10 000 money etc.) and 6 regular Hard AIs will most likely crush you.

We often play regular 4v4s against the AI using default settings and those usually last from a bit under an hour to about 2 hours. When we win, that is; sometimes we get killed in 10 minutes. Only a few games ever have lasted 4 hours though, so that's a stretch.
