Repeated Crashes 3/4/2024

same with me

If your game is crashing after like 1 min after you join a battle try this.

Go to your war thunder folder and in War Thunder\win32 right click on the aces.exe, go to properties then compatibility and check “Run this program in compatibility mode” and on the drop down menu select windows 7, apply, ok and then run the aces.exe in the win32 folder, it will ask you to run the launcher press no and then another pop up will appear press ok, then log in and done.

This fixed the problem for me, hope that gaijin will fix it tho.

No go for me. Tried for both win32 and 64

does not work. just gives errors befoer entering the game

Actually, I set both to compatibility mode but only ran the 64bit exe. Running the 32 bit exe works so far.
Thanks again!

You may want to check the above post and see how you go.

Be sure to check if it carries the fix over after it’s reverted if someone dares.

Thank you, it worked for me, amazing!

This helps me too, I have been experiencing silent crashes 1 min into battle in production client after installing the dev server client by copying and modifying the production game files in a new folder.

Same problem. Maybe next update will fix this? Or it needs an issue report

So next time if I have to run the game again, do i have to go to win32 again or start normally thorugh steam?

Well…

I suspect thermal throttling of GPU.

Maybe it’s time for Gaijin to re-examine the minimum PC sphecs…

Also, can Gaijin please feed the hamters?

Thanks

I just tried and I can’t get it to run in Compatability mode in win32, only in win64, it gives me options for Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vesta.

Graphics are noticeably worse on my GTX960 with this last patch, before crashing.

Yeah I think it is the GPU that’s being throttled thermally, it’s extremely hot and there’s no way for me to cool it down.

This worked for me for now, Thank you! Win11 is easier to use the right-click method to get the file properties and choose the previous Windows version for compatibility rather than the built-in troubleshooter.

I apllied the compatibility settings eithe on win32 and win64 and it is still crashing after 1 minute or so.

The game was running smoothly in this notebook before today.

Are you running the game from the launcher?
Run the ACES.exe in the win32 folder. It will complain that it is not supported, but just click through the messages.

made a issue report, has closed and they say has fixed, now is worse, i cant even load the game sometimes and the match last 30 seconds

Can confirm that the regular launcher with work-in-progress works.

Thank you to all who spoke and made the issue known.

gave that a try, didn’t seem to work for me unfortunately.

was worth the try though, so thanks for the idea.
