Dom3 Crashing

[Warhammer]

I have had issues with Dom3 crashing on my laptop when the Dom3 window is minimized or alt-tabbed out of. Any ideas what is causing it?

[Gregstrom]

Nope - it happens to me too.

These notes appear on the Dom3 updates progress page but have not yet been released in a new patch.

19th august 2009
* New resolution 1024*576 (for netbooks).

17th july 2009
* New resolution 1024*600 (for netbooks).

* Dominions could crash when changing video preferences, fixed

Does that help at all?

[Warhammer]

Yes and no. Trid changing the graphics to correspond to standard resolution and it still crashes when alt-tabbing.

Also, it does not crash when alt-tabbing with my desktop. With changes to my work schedule, trying to get it up and running on my laptop.

No, that's a different problem, it could be related though. When somebody tries setting a new resolution through the main menu then Dom3 can crash, some others are suffering from that. The only way to change the resolution is through a command line parameter.

What Warhammer describes sounds like an issue with the graphics renderer.
