In-Game Testing For Crashes - Please Help!

Lukas Berger · 03-13-2025, 04:24 AM

Hi all,

We've had a few reports of seemingly random crashes while playing out games in 3d. These are extremely difficult for us to reproduce and thus to fix.

So we wanted to ask if you could help us out here, please try to play as many games in 3d as possible with debug turned on. You can find how to do that here.

Then if you get a crash while playing out a game, please upload the log file here along with as much info as you can remember on what happened just before the crash, what the last play was, if it was a change of innings, change of pitchers etc.

Thanks so much for any help you can provide, we really appreciate it!

It's possible this is related to pitching changes or something more in the mid-late innings, so probably would be best to focus there.

But that's just an educated guess based on the info we have so far, not a certainty.

Also, if you had an in-game crash, do you remember what ballpark it was in?

My 2 crashes were Baltimore at Toronto. Season opening series. No changes in pitching etc. Both were in 3rd/4th inning or near there. it went back to my desktop without any error message.
This morning i was able to play a full game.
As always...THANKS

We're hopeful we figured out the cause of this.

I noticed that "TRACE MODE" was enabled.

I've found this during OOTP 25 as well. I can't use any of the historical stadium downloads from the forums while playing out historical games. .It almost always crashes. And alway in the ninth inning, weirdly enough. Once I assign the 3D stadiums that come with OOTP, the crashing stops.

It sounds like this is on modded stadiums, so unfortunately not something we can really control or fix. Any mods are 'use at your own risk', we really have no way to somehow debug or fix any issues with mods.

Typed this up, and could not attach due to file size. How can I send you a crash log that is too large to attach through forums. Remember I am Computer illiterate too.
