Game Crash (Loading Map While Minimized)

[NightHawk043]

Game was loading new map while minimised and crashed.
I'd minimised just as the game went into the lobby loading screen (the map loading screen to be precise) and had switched to firefox, and it sat there for a few seconds, then crashed.

Update: I was just loading up the game and I accidentally did a repeat, except this time I just minimised it to set up my teamspeak.
The moment I minimised, I got the "has stopped working" error.

Everytime I minimize while a new map is loading, I crash as well.

I just crash regardless of he game being minimized.

I just tried and was able to load map while minimized just fine.

Aaand crash on mission load without being minimized or tabbed out.

Gheist told me to do this.

game crashed just the same way, while minimized and loading a new map

Actually, Mabel did it: http://forums.legionsoverdrive.com/threads/procedure-for-game-crashes.498/

Please, read the stickies, they're there for a reason.

Just checking, is there a fix to this yet / is it in the works? I know to avoid it all I have to do is avoid minimising while it's loading a new map, but it still gets somewhat annoying.

I guess it would be updated by the Legions patcher if there is a fix

Post more logs by the way. It's sad to see that only that few people are actively helping and providing information about this problem which affects so many.

My game crashes most of the time I minimize it (at the loading screen AND in game, more while loading though). I try to no minimize it, bu sometimes I have to and just hope for the best (actually, a lot of times). I'd crash it on purpose right now to post a log if I wasn't at work; I'll definitely get to it tonight.

Ok this was me deliberately trying to crash it by minimising.
I had a slightly different result, in that by minimising the moment the connecting window came up and maximising straight away, it didn't have a problem. However, when I minimised again a second later, it did crash.
This is something that presumably has already been noticed, but the following section seems to always be the same, after an Win32Window: appEvent LoseFocus

Edit: just noticed this is what Gheist posted above.

This time I minimised fairly early and just left it minimised. It seemed to keep working for a few seconds, then crashed again.

Btw, do you want more logs from me? Or more specifically more logs from other people.

 

[NightHawk043]

Another.
Once again, just minimised early and kept it minimised.

Have something else to add. It allows me to minimise fine if the game is in windowed mode. The problem only happens when I'm in fullscreen.
Not sure if that helps.

Well, it'll definitely help me when I'm in game and I need to minimize! Go to window mode first.
