Anyone else having a problem whereby the game infrequently crashes to desktop? It doesn't happen that often, twice in the time I have played it (around 5 hours or so), but just enough to be irritating. Otherwise the game works perfectly.
It seems to happen randomly, and both times the screen suddenly flashes black. There is text at the center of the screen, using the ingame font, but before it is readable the game quits to desktop, it says something like "you have encountered..." and its a couple of lines. It doesn't seem to be a standard crash as its not flagging up Win 7's standard inbuilt crash reporting, it simply seems to be auto-quitting the game. Which seems odd. The crash appears when I am running around in missions.
I am running on Windows 7 x64.

Okay, now it's getting annoying. It barely crashed before, but I just can't get through the last mission of the light campaign.

I'll try to set affinity to 1 core, and if that doesn't work, I'll contact GOG support and leave the game for later, if ever.

EDIT: Either that did the trick, or I got lucky. I will see as the dark campaign goes on.

I have same problem here.
I think crash is happen under certain circumstance. When I execute the game and play
any mission for the first time, there is no sudden crash.
But If I replay that mission, crash happens.
And it often happens when I beat the enemy or when the monsters coming out. :(

I didn't have time to make more tests, but try setting the game's affinity to 1 core. You can use the program Stuff has indicated, or you can, every time you open the game, minimize and do it in windows process manager.

Thanks to your suggestion, Random crashes never happens during today. :)

Thank you again.
