Unresponsive after alt-tabbing [NOT A BUG]

[Jens Lyn IV]

ATS became unresponsive after alt-tabbing out of the game. I can't reproduce it, but it's never happened to me with a stable version so I'm reporting what I can just in case. Log file is filled to the brim; no game.crash.txt was generated when I manually killed the process.

IIRC, I had just completed a quick job in California and leveled up to 11 before the game froze. Not much to go on, I know...

game.log.txt (with most instances of the repeating error removed), end of log below:

Code: Select all

Again, I would say not a bug.

You are running extremely old drivers. 441.87 versus current driver version of 516.59. Update your drivers and try again. Install the drivers by using the checkbox for "perform as a clean installation."

Also try setting these to 0 in your config file

00:00:00.745 : uset cf_asus_aura "1"
00:00:00.745 : uset cf_razer_chroma "1"

Happens to me sometimes as well.

Ew is that RGB stuff? Definitely turning those off...

Did that solve the problem for you @Jens Lyn IV ?

Difficult to say with any certainty. This only happened once in over a week of testing the beta, and I've since returned to 1.44.

Most games, not just ATS, don't take Alt-Tabbing well in my experience. I recommend you avoid it, if possible, especially if you can use the steam overlay to get what you need done.
