[lack info] 3.8.0 beta1, Wnidows 8 (64-bit): Weird Random Crash

[-Archmage-]

Windows 8 64bit, MG 3.8.0 Beta1.

I was playing tech from Megapack and I had a group of various infantry selected(which I had added to a group with Ctrl+1) and I told them to attack and they didn't. I tried to move them and every time I right-clicked the screen for them to move somewhere it glitched very fast, almost not noticable. I right clicked all over the screen waiting for something to happen and it froze and crashed.

Idk if this was graphics card related, if so my graphics card is the AMD Radeon HD 7970m.

Are you able to reproduce this? If so, please run the game from a command and make it run into the same situation again. You should then get more info as to what went wrong available there. This and more is also discussed on the FAQ - please have a look.

In case you have general issues with graphics (you say "it glitches"), please also try the workarounds discussed there, you may have a bad driver.

Please be sure to always post game version and platform in the subject line (I just did this for you) and to provide all hardware details as requested on http://bugs.megaglest.org

Thanks.

I wasn't able to recreate the crash. :\

Hi all!
You can fix this issue just by installing the newest drivers from the official page (ex: Nvidia, ATI, Intel) and not from microssoft. Microsoft is more likely to break openGL.

I solved my problem this way.
