Re: Bad_module_info

Thanks for taking a look into this @EA_Blueberry 

Wanted to add a comment here to maybe get more information from anyone else following this thread as well. 

Hi folks - I've been trying to get to the bottom of the bad_module_info crashes, which are the crashes where the game randomly quits with no error as if you pressed alt+F4. If you were to go into Event Viewer and check the Application events you will find a bad_module_info error logged at the precise moment the game crashed.

 

Anyways I just discovered that every single bad_module_info log in Event Viewer is preceded by two Microsoft Windows security auditing events (Event ID: 4624 and Event ID: 4672) that happen exactly 1 second before the game crashes.

 

Can someone else experiencing the bad_module_info errors check to see if they have the same security events showing up? This event will be logged under Event Viewer > Windows Logs > Security and will show up as Event ID: 4624 and Event ID: 4672 and the timestamp should be a second before the bad_module_info error

 

In my case it looks like there is a Logon Process: Advapi (which is a Windows OS dll file) that is occurring exactly one second before the bad_module_info game crash, so my theory is that whatever windows service that is accessing the Advanced API dll file is what is causing the crash.

 

Here is an example:
