Problem with DAO shutting down
Hi. Several games of DA in and all of them, at some point, shut off. Just suddenly back to my desktop. One character in Denerim on my way to nick Ser Nancine's sword and the other straight after the ...

@ThandalNLyman have a ton of mods installed. When i reinstalled the game i put them back one by one and there seemed to be no problem. They all seem to quit at different points in the game. Did you want a list? =)
@sunwisecircles; A few questions:
1. Is one of your mods "Improved Atmosphere"? If so, I'd look to that one as the main culprit. It's a great mod, but it doesn't play well with others, and especially doesn't play well in Denerim. Unfortunately, just uninstalling it doesn't necessarily solve things because certain changes it makes get "baked-in" to your saves. (Another reason to either use it exclusively, or not use it at all. I chose the latter.)
2. Does the crashing stop if you have NO mods? If so, maybe it's a conflict between one-or-more and your system's config (hardware or software.)
3. Have you disabled the "Origin Overlay" in-game? There's an item in your DXdiag report that it crashed, and it serves no real purpose for DAO anyway.
[EDIT: Fixed types.]
- @ThandalNLyman wow. playing dao without improved atmosphere. that's gonna be wild. origin overlay, always turning that damned thing off. OK, will give this a try. And thanks ThandalNLyman, you have helped me before in here and I appreciate it.
- @sunwisecircles OK. The game crashed once while I was in the camp. I simply rebooted and instead of going into the tent, I left the area and all was good. I haven't always had that option. But so far, and many saves later, so good.
