CRASH - ME3 LE Eden Prime
My LE ME3 keeps crashing on Eden prime, just as i walk past the dig site view to the elevator i lag completely and crash(the sound keeps playing and the app is still running but i crash to de...
Everytime I launch this mission, the games crashes. I don't have any previous saves as I have relied on autosave and I'm 10 hours in to the game.
I have already tried deleting the config folder, reinstalling drivers etc. First time in 60h playing these three games this has happend.
It has nothing to do with your pc - it is a knowen bug from dlc release which EA doesnt seemse to care
- make sure to disable any programs that influence your GPU - like msi afterburner or any other overclocking
- then RUN through the mission until the lift and con with liara
- make sure to save after every cutscene - just in case
- make sure just in case to spam the command screen (shift) and/or ESC after every conversation
- after that DO NOT watch the memory with the opening sequence first (forward after the first battle)
- DO watch the signal memory first (right after the first battle) then go back and watch the other one
In the case of this problem happening again after any cutscene (for me in the cerberus HQ) then do the steps with turning off GPU programms and the spamming thing again 😉
I tried turning off MSI AB.
The crash now even occurs when in the shuttle, before the mission starts on the planet even. So I cannot run through it.
Sorry for the late replay.
Did you repaired the game?
(Origin > Game Library > right click MELE > Repair)
(Steam > Game Library > right click at MELE > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files.)
If yes, the driver for the ASUS Xonar Sound device is not digitally signed.
Can you test with a different sound device?
Hi, I tried verifying the files and disabling my sound card. it still crashes.
So I did revert to an older save and played through the rest of the game, didn't have a single crash after 25 hours, even Omega, Citadel and Leviathan DLC worked fine. Decided to just skip this Eden Prime DLC and watch a playthrough on youtube instead. I now however went to attack the Cerberus Headquarters mission. After all the cutscenes and the mission begins in the hangar, the game crashes similar to Eden Prime mission. So after putting down 85 hours on all three games combined (not a single crash in ME1 or ME2) now I cannot finish it. ☹️
Yeah that didnt work. What finally did it was to lower the resolution to 720 then I could finally play it.
This fixed the issue for me, thank you. At least I have been able to get past the first conversation at Eden Prime where you call the elevator and they discuss the stasis pod.
I opened MSI afterburner, used the profile to set the GPU overclock to 0, close MSI afterburner and now I can progress.
Absolutely bizarre issue and even more bizarre to see some of the advice from EA.
"This is not a game problem."
Only happens in ME3LE and not the other 2 games, nor a single other game in my library of hundreds.
It's definitely a game problem.
