Crash on start up
Ok so my game was working fine a couple days ago. Now Mass effect 3 crashes right after checking downloaded content Peculiar things about the crash: - eacoreserver .exe doesn't seem to be startin...
So, i dunno who needs to hear this.
New install on a new computer, a few friends of mine were reminiscing over old ME3 days. I could do absolutely nothing to fix this, i looked through this thread and one other. I noticed that i actually had no folder in My Documents. I figured, given my hard drive is partitioned it might perhaps have installed somewhere else? Nothing.
Ultimately, i had to go into Game Properties in Origin, go to Cloud Saves, and restore a local backup to essentially make the game realize it didn't have one.
The downside of this is that I have no ME3 save files anymore. This isn't a big deal to me as they were all at least 4 years old, but it fixed my problem with the CtD, so. Here it is.
Here this will works. He just described the problem well and fixes the bug. Even if it is not a problem of dlc itself, it also helps https://answers.ea.com/t5/Mass-Effect-3/Retaliation-DLC-Crash/td-p/354722/page/3
I'll just add a few sentences from myself: If you use ALOT or other Project Variety 3 mods install them first then this patch.
