Computer problem

[yum-forum]

With PF via Steam I have a problem:

When exit game (in "story" or "exchange") on stage "jumping" no changes on screen for 5-10 min. I have to restart computer every single game. What it can be? With CW1, CW2 and CW3 (not via Steam) no problem at all.
Please, help me!  :)

Try reinstalling.

Also, give us some more details about your computer.

It may be that what you see is an issue with Steam Cloud Synchronization.

You can turn it off (Google for specifics) or you can set Steam to play in offline more. It may not update the game when Virgil push updates, but it may fix what you see.

Yes. Exactly this problem.
After increasing video adapter memory became more bad: game (in "story") became crash (files in attachment).

Disable the steam overlay and see if that helps.  The steam overlay uses graphics memory...
That would also be a difference between the full game and the demo (the demo wasn't on steam).

Sorry for questions.
How "Disable the steam overlay"?
Is it possible play PF directly not via Steam?

I installed version 1.0 (not via Steam), apgraded 2 times videoadapter. Became much more better,
but after 1-2 hour playing game crash or if I exit game - no response of computer. It was 3 times.
One of error log in attachment.

P.S. Again after finishing map and time submittig (exit to menu) computer stoped (no responce) on stage of "jumping". No logs in this case.

New problem (perhaps related previous one):
when I work in editor about 1 hour and exit to menu on stage "jumping" PF program became "no response" and I have to close it and start again. It was till now 5-6 times and no error log files.

Even if no specific errors occur, there is *always* a log file. Next time, locate it and upload it here before you restart Particle fleet.  In the mean time, save often! :)

Also, download and install Piriform Speccy. Post a screenshot of the overview (summary) page.

Sorry, how (where)  to locate log file?

It should be in your "Steamlibrary\steamapps\common\particle fleet emergence\particlefleet_data Directory.

File name is output_log and should have the current data and close to current time.

Right above your post. Stickied, highlighted. Includes locations for Steam and non-Steam.
