Hi everyone,

My game freezes approx every 30 seconds for 1 to 5 minutes.
I tried to put down the graphic settings but it does not have an effect.

Does someone have an idea if this problem can be solved?
Which information can I provide to support a solution?

Posted: **Fri Apr 15, 2016 1:53 pm**

OS version and system info (CPU, Memory, GPU) would be a start.
You could also upload your log file, and disable any mods (if you installed any).

You can start with a logfile, your pc specs.
Additionnal info that may be revelant :
- savegame + mod folder
- a screenshot with debug info onscreen (F5)

When you remove the mods (just rename the folder) and load the save, does it still happen?
If no, pls upload the mod-folder.

Edit: You might want to update to 12.30 first, you can do that by opting in the beta.

I updated to 12.30.

The problem disappears when the mods are not used.
I ran through my base for 15 minutes until it was taken by the aliens.

Another test with activated mods brought back the problem.

I uploaded my mod-folder and my savegame.

Posted: **Sun Apr 17, 2016 12:49 pm**

The reason for the problem seems to be the misantrophe mod.
I deactivated the mod and was able to play an hour without a freezing.

Maybe I will try a more actual version of this mod.
