Avadon shuts down when saving

As the title says, Avadon shuts down whenever I try to save. I just started a new game a few hours ago and saved a quit. I reload my game just fine and can do whatever I want in the game. As soon as I save over my previous save file, I get the box that says "are you sure..." I click the checkmark, my screen go black, and I am then at my desktop. Same happens when I try to save to a new save slot.

 

I have talked with Redbeard for the first time and am at the point where I am to talk with the blacksmith and the other guy to get supplies. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

This is a bad copypasta of my previous tech support post

That's something unexpected, well, as usual, really, from unusual font sizes and things that don't respond well.

 

The basic workaround there is usually by making a fresh install of the game, uninstall the whole series>defrag registry (optional)>reinstall it.

 

After reinstalling it, it could, by a chance, work fine, if not, change your compatibility settings to Windows XP SP3

Right-click the shortcut>Properties>Compatibility then tick the box> Win XP SP3 or SP2, Vista would also work I think lol, just tinker around the settings.

 

That's all I could say, I'm not a very techy guy, I could solve basic problems only. You could tell me details regarding this issue if there were any changes according to my suggestions.

A very practical solution, if that might be the answer.

 

I would also suggest adding some more details/specs...

Well, it's one hard problem to track down, but I tried harder to search for a solution.

I just scanned the page quickly, and some people reported that it no longer crashes when you disable the cloud syncing stuff.

 

Or if you want the keywords I typed, it's this:

 

steam games closing randomly

 

Search it up on Google until you can find your solution, while I (might) do the same.

Wow. Thanks for looking that up. I tried some Google searches for about 10 minutes, but to no avail. I uninstalled and reinstalled through Steam. I also made it "run as an administrator" always and set it to compatibility with XP SP3. That seemed to solve my problem.

 

Well, glad to be of help. Just a tip:

 

If you ever want to play some modern games or 2013-2014 games, I would recommend turning off the compatibility mode as some do not run properly.

 

Have fun.
