Hello Everyone,


I decided to restart that game in order to understand why so many people from the RPG community love it.

I start to understand now with the choices you can make and your relation with the other characters.

I managed to look past the basic aspect of combat and the limited classes (Fighter, rogue and wizard).


The only thing I CANNOT possibly look past is the obnoxious constant crashing in game.

It started with the loading saves: the game would crash when loading saves and back to desktop.
Now it seems that whenever I kill one of those bandits (in Loithering, the first villagen in the North of the village, it's a quest) the game crashes
(As if the computer were overwhelmed by the almighty power of Dragon Age groundbreaking graphics *cough cough*).

(Jokes aside, I do enjoy the finishing moves).

My laptop is an GP73 Leopard 8RE MSI, I7 8th gen, GTX 1060. What could go wrong?

I also enabled very high graphics quality and Anti-crenelage (x8), I run the game with the affinity of one CPU
in task manager as it was one possible solution as seen in other threads.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

Thank you in advance for your replies.

Hi there. I've also experienced the same crashing issue as you, as well as the annoying texture flickering even after running the game with one CPU as suggested by other players

Then I found a thread on Steam which offered a solution. I initially didn't use it since I thought it was only for Steam bought games but I eventually tried it out due to frustration and... lo & behold! It worked! I've never experienced a single crash or texture flickering issues since then (and I didn't even run the one CPU core)

Give it a try, and hope it works for you too: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=233222451

All you literally need to do is just download the .exe patch and move it to the bin_ship folder (instructions are in the link provided). I backup the original file before I replaced it with the patched version though - highly suggest you guys to do the same

You can play it through Galaxy, if you disable the in game overlay.

Ok thanks but overlay means updates( saves on cloud etc) so for example i can turn it off play and then to update my game status turn it on again? after finising game?

Looks like the GOG team has actually fixed the problem now, with the update that the app wanted to do this morning for me.

Once I installed dragon age flicker removal on the nexus page. I have not had any issues with crashing.
i just ran into this issue. It crashes every time now, even after verifying files. WTF...
