Hello!

 

Here i will be guiding you through how to supply our Dev's with as much info as we can give them to help resolve issue's.

This guide can be used for any other game aswell since its information supplied outside of the game.

(You can supply this information on top of ingame Error codes so Dev's have all the resources you can supply to them)

 

1. Dxdiag

 

A guide for this has already been made Here.

Dxdiag supplies the information about your PC.

Drivers and there versions.

Connected Devices and many other small details that could be significant to finding a fix or a cause to your issue.

 

2. Windows Event Viewer

 

Windows Event Viewer (W.E.V.) Is a feature in windows that logs all information good or bad.

Note: its required that you know what time and date the crash happened in order to supply the correct information.

 

To find this open your start search and type: eventvwr.msc

Once opened click the Event Viewer (Local) in the top left.

 

In the "Summary of Administrative Events" panel you can see how many events have been made in certain time periods, Last hour, 24 Hours and 7 Days.

(ProTip: you can minimise the other center panels by clicking the small arrow to the right.)

 

Now click the + boxes to the left of Critical, Error and Warning to expand the event list.

Events made after an hour would be in the 24 Hour section and 7 Days section but not in the Last hour section.

Some events are in the 24 Hours section but not in the Last hour section because the event is older than a hour.

 

When you start browsing for the events that happened at the time of the crash you can click an event and be sent to the Summary page events.

 

If the event did not occur on that time you can click the blue back button on the top left.

 

Once you find the relevent event/s (there can be more than one event log for a game crash)

Right click the event, select copy and click "Copy Details as Text".

Then go to your browser and open a topic for Technical Issues or Bug Reports.

Explain the details of your issue and click the brown spoiler icon on the top left when you wish to post the details of the events.

 

Like so:
