  The issue is reproduced in v1.0.37895, the allocated memory grows very fast, in my case the error/crash usually happens when opening dialogs with traveling merchants.
  
  It is easy to reproduce the issue if the swap file is disabled, the crashes rather quickly even if there is enough free RAM.

  Hi,
  Could you upload your DxDiag.
  It would help us investigate this issue further

  Hi Maks,
  
  Could you tell us more about your issue? For example:
  In which tomb the bug is happening?
  Is the bear in your team or an ennemy?
  
  Also, if you could provide a save, it would help us investigate this issue further.
  
  Thank you!
  
  Have a nice day.

  It's a memory leak it's easily reproducible. Just play for a long enough time to fill the RAM.

  Have played for 160+ hours without too many crashes. After update v.1.0.37895 I get this error message after 5-30 minutes of playing:
  
  Fatal Error
  Out of Memory (pages)
  E:\Projects\zdev-archibe\hashlink3\src\gc.c(410)
  
  ...and I don't even have an E-drive...

  Fatal Error
  Out of Memory (pages)
  E:\Projects\zdev-archive\hashlink3\src\gc.c(410)
  
  after I experienced 50 blackscreen bugs... i finally got this out of memory error :D
  
  I got this after entering a town. (german name "Braunfels")
  Also interesting i have no E partition.
  
  I played this game over 400 hours in alpha and release and never experienced so many bugs years later after buying all dlcs... :(
  Alpha was more enjoyable then the game in this state today.

  I got a critical error for the second time. Previously, there were no problems with the game for two years...

  Getting the same error here after the update, im guessing some kind of memory leak.

  I've logged more than 600 hours in this game, it my favorite. I never had any problem with it, until the last update., I got the "Out of Memory" message a couple of times, and the game crashed. Now the game seems to have slowed, with button presses almost not possible. It does not crash, but is effectively unplayable. Turning off V-sync or lowering graphics setting changes nothing...

  I'm having same problem with the VRAM and RAM usage on my system with RX6600 with 8 GB of VRAM and 16 GB of RAM. When I start the game, it uses about 2600 MB of VRAM and 6 GB of RAM. After an hour of gameplay, the VRAM gets fully, and the RAM usage goes up to 10 GB. The FPS drops from 45-50 to 8-12, and in combat, it can go as low as 5-6 FPS.I have to restart the game to solve this.

  This bug still happens in 24. I thought it would be fixed in the two years I haven't played. Every couple of hours the game crashes, it's just awful.

  Previous to installing the Belarion and Skelmar DLC I had 600+ hours invested. The game always had bugs, but they were cleared up over time. Recently I started playing again after about a year. I logged about 40hrs with zero problems before receiving the DLC for Christmas. Now, with DLC installed, it crashes every time I play more than 2 or 3 hours. Same problems and error messages as all the above posts. Starting to regret investing more into this game. You have a promising product here that I used to really enjoy. Please fix it ASAP!

  Typically between the 30mn and 1h mark I start seeing a 256 byte long pattern repeat in memory: 64 zero bytes followed by 192 0xFF bytes, almost always followed by another instance of this pattern.
  
  Play session A: 1h30 long, had about 1.5Gb full of the pattern. Wartales' memory commit size was about 11Gb.
  Play session B: about 2h long, had about 4Gb full of the pattern. Commit size was about 18Gb.
  Play session C: >2h but I did not measure, had 7.5Gb full of the pattern (30 million instances !). Commit size was about 25Gb.
  Usually play sessions start at 4Gb commit size.
  
  I don't think that's the bulk of the memory leak, looks like ~30% of it, but that's a start.

  Oh so glad this isn't just me. Happens whenever I play for several hours. Never happened before I got the newest DLC but I also hadn't played in a good bit prior so can't say for sure that's related to the issue.

  Hello,
  sorry for my not so perfect English, I'm from Austria. Unfortunately, I can't quite meet the conditions you specified above to report this bug. It is neither explicitly reproducible nor can I take a picture of the bug. I play WARTALES (purchased via Steam, only play via Steam) on my Windows 10 computer, graphics card = Radeon RX 6700 with 8 GB, PCU = i7 8 core, 16 threats and RAM = 16 GB. Unfortunately, when the game has to load a map (battle map), a building interior or the camp, it crashes regularly. This happens very differently, i.e. sometimes it freezes when almost everything is already displayed or it freezes when you can't see anything at all except the interface. The screen simply freezes. The only way to get out of it is to use the task manager and brutally abort the game via the taskmenu. Then restart it. Everything then works as normal again. The bug usually appears after about 4 hours and then it takes +/- the same time until it happens again.

  Next time the issue happens, can you look at RAM commit size (Commit Größe/Ladung) in the task manager?
  Don't rely on working set (Arbeitssatz) since it doesn't count what's in the page file.
  (You might have to right click on the column header->select columns to see commit size)
  
  The game has a memory leak, to simplify it means the RAM consumption goes up when it loads stuff, but the game forgets to unload stuff so RAM consumption never goes down. On my end the game uses about 20Gb after 2h, so it could use 40Gb RAM after 4h.
  
  You have 16Gb RAM and by default Windows allows the page file to grow up to 3x RAM size, so you should be able to use up to 64Gb of memory. So in theory you should still be "fine" after 4h if you are still using the default pagefile setting, but these are coarse estimates, and you have other programs running, so this theory might be worth checking anyway.

  Same error as above. 250 hours in, no problems, and then arrived in Grinberg and constant error. Happens whenever I go from one screen (exploring) to another screen (entering a shop or battle). Not 100% guaranteed to happen every time, but will happen within 30 minutes of gameplay, and sometimes as soon as 2 minutes. I have nothing on Drive E, it has been wiped. Please fix as a priority. Game is now unplayable. I was looking forward to purchasing the DLC, but no point in this unplayable state.

  Same error here.
  I use a Ryzen 5 5600X, RTX3036 12GB and 32 GB of RAM, on Windows 10.
  
  Last time this error occured I had just finished up the main story in Tiltren, and was about to finish up the hunter mission in Tiltren before leaving the region.
  
  The game crashed when I followed the blood trail and engaged the pack. So the game crashed when loading the battle.
  I had just over 7h hours into the save file (7h08m i believe). When trying to reload the save (Ironman) I see in the windows task manager on my second screen how the game eats up increasing amounts of RAM while loading the game, until it reach 99% and I get the 'Out of Memory' exception.
  
  I have the base game and the Skelmar Invasion DLC.

  The game crashes after 1.5-2.5 hours of gameplay With the ' Out of memory (pages)' error.
  Windows 10 x64.
  
  I am certain it's the inner games memory management faikure inside the HashLink VM.

  Its still happening after Beast DLC release and patches in 2025.
  
  Now im getting an issue report 'Out of memory crash, unable to locate Shirotools'.
  
  If u do a search, Apache Shirotools is an open source security framework.
