Every time I get a ctd and the crypticerror kicks in it gives an error code and an incident number , but I have been unable to find any reference to what these error numbers relate to and don't seem to have ever had any 2 numbers the same
the last 6 error codes I have got are 816, 1852 ,3816, 4900, 2324, 2116.
Is there a list anywhere of what these numbers mean?
and before anyone says I need to send the whole dump to cryptic its just a no go as it would take over an hour and cripple my internet connection every time the game crashes which can be 10 times in a day.
and again to pre empt any comments my machine can run prime 95 all day without any errors can stay cool running furmark for several hours and laughs at any burn in application I run on it.
my graphics card is geforce 285 Windoze 7 pro 64 my net connection is a solid 10mbit/0.5mbit
The ticket ID is a reference that you can send to Cryptic so they can investigate. File a tech support ticket, including those IDs, and they'll look into it.
If you don't upload the crash dump, they might not be able to do anything.
Well the reason I don't upload the large crash dumps is well they are large and are usually 750 mb or so each so if on an average of 10 crashes a day that's 10 hours or so uploading which on the plus side means fewer crashes due to not being able to play because my internet is capped
So I take it from the zero response to my question that the error codes are a cryptic secret and only they have access to them.
As of yesterday the crash dump incident numbers have passed the 1.5 million mark that's a lot of captured errors , perhaps its about time for them to employ some more people to look at these instead of pumping out more and more broken content. :eek:
It's not really a secret, it's just a number that identifies the crash dump you uploaded - so that Cryptic can look it up and tell you what caused the crash. It doesn't have any real meaning beyond that.

Update: actually it's dead easy to test that. Yes, it's the process ID. Completely uninteresting unless you're debugging crypticerror itself.
