i dont think so. we had had this reports of advanced wars crashing from before and i doubt each and every one of them are agents of shield

if you want beta access, then check the thread 'beta testing' on how to join. tellme your email so i can approve it once email request is sent to me.

Ok, I have an idea it might be playing it in full screen mode causing the crash. I was going to do some more back & forth but now trying adjust full screen mode in any game with beta 2.2 is crashing on me. It happens as soon as I attempt to "go back" after adjusting full screen mode to make it slightly smaller. It then flashes Drastic has stopped.

it may just be beta specific but will inform lordus once i checked it myelf

UPDATE: I tried what you did and well...it didnt crash. i made the screen smaller thrice and it didnt crash as well...

Yeah resizing full screen worked %100 for me on the official release on every game I tried. I have about 20 plus titles that I'm trying out & playing currently. On a side note, it looks as if Golden Sun:Dark Dawn is playable now??

yes. but you may encounter sound degrading to nothing but static (not sure about latest beta. i fully finished it on build 25 where the audio crapped). theres still slowdowns like in 3d heavy places (th first town comes to mind... carveers place i think).

Damn, I was hoping you could reproduce it. It happens 100% for me every time. Is there anything special I needed to do after updating to beta? Should I have deleted my old release first or anything. The reason I ask is when it crashes it flashes twice that Drastic has stopped working.

dunno... i dun have pricey stuff like ipad or shield. my test unit is a chinatab (pipo m3) dual core cortex a9 clocked at 1.6 gigs.

no need to edit. but can you check your settings? it might be something with it that causes the crash. post whats your setting and lets see.
