"Lockdown" Error Code 38 data gathering.
#62

I don't think it's the resolution change as such, because when you're changing channel you don't change resolution (and the initial error 38 dc is at cc), but it might be something that the client does when connecting to a server, but only at the higher resolutions.
Or maybe it only happens when the window takes up a bigger chunk of memory, which perhaps was not accounted for somewhere. Hmmm...

The error code 38, by definition, triggers when the game tries to lead something that doesn't exist, I believe. Or something like that, feel free to prove me wrong. My guess, with that in mind, is that some line of code tricks the game into loading something corrupted, but if you bypass it by switching resolutions and freezing it, the game goes on without rendering the images, and therefore not loading the corrupted chunk. I'm not into the technical terms, but it's what it seems most likely at this point.

Since this is VERY helpful, I'll try to catch someone on live chat whenever I can. This should be helpful to the devs, and might even save them some time, so the sooner the better... Tickets aren't fast enough. With some luck they could be reading this very sentence at some point.
