Game crash back to desktop in Play Now mode.

Sat Sep 28, 2019 7:59 am

Since yesterday evening the game always crashes in Play Now mode. Have tried everything: Reinstalled, checked Steam Files for errors, removed all mods etc. My hardware is more then good enough for the game. All other gamemodes running smoothly, MyTeam ,My Leauge etc. But when I want to play Play Now, the game crashes directly.Anyone has an idea how to fix this ? I allready wrote a support ticket but dunno how long 2K needs to answer.Probably a year :mrgreen:

Have you used cheat engine for anything? Like unlocking new teams?

Try this.

Go to 2KU, and select scrimmage. Choose two current teams you havnt played with before, go into the game. Exit the scrimmage, followed by going into quick play.

See if that works. I know it sounds silly. But give it a try.

HI,

I'm having the same issue too I only have Limnono tool 1.04 english version installed and a few cyber face mods.

I tried entering a play now mode with all mods removed and a clean re-install but neither has worked. I am able to play games in myleague, myteam and mycareer. But nothing in play now works it just crashes as soon as you try clicking a game mode (quick play, wnba, 2KU etc).

I tried that scrimmage thing you mentioned but wasn't able to get into that mode without it crashing. I wonder if other people are facing this issue as it only started happening on the 28th.

I also put in a ticket too lol

Did you guys make sure to remove ALL the plugins related to modding? Meaning the extensions for the Limnono modifier (.dlls, etc), and extra folders that the mods added, etc?

That's strange how this game effects some systems differently than others. I had the same problem with 2K19, always crashed to the point I stopped playing it. 2K20 has ran like a breeze, with no crashes on my system. Hope you find a solution.

OK i figured it out.

When i re-installed the game I didn't clock that the waigua folder was still in the directory. So i removed mods one by one and found out that it was the egs-mllr (chinese mods) that kept crashing play now modes. I'm not sure why but must be something to do with loading the renders for these modded players.

Well, I found a weird way to solve my problem. Enter Play Now, play a "WNBA" game, jump back to main menu, and it's all good when I select "NBA" in Play Now.
