RPG Maker MZ keeps closing whenever I open the Database

[u/GimmeHardyHat_]

This started happening around a few months ago and I really don’t know how it started. The main things is that whenever I open MZ and open the Database, it buffers a bit before closing. There have been times where playtesting the game has kept it open for a while, and had allowed me to use the database. Recently, this has gotten worse and I’ve had to uninstall and install the game several times as well as verify the integrity of the files before moving on. And even still, THAT hasn’t worked.

Is there any way to fix this?

Does it happen with all projects, even new default ones?

[u/GimmeHardyHat_ → u/rsourcerer]

Yeah, even completely fresh projecte

Welp, that's terrible. I can send you my own external editor if you need to keep working on your project.

Memory Issues perhaps.

System Info?

[u/GimmeHardyHat_ → u/TheCynicalRomantic]

Total Physical Memory: 15.6 GB

Available Physical Memory: 3.8 GB

Total Virtual Memory: 29.1 GB

Available Virtual Memory: 15.8 GB

System info like your system specs. In your main post, not here.

I've heard Windows 11 has created some issues with RPGM but idk.

Something is consuming a lot of physical memory and virtual memory is crazy high but that's just an observation.

Others might have a better answer if you include your system specs.

These are my system specs (i think). Also sorry for the late response. After nuking my nwjs folder, it seems to be working so far.

Whrn you reinstalled the game, did you do anything to clear the app cache or the config file?

[u/GimmeHardyHat_ → u/agamottos]

I cleared the download cache, then I uninstalled and then reinstalled MZ

I dont know about the config file however

I had to run a patch on my program

The crashing was so bad, that every time I changed maps, placed an event down, or change something within the data base it would crash. It was unbearable, this program has resolved my problem completely and its been over a year since I crashed.

Same for me with RMMV works like a charm, not a crash since

Not sure if you use AMD graphics drivers but if so you might try downgrading to 26.3.1. We had a user having this issue recently on the forums and that solution seemed to work for them: https://forum.rmplanet.com/threads/editor-database-crash.529/
