OOM after subscribing to several mod using Steam overlayout

[Der Failer]

I just subscribed to several mod in the Steam ingame overlay, after a few the game suddenly froze. Taskmanager show 3.6 MB ram usage.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Mod menu
2. Open Steam overlay using the "Open Steam Workshop"
3. Subscribe to a Mod.
    -> Modlist refeshes and Ram usage goes up.
4. Repeat after step 2.
    -> After some repeats the game freezes because it is out of memory

I have a rather large list of mods (ca. 200), a shorter list seems to work as well, but it will take longer (just to clarify none where active).

In my tests i always got this error after the game froze.

Code Select Expand

d3d: failed to create 2D texture id=5305 w=637 h=358 mips=1 d3dfmt=21 [out of memory]


Update:
Further testing shows that simply opening the mod menu and closing it again (without changing anything) leads to similar increase in ram usage, but results in a CTD.

We're working on memory usage, but with enough mods you will always crash the game. In any case, thanks for the report, I'll add it to our info on OOM errors.
