And... what is it that you're doing that causes it to stop responding in the first place...?

It doesn't matter. Any process that would lag the game for a few seconds (normally occurring in the higher levels of the DooM games). I don't mind the lag, crashes, or not responding (esp when I use mods, as I know these can cause problems) , but having to log off just to get the process to end is a problem.

Hope this helps :D.
if not, please let me know

Finding the cause to why the process crashes can be very hard. I've experienced this too, and it started happening to me around version 2.1 or 2.1.2.

The thing is, I hardly think this is fixable. Something in one of the updates causes a behaviour at crash that makes the process temporarily unable to terminate. Locating the exact cause will, as previously mentioned, be hard.

I experience this now and then, and the thing is that you don't have to log off (at least I never have had to). End the process via the task manager, wait, and it should terminate at most within a few minutes.


EDIT:
By the way my game usually crashes like this at startup, so I'm unsure if it's the exact same problem.

D3X1K AXYZ, did 2.1.2 behave differently?

Since there was no feedback for more than four months and I can't reproduce the problem, I'm closing this. Feel free to reopen this ticket by providing feedback.

UPDATE: Zandronum 3.0-alpha-170205-2117 has fixed the issue.
I wish I could just update the issue details instead of reopening this whole issue just to say it has been fixed in the new version and can be closed. I had forgotten about this thread otherwise this could have been closed much sooner.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
