I don't think it's my graphics, currently i'm running catalyst 4.12 drivers on my radeon 9800 pro, but I have run lockon with versions back to 4.3, but it was since I went from SP1 to SP2 that i've had this problem. Oh and for the last test I tried, the crash dialog still referenced the msvcrt.dll file with the version 2600.2180, not the version of th file in the Lo-Mac dir.

No fix unfortunately.

As far as I'm concerned, you can't just learn one language and push on with it, you want to look at Delphi, C, Java, J2ME, C++, VB as well as scripting languages such as that of the Linux BASH shell and C shell, only then should you push on with one, or possibly two. An object oriented laguage is, obviously, the only type worth considering however.

I tried both of those suggestions Dmut, System File Checker did not find any discrepancies and altering the compatibility mode did not solve the problem either. What precisely happens is, the loading screen appears, the loading bar makes it to the far right of the screen, but then the image turns black for approx 2 seconds and then I get the crash message. I can supply the technical (i.e. the exception thrown) information if that is any help?

Yes I have done a reinstall, and patched to v 1.02. This was indeed the first thing I tried, it didn't provide a solution.

Yes, it is always a certainty it will crash during the launch of a campaign, it occasionaly happens when I launch a single mission, and has once happened during a quicklaunch. You may want to take a look at this thread at sim HQ with people suffering from the same and very similar problems: http://www.simhq.com/simhq3/sims/boards/bbs/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=37;t=006014 I have tried swapping the various msvcrt.dll files with different versions but it has not solved the problem. I would appreciate any help you could give. It seems a fair few people are experiencing this. It appears to be the runtime library causing these problems. If it is any help the version number for the file of most of these issues is msvcrt.dll 7.0.2600.2180 i.e. the one that comes with XP SP2. I may have ben able to solve this if I could replace the msvcrt.dll file in the system32 directory with the version in the lock On directory, however you cannot replace that file while it is in use, which is all the time.

Dmut, I was wondering if you could directly ask the devs on the Russian forum if they are aware of a solution for this? I havn't been able to play lock on for months now. You may remember my Russian isn't so good :)

Has anyone managed to fix the msvcrt.dll XP SP2 bug which causes the game to crash during the launch of campaigns? Have the developers fixed it in 1.1? Can the beta testers or developers post a fix on these forums for it? Can someone supply the campaigns as individual missions so this bug dosnt occur? Cheers.

Could someone possibly send me their campaign files, in the Missions/Campaigns folder? Cheers

Well it's not just the SU-25 campaign, it happens in the others too. It happens most often when i click the 'FLY' button it will crash, but it also freezes on the map screen also. Quickstart missions work fine, it's just seems to be campaign missions. Have the dev's found and fixed such a bug in 1.1?

Your hardware sound acceleration level can make a huge difference on gameplay smoothness. Try setting your sound acceleratin to off and see the difference it makes.

Doubtful I have had it working in the past, this first occured a couple of months back and I still havn't been able to fix it.

You can also get a strange rectangle come up on the A-10 hud in the lower left. I can't remember the key combo, but I did it when changing the bomb release or ripple interval. ctrl space or shift space or alt space or ctrl v or shift v or alt v or somthing.

Pretty much what the title says. I click fly to launch into the first campign mission, and Lo-Mac stops with a crash and a 'the memory could not be'read'' error. A reinstall dosn't solve it, any ideas?

I asked this question in the Russian section, and Chizh responded saying a change log will only be out upon release. He did confirm that weapon reload using Alt-J has been fixed.

Thank you for the quick response, it's good to finally see a definate answer, even if it is no! You can still be assured that ED will get my money, I enjoy Lock-On too much, hopefully we will see these fixed in a later patch/addon. Also thank you for the suggestion Dmut, I will be certain to ask on the English forum too.

Не могли бы разработчики сообщить зарубежным игрокам информацию касающуюся исправленых ошибок в версии 1.1 или Lock-On. А так же не могли бы они сообщить были ли исправлены следующие проблемы: 1. Перезаряжаются ли всё ещё внешние и внутренние вооружения при выходе-входе в самолёт с помощью Alt-J 2. Исправленна ли електро оптическая ошибка при которой самолёт иногда не мог зафиксировать цель в EOS режиме P.S. Этот запрос был переведён моим русским другом, поэтому я был бы очень благодарен если ответ будет на английском, но это не обязательно. Я бы спросил в английском форуме, но там не дождёшься ответа. Заранее благодарю,
