While you have 16 gig of memory and a 32 gig swap file, you are crashing due to 'out of memory' errors. 

Ideally you need to up your physical memory. But you can try increasing your swap file size, close any unneeded programs, etc

I think this game needs optimization with RAMs... How many gibs eating this game? Whats your prefer size for page file?

Out of curiosity, were you on a server that allowed external views?  Has you been using external views?

Yes, allowed. I used couple of time.

Just as a test, if you aren't ready to buy more mem, you might try not going to external views and see if you have less of a problem.

I was testing something on a MP server I am working on and I was using a lot of external view and memory was going crazy.  Since I disabled external view, I hadn't seen that occur.

That's not proof of anything, but might be worth a try.

I'll try tonight thanks for advice. If so it's definitely worth turning off the external view.

Well only the mission designed can turn off external views, but I was suggesting just not using them.

 

I can't prove it, but I was suspecting it was kicking off a different kind of texture caching once you start jumping around in external view.

This is interesting. I very rarely use external views and I seem to remain free of crashes.
