RagnarDa Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Bug description: Crashes frequently in multiplayer games as client. Happens a few minutes into the game and when it has happened once I can no longer connect to any servers as the game crashes when connecting (as soon as the slot selection menu should appear). Haven't noticed anything particular that triggers the crash but single player seems OK so far (I bought BS2 yesterday). Restarting the comp gets me another few minutes of playing time. Steps to reproduce / Conditions of occurence ... PC Configuration Pentium D 820 2.8Ghz (Not overclocked) Dell 0HJ054 Motherboard with i945P/PL/G/GZ chipset 4GB DDR2 RAM Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT Driver version 296.10 (latest) Regular DVD-R Cable modem 10 Mbit Saitek X35T/X36F HOTAS Windows XP Home Edition SP3 DirectX 9.0c Attachments I didn't find any crash-logs. Where are they? Couldn't start multiplayer with --console either, but singleplayer works with that. Edited March 21, 2012 by RagnarDa DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.
MemphisBelle Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) Windows XP Home Edition SP3 is that 32 or 64 Bit? try the hacks provided in the Signature of that guy Edited March 17, 2012 by MemphisBelle 1 BlackSharkDen | BSD Discord | DCS Tutorial Collection
RagnarDa Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 I run 32-bit. Seems like the /3GB trick did it (or a fresh install of DX9.0c i don't know). Thanks a lot! :thumbup: DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.

RagnarDa Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 Turns out that its quite not OK yet. Now it crashes 5-10 min into the game. Sometimes straight to desktop, sometimes crash-dialog ("JIT-debugger not installed"). Can still rejoin the game after a crash though. My bet it has something to do with my shaky internet-connection, I got disconnected once. Will look into it, but otherwise any help will be appreciated. DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs.

sobek Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 My bet it has something to do with my shaky internet-connection It is much more likely that it is the same problem as before, but the application takes longer to run out of memory. It is highly advisable that you switch to a 64bit operating system so you can use the 64bit executeable. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
MemphisBelle Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 My bet it has something to do with my shaky internet-connection, I got disconnected once. What do you understand by shaky? Does the speed goes up and down quite a lot, or do you fight with persistand reconnects and disconnects? EDIT: It is much more likely that it is the same problem as before, but the application takes longer to run out of memory. It is highly advisable that you switch to a 64bit operating system so you can use the 64bit executeable. I agree to this very much. That should actually fix all your issues so far. Win7 64Bit is not that much expensive anymore BlackSharkDen | BSD Discord | DCS Tutorial Collection
RagnarDa Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 Installing 64-bit Windows seems to have solved the problem. Thanks guys! DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.
