I know crashes are the nrom...but im carshing a lot, wat am I missing?
« on: June 28, 2010, 01:28:02 AM »
Im crashing about twice a board...PPCs seem to be one culprit.  The crashes wouldnt be so bad, but my rank is not being saved frequently...so Im reverting back to a starter mech when Heavies and Assualts are becoming the norm.  It seems many are not experiencing the crashes, or are at least getting their rank saved for when they log back in.

I got the most recent drivers for everything, but Im still crashing freqently...is there a tip guide somewhere that Im missing that could resolve a lot of these crashes?

Unfortunately, there is no solution like the one you ask for  :'(.

The ranks being lost on rejoin, i believe, is a bug, but i cant be sure.

Sorry i couldnt be more helpful, but remember that playing on the debug server will help the devs with the new hotfix, which is designed to fix these issues.

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

weapon impacts seems to be a culprit, weither its the sound of the impact, the registering of the damage or what...but I cant count how many times I pop someone and CTD.

it also seems "Clearcut" hates me, I can get in, but I crash once or twice and then can never get back in again..in fact, I CTD just after the loading screen for the map completes...sometimes Im able to press "M" to choose my side...but frequently it crashes just before that screen comes up.

Tried troubleshooting?

most of those Ive tried, but I'll try the laser and clearcut fixes...maybe even the sound in and out fix.

The latest ATI drivers have an issue with Crysis in general (so I hear) if you are on the latest ATI drivers (IE have an ATI card) go back one generation of drivers and see if that helps.

I hate Aircraft in this game, if I die from one, I leave.  I wish I could just fire back at them from a Mech.

tried the sound limit of 128...it seems Im a bit more stable, but I have new symptoms.

It seems that the game wants to crash, but it doesnt.  The screen goes black, but the sound continues to play...my monitor is in fact turning off/or not getting vid card input for a second or so.

I now get partially stuck in the ground on occasion...how about waist height.  My mech did it first, it looked like I was above ground, but i couldnt move(I guess my legs were in the rocks).  Apparently it was enough of me showing externally for some one to see me and kill me though.  Right before the kill shot, I ejected, and was partially stuck in the mech( i never shot up into the sky like a normal ejection).  Once again, I couldnt move...i died right on top of my mech.

At spawn in I was still half way stuck in the floor, suicide didnt help...then I CTDed...came back, everything was normal.  got the sound but black screen for a second a bit later on in the match again, but I didnt CTD.   Later on, I died, spawned in and was stuck halfway in the floor again.
 
I'll keep updating through the night.


**UPDATE**
I was typing this last post as i waited for the last remaining minute of the match to end while stuck in the floor...The game froze...apparently, if Im stuck in the ground too long, I CTD or freeze or something.

The newest Geforce drivers, 257.21, seem much more stable so far. I have only had a few hours to test them so far, so we'll see...

If you are losing video signal to your monitor, then it's not Crysis/MWLL. Either Currupted or damaged drivers, or some hardware fault.

No more video loss...but Im noticing that the game either timesout/CTDs or closes when Im just sitting in the multiplayer lobby...and if Im just sitting at the Title screen after loading up the game.

Is it a timeout or is there something wrong causing this game to just turn off after a period of time

I know Im waking up a thread, but I thought I'd share something I discovered in regard to CTD's on my system.

In a previous thread on performance in Marshes I think it was, someone posted a link to the CCC ver 3 Optimiser and I installed it using dual core with 2GB RAM and 9600GT as the setting (I actually have a core i5-750 (quad), 4GB RAM and a 9600GT). IMHO, it didn't look quite as pretty as before (which was; all high, no AA, 1600x900), but FPS were a little better.

CTD's which were an uncommon thing, suddenly became quite common.

Today I deleted the autoexec.cfg file that CCC used to uninstall it and magically, I haven't crashed since.

I don't know if this helps you, but it certainly did help me.
