Problem with Tagma map (blue arena)
« on: July 14, 2008, 09:19:43 AM »
Not sure if it is a problem with the map, or a problem on my end, but this is the only map I have the problem with.

Occasionally on loading up, my computer completely freezes entering the blue arena with this map. I get to the point where the clipboard is visible and the radio buffer appears. Then it locks up completely and I have to give the computer a power reset. Happend to me twice now, and the only way to fix it, is to delete the map files themselves, to have them redownloaded upon entering.

Strange problem, I know, but I did not have this problem with any other maps over the past 8 months, and since this is a new map recently implemented, I am inclined to think the problem is in the map somehow.

Anyone else have this problem, and an idea what causes it?

You might want to delete your AHII cache files, ALL of em, and ONLY them, and let AH do a total rebuild of em all.

If the start up of AH stops at the same place every time that may indicate a corrupted cache file......

Had something similar, noticed it always stopped on the tiger file, did the above and that cured it!

I get this every now and again but it never does it twice in a row.

Hard power reset only way to get out of it.  (not just the new map)

I've had this happen many times on different maps.  After finding that if I went to the TA then quit and went to the MA, it would never freeze.  I set my sound accelleration to 75% instead of 100% and problem went away. 
Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time
