Crash to Desktop
« on: September 02, 2026, 06:53:37 PM »
Well, the game ran last night.  I tried to get on today.
The game loads, goes to arena.  The game page pulls up, all looks normal, the map switches, it's all red then crashes to desktop.
Ideas?

I just logged on to check it, every thing ran fine. Check your ah3terr folder in Ace High, look for the fjordma.res file. Some players missing downloading map changes. Don't know why. Let me know if you don't fins it, I'll send you a copy of mine.  :aok

Step against my own grain

It might be best for players to DL all maps from the change terrains game menu. Any current updates should be there too.

Just a thought

It did it again!

Yes I found the fjord.res.

I just don't understand why certain maps, make it crash to desktop.

Some locations have difficulty connecting to the HTC download server, use a VPN and download the map and you'll be fine.

Delete that map, then go to the download page in the game and download a fresh copy of that map. Maybe yours got corrupted.

How do you tell which map it is?  It crashes before I can get to the upper top right of map.

next time it crashes post here asking which map is up. One of us should be able to catch which one is up then and let you know here.

Worked with Dale on this...  The solution was to reload my NVIDA drivers.. RTX3060

Thanks for the help! :D
