Strange, I haven't CTD even once, but I never drive GVs so ... ?

I've been having random CTD's since Friday night, never had one before in AH I or AH II with my current rig.

Getting really annoying, losing kills, perks etc.

Also wearing very thin on my squad as well, many are very unhappy.

That's understandable. Are you guys running anything "customized", like Mitzu's sound pack or anything? I'm running AH2 "stock" until it gets a bit more mature.

Nah, I think everyone is running AH II as is. I don't think any of them used much in the way of add ons even in AH I. I haven't even used Mitsu's sound pack since I came back in February when I built this box.

Strange that some ppl are having nothing but trouble while others have none whatsoever. AH2 is completely flawless on my puter, the only bug I can remember seeing was the loadout reset bug in the hangar.

Also got one CTD this evening after several hours of flying/driving- my first with AH2, so not exactly a common occurrence for me.  Occurred in heavy furball, but I do not believe I augered or was hit (was checking my six).  {That last sentence shows my age: in ancient times of Confirmed Kill CTDs were sometimes associated with augers or deaths}

I have a radeon 9800.  Memory usage creeps up to just over 90MB used at which time I will CTD.  The text buffer goes blank just before the CTD occurs.

I also got my first CTDs last night. Saw Hitech's comment in the other post- curious, one of mine was while in bombers, rest were when i clicked the takeoff buttons.

sys specs:
amd xp 2400
512mb pc 2700
256mb fx 5200 agp, omega 53.03 drivers
asus a7n8x-x mobo
sb pci 128 sound card
40gig hdd
winders xp pro

fwiw, i built this system over the winter, and its been mostly trouble free through beta. i just started getting ctd's since the last patch, and i haven't been flying buffs until lately, either.

Several of us have noticed a slow leak in video card memory useage.   Use the frame rate window (Control i) and pay attention to the memory used portion.   In my case, it starts anywhere from 55 to 70 Megs, and slowly increases.  When it hits 90 plus Megs used, things get wacky, leading to CTDs.  (Pre-curser warning may come in the form of loss of text buffer, etc).   As you play, watch for this increase.   See where you have problems, and please report back here.
