I loaded the new patch and it crashes as soon as I click on Main Arena.
It seems like several other people have had this same problem. Skuzzy had an update to update sound drivers. I tried that with no luck.
Has anybody had this problem and then found a solution?
-
I'm (http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=141426&referrerid=3787) crashing too after entering the online arena.
-
I CTD as soon as I click on OFFLINE, or ONLINE/Main.
I tried rebooting.
I tried updating my sound card.
I *do* believe I saw an installation error (debris.wav).
Perhaps I should try reinstalling.
What a pain in the ass.
-
Same happened to me, and I also got the "missing" debris.wav message.
-
It's the same for me. During the patching, I got an error message that debris.wav couldn't be opened. After the patch I started AH and watched the Preload Tex Memory with all the .tca files.
Then I get a crash to desktop before it completes. Watching it over again it's always the same 3 files in the update that kick me: WLDCYMP_512.TCA, WXTREP12_512.TCA, and XTC1_512.TCA.
Theres a thread in Tech Support about this too.
-
I downloaded the .EXE file from the website and have ended by CTD problem.
Now I'm just suffering from micro-hangs.
So far, I'm not a big fan of this patch.
-
Patch didn't crash, but I do get the "missing" debris.wav message at the end of the install. I ran it a second time and got the same thing.

check this thread and see if it helps - theres a link to download a debris.wav file to see if it helps.

You guys who received that message, were you updating from 2.01 p6 or 2.02?

I was trying update from 2.01 patch 6 to 2.02 patch 1 using
http://downloads.hitechcreations.com/AH2016T2021.EXE
I get the debris.wav upgrade error.
My guess is that debris.wav came with 2.02 and now patch1 is trying to upgrade it....but 2.01 ppl don't have it.
-
Ok, thanks. I'll go see if I can replicate it and see what's going on.
-
Came from 2.01 patch 6.

i think everything went fine, but i did download the new "debris" sound and its different than the one i currently have.:confused:
-
probably nothing but a squaddie of mine had a similar problem.
he changed his firewall settings and it worked fine.
maybe run a check to see if firewalls are blocking certain updates?
i had problems with the new lightnings and the film viewer. trying full reinstall from scratch now to see if it helps.
-
OK, UPDATE.
fresh reinstall of AH2 from scratch did the trick.
but it was not the problem.
as i loaded my old files in one by one i realised it was the old gunsights on waffle's expansion that made the P38s crash.
go into your gunsights options in the hanger and set them as something else, it will work fine after.
the film viewer is still porked for me.
does it have anything to do with AGP apeture size?
-
hmm....
interesting - certain p38 sight? or all of em?
That the current updated sight package? I'm having no problems here with it...
-
neg, it was your old one, havnt got round to the update.
as i think about it, it might not have been related to your pack at all :o
i re-checked and the sights that made it crash for me were 'default' and if i remember correctly i edited them.
i belive the new patch has updated the gunsight graphics to a new code?
maybe my old ones made in paintshop were the problem.
sorry for the misconception waffle, wasnt a bash, i love your expansions.
i did have trouble with your osti sight a month ago, which made me think it was the expansion that caused the problem.
S!
