Title: CTD Issue
Post by: Waffle on April 13, 2005, 01:30:23 AM
Had this happen 2x in a row...


Augered a damaged plane on feild, choose a panzer spawnd "H" and CTD'd, which left a blue screen (same color as an Empty AH world) over my wallpaper.

Rebooted, did same - augered a  damaged plane on feild 61, clicked "H" to spawn from hanger - CTD  with same blue screen.

Flew in a damaged 190A5, missing one ailoron and some holes in the wing.
About 8 miles off my base with 8mins of fuel left on my way home.
Suddenly i find myself on the desktop, no warning nothing and no error message. No idea of the cause.

Only crash i had in about 4 hours of playing.

Had CTD when I selected a p38g and went on the runway.

Tried to duplicate but used default skin and no problem?

Was low on the deck in 190F8 over enemy airfield. Looked back and immediatly locked up and CTD'd.

Also, now when I try to go into 1280x960 resolution it always crashes at startup. Forced to use 1024x768.

AMD-64 3400+, 6600GT, 1.5GB RAM.

Makarov9:From the desk top check if your card suports 1280x960, if it does not, you could edit your video8.cfg file to be 1280X1024 which was the old size.

I was wondering about the screen size issue in video set up....

1024x768, ect... all widescreen format.  Was looking for 1280x1024..



One issue not sure if connected to the CTD or a symptom, ect...

Is when Vox recieved or transmitted and I'm using the hat for views - sometime the views will "lock" or freeze for a bit. Doesnt seem to do it unless there is something on vox.

Had a CTD while unconscious with pilot wound.  I was in a fight, so I could have gotten the CTD as I was being killed.

EDIT: was flying C205.  1600x1200 resolution.  1024 textures.  NV6800 GT.  Before the CTD I saw the big black walls (field gun texture?) that other people have reported.  But the walls went away before the CTD occurred.   Lots of stuttering right before big black walls appeared.

At A61 had 3x CTD's and many UDP losses, CTD's were prior to any UDP loss though.

All the CTD's happened after my Hurri 2D was shot down, and I just clicked the NE runway button, then bam, right to desktop.

Found the CTD, It has to do with field gunners, and is the same bug causeing the strange polygones around the fields.

(fixed for next patch)

also had ctd issues since patch.

get an error in app "aceshigh.exe"

I'll edit this post tonite with exact ctd extended debug nfo. Seems to happen more around bases but has also happened in other places. I havent had a thread drop as described in other posts here (no error) I always get an error report and my debugger pops up.

I've only had the black box issue twice but have had the lock up issue twice where a recycle was neccesary. Normal ctds about 8 times in 15 hours.

Am using 1280X960 (will edit to go back to 1280x1024 since its native to my lcd. 1024cache, hi def, all sliders left everything BUT sparkly water on.

last patch capped @ 60fps 59-60 all the time

this patch, 35 1000+ range worse the closer you  get until total krawp in super zoom, (3-4 fps) gunning in turrets.:confused:
