I've had it happen too. Before 1.10p1 came out.

I had randome CTD's in 1.09 then deleted and reloaded AH. Problem went away. It has happened just about every major version release for me for some time. I'm hoping the CTD's will stop after I redownload the game. It was a MAJOR problem for me after this version. As many as 4 CTD's in 15 minutes. :(

I lock up 2 or 3 times a day, sometimes more.
screen freezes, sound starts repeating and have to reset.
Those are in between the host dumps.

Had one lockup last night, dunno what caused it.

about once every 10-15 minutes, my aces high completely shuts down, no crash, no message, nothing, it just dissapears like it wasnt even loaded
-
I just crashed.
Was in a task group escort (destroyer?). I was in a gun and just pulled the trigger. CTD that moment. Hope it helps.

CTD twice in 24 hours. Both occations CTD just as I hit squad channel vox send button-thingy
-
I've had several CTD's the past few days, usually while either turning the plane or firing the guns.
I just had the MOTHER F'r of all CTD's just happen to me. Trying the 262 for the first time, was about to dive on a formation of A-20s, turning left...BOMB CTD. Good bye perks.
HT, I assume your looking into this? Please! :)

don't complain...I lost 4 Me262s this way already :D

I also suffered two lock-ups with the FM-2. One as I hit the trigger, the second was when I went to lower the landing gear. I was really annoyed with the lock-up as I fired, because I had just killed a Typhoon, and had perfect position on a second one.
I also had a lock-up in an Osti that cost me 6 kills. Discos like those make one a bit unhappy. However, I'm sure they will sort it soon enough.
My regards,

Ditto, only happened once so far.
I looked up and to the left and everything just locked. No keyboard controls worked, had to shut the systems down manually and restart.

Yep same thing happened to me last night . Locked up looking toward left .
-
Same here.....rolled in to saddle up, and when looking left to check area, had screen freeze, and sound loop. :eek:

Exact same thing has happened to me the last two nights in a row -- and just now. It must have something to do with the bomber formations. I seem to lock up when right before the formation gets detailed. I see them as those strange choppy trailing dots, and JUST before they get big. Lock up.
I was looking up however. Sound loop, had to reboot.
:(
It's happened to me vs Lancs and just now a Ju88. I've been able to attack A20s with no trouble it seems.
-
AH locked up while I was fighting with 3 B17 formations :mad:
I saw the last 2 B17s fall into the ground, and the next moment pc froze :( I had to reboot...
urgh!!
-
Had one last night, froze the system hard. Was in midflight in a 110, squaddie was transmitting voice and the screen froze with his last tx being repeated over and over.
Something a couple of us have noticed, when these lockups occur our joysticks are now out of calibration, odd.
-
I've been getting the screen freeze thing for a while now and got one last night with v 1.10. Only once did my sound keep looping which was just a week ago, otherwise I just freeze up and can't do anything and have to unplug my computer and go through the Windows check-disk thing.
Another oddity yesterday was that while pulling inverted in my F4F-4 to watch a P38 crash into the ground I suddenly found myself back in the tower with the message stating I'd crashed. I was nowhere near the ground when it happened and so am perplexed. Luckily I was filming and will try to review it today. A squad-mate said he'd experienced the same thing in a Zeke once or twice.

Folks,
As I posted in the bug forum. Give HT the system specs of machines that are locking up or having problems Only with complete info (or at least a hint) can HT find the problem. If they don't know where to look it will only take longer to patch the problem.
It might be a situation related to a specific vid card, sound card or bios. lerts help them fix the game we like to play. They have come through in the past as fast as anyone could ask, just give them the clues to work with.
PS. use the bug forum too to simplify the search for game problems. :D

Maverick, in case you haven't been paying attention...the bug forum is hosed.

Frost, You obviously didn't pay attention to the work around on the bug forum. Simply set selection to 2 days and the new posts are up, including mine.
Now main point of my post here was to get those with ctd's, and I am one of them, to post system specs so HT can see if there is a common denominator to be looked at. If they can find one the game can be played again.

just had another lockup, right when a b26 formation high the ground, i was in a FM2. earlier tonight, was in an osty with couple other GVs otw to a City, when a fellow
countryman's 3 b17 formation hit the ground next to us. we all
locked up at that point.
so something in the 3 buff formation is causing lockups when they
crash and u can see it.

I think Whels is right. I have only had one lockup in the game and it happened today just as the first of 3 B17s exploded in front of me and I saw the message of the kill being recorded.
The Pilot I killed said he was at the same time unable to get out of his bombers. So perhaps this is related to the fix for the Bomber bail bug?

On some of my lockups, I lose my JS all together. Have to unplug from the port, re-plug, then recalibrate. If I don't unplug it, Windows doesn't see it.

I had that happen last night,screen freeze,but sound was ok.Ive had the sound repete deal happen on other games.I think alot of it has to heat build up in my puter.Any yall overclock?I have a gf4 4200 and took a 30 to 40 fps hit with 1.10,i assume my graphics card has a higher load on it now with the newest version.After the screen lockup last night,i stepped down my gpu overclocking,and had no problems the rest of the night.It might just be some bug with the new version,but allways check to see how hot your systems running,esp. if ya have a AMD t-bird.
