Tryed it and yes i CTD when i when into the Leopard

Yep. So, I know the problem, and it'll be fixed in v0.91 . The issue is with badly sized dds textures, it only seems to occur in older ATI cards (maybe others, unsure). So, for the moment, you will just have to stay away from the tow/hj8 (milan is fine), and don't go near the leopard. Or, if you are really desperate, upgrade to a newer video card .

Good news，thanks a lot

Thanks, good to know.

thanks ancient man good to know its being fixed

I know this has already come to a conclusion but what I've noticed makes people crash is low graphics.. all my friends that use low graphics/some random squaddies i've had ctd when using the TOW.. I have an ATI card and use medium graphics and it works fine.. but both my friends have ATI and use low and they crash..

i have ATI x1650 video card and have this problem =(

Thank you for the heads up in regards to ATI vid cards.

I experienced this problem while playing PRSP COOP, as a US SL and regular infantry soldier on Jabal twice, and once on Kashan, Also on Muttrah as US AR upon entering the TOW Hmmvw and trying to use the TOW I also CTD'ed I figured it was only a PRSP COOP bug, however as others have posted, I also experienced the CTD while as a Canadian AR non-scoped AR Gunner on Yamalla upon entry on the Deploy able AT.

I use the ATI X1600 Sapphire Pro, and from what others in game have said, BF2 cooperates more with nvidia than ATI, however since my knowledge of computers and video cards isn't that great, I can't really speculate, but if anyone wants to send me cash in non-sequential bills I will gladly purchase a better video card and donate the remainder of the cash to the site.

I have an Ati Radeon 4350 HD and i haven't crashed using the Tow at all. Both online on normal servers and on co-op servers and I have been fine. However, since it's getting fixed, there is no need to really worry. Just hope that a tank doesn't come your way and you're the only one alive at your Fob with a Tow just sitting there, perfectly aligned to take it out. But that will probolby won't happen, right?

I'm having the same problem with CTDing upon entering a deployable AT on Kashan Desert on the US side.

However, it does not crash when I am on the MEC side an enter a deployable AT.

I was playing Muttrah City as marines on PRSP Co-op, and the same thing happened to me but on a mounted tow HMMVEE.

MEC AT is different


YOU GUYS SHOULD REPORT YOUR GRAPHICS SETTINGS

If you don't crash, i'd bet you don't use low.

If you do crash, i'd bet you do use low.

Same problem in both online and COOP mode.
When entering a stationary TOW or mounted TOW turns out to CTD at once.
I have tried to transport TOW texture from files of v0.85 to weapons_client.zip TOW folder to see if it works on changing to old version textures and no CTD problem anylonger.
Maybe the problem is that the new TOW texture files in 0.9 dont work well with current BF2.exe or ATI card.

*****Suggest that next version use the old TOW texture files to avoid CTD problem.*****

P.S. Im using an old ATI graphic card with all graphic settings to medium

Just want to add that all the same stuff happens to me (tow, humvee tow, leopard commander, etc.). Tried it on both Low and Medium, both crashed. Only the MEC deployable tow worked, the stationary MEC tow crashed me as well.

The difference is, I'm using Intel 4500MHD integrated graphics, so it's not only with ATI.


Thanks.
