PR Crash

Post by Captain_Pollard »

Gday,
I have a problem with V1.0. Every time I try to load into PR V1.0 it crashes to a window saying "BF2 Memory Failed" or something like that OR it will just crash saying nothing, It also happens to me Mid game every single time, I either can't load in or once I do mid game it crashes, so I haven't actually had a full game of PR V1.0 yet without it crashing.

I have never had a problem with PR or BF2 like this before and my PC it totally capable of running PR V1.0.

I have Unistalled Pr 1.0 and re-installed it, I have Run my setting on the Lowest and High settings, I have unistalled BF2 and re-installed that, I cleared all the Caches in the luncher for PR V1.0.

I really need help because I want to enjoy a FULL game of PR without crashing out every single game.

Thanks :D

Moved to support forum.

Post your specs from the launcher please.

Run the game in windowed mode to see if windows gives an error message at crash.

Did it work?

You should do everything you can to minimize the background processes and windows UI options that eat up RAM and videoRAM.
Download this:
Ultimate Windows Tweaker, a TweakUI for Windows 7 & Vista
install,
turn off all the windows 7 eye candy.

------------------------

3. Download Bitsum ProcessLasso Free. Make sure you download the correct version, Free 32 bit or Free 64 bit, Process Lasso - Automate and optimize process priorities, CPU affinities, power profiles, and more!
-- Start PR, JOIN AN ONLINE SERVER, alt tab to desktop, open ProcessLAsso window, right click on PRBF2.exe, PRLauncher.exe, and PRMumble.exe and pnkbstra.exe and pnkbstrB.exe and give them default priority status of High, set the PRBF2.exe to gaming mode, and give them high or higher access to RAM.
Unpark your CPU Cores in ProcessLasso->Options->Configure CPU Core Parking->UNpark your cores.
After this, you have to assign PRBF2.exe to a core other than Core0.

'[R-COM wrote:LITOralis.nMd;1927766']Antol, your English is very good, very interesting post I had not thought of this before.

I have a permanent solution possible, let me write it up and I'll post again soon.

Download Bitsum ProcessLasso Free. Make sure you download the correct version, Free 32 bit or Free 64 bit, Process Lasso - Automate and optimize process priorities, CPU affinities, power profiles, and more!
-- Start PR, alt tab to desktop, open ProcessLasso window, right click on PRLauncher.exe, PRBF2.exe and and give them default priority status of High, set the PRBF2.exe to gaming mode, and give both of them high or higher access to RAM. Right click on PRLauncher.exe and select CPU Core, give it access to Core0, Apply, close the submenu. Right click on PRBF2.exe and select CPU Core, give it access to Core1, Apply, close the submenu.

Adjust the Core number by how many physical cores your CPU has,
if you have a dual core,
Put PRLauncher on the first core, Core0
Put PRBF2.exe on the second core, Core1

if you have a triple core,
Put PRLauncher on the second core, Core1
Put PRBF2.exe on the Third core, Core2

if you have a Quad core, you should probably not need this.
Put PRLauncher on the second core, Core1
Put PRBF2.exe on the Third core, Core2
-------------

These steps will either make your PC faster and have you jumping for joy, or it will no nothing.

Also, before attempting any of this, please post your system specs from the PRLauncher->Support->Copy to Clipboard menu.
