So since .86 came out I crash to desktop constantly while playing, it seems that when things get crazy with gunfights and grenades and such ill just CTD without an error. Not sure whats causing this but i cannot play anymore cause it happens every time I play. Please help I love PR and dont know what i would do if i couldnt play anymore. BTW I also BSOD on occasion aswell, ive done stress tests to bot my gpu (with multiple hours of crysis) and RAM (with memtest) and both work fine.

Re: Crashing during gameplay
or Try using the patched bf2.exe...
First, you can try lowering your video settings, in particular, Textures. If that doesn't help or fix your issue, you can try increasing your virtual memory.
If that STILL doesn't work, you can try patching your bf2.exe to allow it to use more than 2GB of memory. This is only useful if you indeed do have more than 2GB of memory. Firstly, you want to backup your current bf2.exe in your "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 2" (default install location) folder. To do this, simply rename it from bf2.exe to bf2.exe.original. You should back it up incase you have any issues in the future. Now you need to download the patched bf2.exe. This can be found in THIS zip file (THIS one if your using the EA Downloader version) (If you get a virus warning, ignore it, just a false positive). Then simply extract it next to bf2.exe.original, and your good to go.

Re: Crashing during gameplay
I did the C++ thing to stop the memory problem, Would that have the same effect as the patched bf2.exe? Cause im still having CTD during gameplay with no error at all. Sometimes houses or mountains go black or funny colors pop up, I thought it might be faulty GPU but crysis runs fine at lower then 62c.[R-TEC]Robbi187 wrote:or Try using the patched bf2.exe...
