[0909] onwards crashing during map loads for new/modified maps.
Posted: 2010-04-10 21:26
Hi all, first post.
I have been playing PR since version 0.80x. Never had a problem, except the occasional vista-related CTD.
However, since 909, i am unable to successfully load a significant number of maps, including (not not limited to) operation archer(possibly my favourite map of all time, and the one that prompted this post, as opposed to the irritated *i hope they fix this soon* attitude that i had before), and ALL of the new maps that i have attempted to load thus far, with the sole exception of gaza beach. The only thing i can see in common is the failure of the new/modified maps, indicating that something has been done wrong in this section.
Generally the map loads to one of the following percentages, dependent on the map: 66%(geometries), 94%(textures), or gets to "validating client data"(or whatever it says at the end of a load before you get the *squad select* button) and then CTD's with no error message.
I am currently running windows 7 32-bit, with a PC that eats the minimum requirements for breakfast and then laughs like a drunken hyena, so compatiability shouldn't be an issue.
This IS NOT a BF2 or client-side issue. It has arisen specifically since the release of PR v0.909 and persists to the time of this posting. I have attempted, on at least two occasions, completely removing and reinstalling PR. Reinstalling BF2 has yet to be done, but I will consider it.
Please get back to me with something useful.
