CTD: Tank maps only. TG only. Bug?

[R-CON]Wolfe · 02-07-2008, 04:36 AM

Just after the map loads, I CTD. This only seems to happen on tank maps after tanks have spawned, and only on the TG server.

Normally I join any server, any time, any map without problems. But earlier today when I joined TG/Kashan in progress, it crashed 6 times in a row after loading the map. On the 7th attempt, it allowed me to play for about 10 minutes then crashed.

So we switched to another server, played Kufrah Oil fields (the one with a bazillion tanks) and we played just fine. Later this evening, we went back to TG, played other infantry maps on TG without any problems. Then Ejod loaded on TG, we ran an APC squad for 20 minutes, but as soon as the tanks loaded, I crashed to desktop. Tried to rejoin.. crash.

This never happened before; I have never crashed to desktop, EVER. I have not installed any new programs, nor have changed any settings in BF2 nor my system; this is the same computer which has always run PR without problems... except after .7 (started getting the connection prob issue too).

Is TG running new experimental code that might cause this CTD issue? And why does it only seem to occur on tank maps?

may be a file got corrupted - reinstalling should solve this - but you can also first try to a) empty bf2 cache b) reset settings to default/delete bf2 profile folder

Fixed.

Forgot I modified some local server files while testing experimental tank mechanics for a future release. Reverted back to the original file and everything seems to work.
