I don't know about any one else...but 8.2 has been on big pain.

The crash to desktop rate has far surpassed any previous version I have had on my machine...to the point where I am ready to unistall it. [:(]



KG Erwin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 7:11:02 AM)

Ken, I'm certain that you got a corrupted copy. I'm also certain that one of the community can send you a fresh CD.



Goblin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 9:29:34 AM)

I have had 3 CtD in the Stalingrad Campaign so far. That is three more than I have ever had. None today at all, but I only played one scenario.

WOW...I'm usally the one with the crappy luck like that....so far so good here (now I'll probly crash because I wrote that). If you need another copy...let me know.
Take care,
Huffy

I had one crash with a download from some mirror site. I downloaded from another and have had no problems on XP. I do make sure I free system memory before playing.



Rhodan -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 2:25:31 PM)

No problems here either, sorry to hear that Orzel.



wodin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 2:35:54 PM)

No problems either.



Don Doom -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 3:28:06 PM)

I have had four so far, three on a long campaign and one in the editor.[&:]



Hexed Gamer -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 3:57:50 PM)

At the risk of asking a stupid question, but your system still runs other comparable games yet still?

Myself, I don't really experience CTD for like really anything. 8.2 included.

Is it remotely possible you have hardware issues?



Don Doom -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 4:25:28 PM)

Nope, just replaced just about everything. All other versions of sp[7.1,7.1hth,8.0hth] work fine with no ctd.[:)]



Jamminji -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 8:10:54 PM)

Well I get a Crash to Desktop when I am downloading it...lol 4 times! Needless to say it must be my fault, eventhough everything else downloads and runs fine...lol At least that is what I was "told". hmmmm maybe not?

No fear, I am getting a cd hopfully. Thanks VikingNo1!!!

BTW... Viking?... Is your crashing?...lol

Orzel Bialy -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 8:11:15 PM)

On previous versions I would suffer a CtD maybe once in 100 plays. On 8.2 my crash rate is probably 30-40%!

I am going to try a new install and see if maybe the copy I received had a corrupted file or two.

I am noticing that the majority of my CtD's come on mid to large size scenarios after about a dozen turns or so...when the carnage is usually starting to pile up.



KG Erwin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/17/2004 9:17:01 PM)

Everyone knows that SPWaW is a notorious memory hog, but maybe the tweaks in the 8.2 mech.exe exacerbated this problem. This is just conjecture, but it should be looked into. However, I haven't had a single crash in either the testing phase or my long campaign battles.

Orzel, let us know how the new install checks out.



rrockw -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/18/2004 6:32:00 AM)

I've recently installed SPWAW 8.2 on three different computers and they are all functioning normally.



Huffy -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/18/2004 9:39:49 AM)

still the same here also...I have put it on 4 different comp...and we even play over the net...person-person...though IP address thing...no prob as of yet...
We are running XP...with 512 ram...one has a 2.6 processer...one has a 900 P3..,a 850 P3,...and last...a 350P2. Through the LAN...over the net....hmmm...hope this gets figured out...
Take care all..and good luck,
Huffy



Hexed Gamer -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/18/2004 3:46:51 PM)

After all these comments, seems like it might just be Karma.

Go take mom or someone else's mom if need be, out to lunch then try it :)

Hey it can't hurt hehe.



KG Erwin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 1:15:13 AM)

Orzel, from which site or mirror did you download the game? IF a corrupted download exists, we need to find the source of it.

I'm getting spontaneous CTD. I was just poking around in the LOTR OOB file Jess posted and I kept getting crashes.

We are not amused![:@]



KG Erwin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 1:41:24 AM)

Same question to you, rbrunsman. Where did you download it from?



rbrunsman -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 1:56:03 AM)

Pretty sure it was Worthplaying.

I'm downloading it again and I'll reinstall it to see what happens.

VikingNo2 -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 2:46:03 AM)

Hmmm I have had no problems and no crashes



KG Erwin -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 3:38:15 AM)

Ok, the Gamers Hell sites seem to be reliable. I would recommend avoiding FilePlanet and Worthplaying for now.



rbrunsman -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 7:42:14 AM)

Now my v8.01 is crashing all the time.[:@] I must have done something to screw up a delicate balance that I didn't know existed. This really sucks![:@]



Major_Mess -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 7:47:29 AM)

I got it from gamers hell .......................... with no problems to report. (I'm runnin' XP)




Other than I can't seem to find near enough time to play, my summer is tooooo goooood right now!!!!!!!!

I got my copy from GamersHell, too, and running it smoothly, both on XP Pro and MilleniumEdition machines.



DzrtFox -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/20/2004 6:05:02 PM)

Is anyone else who's having problems running Win98? I'm running 98SE and am having the same CTD problem. On top of that the autosave feature doesn't seem to be working correctly so when I do CTD, I lose everything in the scenario I'm in (I usually only save at the end of each one). I'm pretty sure I downloaded the file from Fileshack, so I'm trying the Gamers Hell one. I'll report back in with my results.



RockinHarry -> RE: 8.2 = NBC (Nothing But Crashes) (7/21/2004 7:26:36 PM)

No CTD so far. [:)] Please, those who receive some CDT more frequently watch carefully game messages and save the Combat.txt file with ALT-L! If itīs not a corrupted download, then more info is needed on particular scenario that crashes. Might help to find out what causes the CDT in particular.
