Did you verify the RO game cache ?

 

[DaGrimVI]

yes i have but it still will not work

 

[fiftyone]

Delete your RO system folder, then start Steam and once again verify(it will download a new system file).

See if that helps, don't worry it does not hurt !

updating your drivers and your directx version to the latest can help too.

 

[DaGrimVI]

my stuff is updated and that isnt working,does anyone have a definate solution to this reoccuring problem that ive seen several people besides me have?

 

[Zetsumei]

it can mean overheating aswell.

GPF errors and C++ runtime errors can mean everything.

you could have some corrupted data somewhere can you post your redorchestra.log file here (as in upload it as a zipped file not posting the full contents in a normal post) (like a custom map that isn't fully downloaded so a incorrect ucl file gets created etc.

Ill check if it says anything specific.

The more we know, the better we can attempt solving the problem ^^

sorry i dont know what a log is

 

[Zetsumei]

just upload the redorchestra.log its located in steam\steamapps\common\red orchestra\system\

 

[DaGrimVI]

i dont have a redorchestra.log i only have config redorchestra,empty notepad sayin redorchestra and a redorchestra.upl file.

bump

 

[Zetsumei]

if the notepad file is empty that could imply that you never ran the game ever before is this the case for you?

Try disabling anti aliasing in your videocard control panel settings too.

First time when ro starts up and your vidcard is strong enough it will add anti aleasing in the ini, maybe if you have it set in the vidcard control panel its conflicting.
