Hi,

I've been playing this game ever since it came out but this is the worst case of my game crashing ever.

It happens after the recent update, I can't tell why but I always thought it was a firebug incident where either there's too much fire or smoke that'll choke the game and crashing it.

But after some testing, I can manage to play the game once in ten games without crash and I'm not even sure if it was firebug at all cause there's a few times where a husk tries to shoot and the game just went kaboom.

What I got always is "General Protection Fault", I checked other threads too but I can't find a fix.

I did downloaded the game twice now, installing it and setting my options up differently but still no avail. It work once after reinstalling the game.

Windows XP SP3
Core 2 Duo 2.66 Ghz
2GB
ATI Radeon 2600 XT

It's all updated and only KF is giving this headache.

It's due to your video card struggling with all of the blending that has to go into the fire(for the firebug and the husk). This is a known issue, but there as far as I can tell, there isn't a good fix. The fire doesn't cause a problem for 99% of players, just certain ATI cards, it seems.

It's still odd that it started happening now. So far, it hasn't crash so far if I redownload the game but that is getting tedious if I want to play it more often.
