With the exception of Grain Elevator, the new maps cause me to crash after about 5-10 minutes of play. I even crash now on Gumrak, which worked perfectly pre-patch!

I've lowered my graphics settings (still average about 60 fps until the sudden crash), verified integrity of game files, and defraged game files. Nothing has helped so far.

They game ran perfectly on Ultra until this patch!

Intel Quad Core 2.5Hz

I'm going to bed now as its 2am but I'll try to take a look tomorrow. (try to open the logs yourself and type the error behind critical bla bla into google, most errors have existed in UT3 or other UE3 games and sometimes you can find a fix like that ^^).

Same: Crashing on everything but grain elevator

Same: Crashing on everything but grain elevator

Before, I could play well on high settings but regularly crashed on fallen fighters. I got a outofmemory error. Post-patch, everything but grain elevator is crashing, even on medium settings. I'm guessing I might get maps to work on lowest settings. I'm guessing this is a memory issue as the errors I'm seeing in the logs and from windows say that virtual memory ran out (I have 35 gigs free on my hard drive). I do only have 2gigs of ram, but still. My graphics card is gtx460 760meg. Dump file attached ... or not--forums say it's an invalid file. Okay, launch file attached, if that helps at all.

Inevitable crashes in the barracks, after 3 - 10 minutes of play. I would love to attach the .dmp files, but using the upload function here always returns "invalid file"

Crashes for me too on the new maps, also seems to run worse as well. Maybe the date should be pushed back again?

Crashes for me on connection to the new maps or within a min. Also runs worse than old maps, might be worth delaying the game another week or so?

Set audio channels to 8 or 16

Set audio channels to 8 or 16

As suggested in another thread, set audio levels to 8 or 16 and see if this helps. Also, turn down your graphics settings. I could play on low, then I set my audio channels to 8 and could then play on medium.

Update: I tried 16 channel sound and was able to play a full map of barracks. Then I played a full TE map of Grain. When we switched back to barracks, the game crashed after 2 minutes of play. It was right after Arty was called, but not sure if that matters...

Graphic settings make no difference. I updated my SigmaTel sound drivers and that didn't seem to make any difference either.

I'm starting to lean towards the idea that it's something to do with a conflict with my sound card. Any additional help would be appreciated!

Also experiencing crashes similar to the ones described here post patch, barracks is unplayable due to crash on load and RedOctober crashes when the first arty hits A.

Fixed: Turned my shadow detail UP and now I have no crashes! Was on detail level of medium, turned it up to ultra and have been playing happily on Barracks for hours. Has hurt my FPS a bit, but it works...
