frequent ctd

[Monkage]

dunno if anybody else is getting frequent ctd for the past week or so, but it sux. maybe this is my chance to make a clean break from alleg addiction?

I haven't heard of any unusual activities in this department. It's probably isolated to your machine. Maybe a re-install of drivers (both sound and video) are in order?

[snufkin]

i posted about this too, they are quite sporadic and hard to narrow down. monk i think the best we can do is write down the circumstances of the crash and the resulting error code.

I only ever got them with TF which I posted about in another thread. Haven't had any issues since then though.

[Monkage]

the problem is that my interest in alleg is waning, and if it takes effort on my part to make it work then I'm not gonna be all gung-ho to figure out why, especially when everything else works fine on my system.

... anyway, I just thought I'd mention it in case anybody else is having issues, too.

Cheers.

I had the same problem during a TF versus Giga game.
Crashed to desktop 4 times.

[Youngmoose]

I did 4 times in the same 2 hour game

I did 2 times too.

Both times were when I was trying to defend a sector against a Garr Con attempting to plant. In the first I was firing and rmming it - the second I was firing near too it (but not touching).

Interesting, people on BOTH sides were crashing during that game; notjarvis was on the TF side defending against Giga cons. I was on the Giga side, and also crashed twice that game.

The first time, oddly enough, was when I docked my scout (lxy, I think) at a Giga starbase in a clean sector (no one else in the sector). I hit the green door, the "back-in-base" sound played, and the game then immediately crashed as it tried to display the in-base screen. This isn't the first time I've had weird crashes like that in empty or near-empty sectors in TF games, either.

The second time was during one of those con push battles - I was late to the party, came through the aleph (in an adv fig) into the sector, and IMMEDIATELY crashed the instant I entered the sector (which contained a whole lot of TF adv figs, Giga adv/lxy figs, Giga hvy/lxy scouts, a couple TF hvy ints, a TF Garr and Adv Sup, and a Giga starbase con); the error was EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION.

Can I get all of you experiencing the crash to post a simple Template? Don't bother filling out the problems.

EDIT: And dxdiag as well.
