Title: Game Crashing - Help
Post by: kunoichi on July 14, 2002, 03:56:00 am

OS: Windows 2000
Processor:  P3 600 Mhz
RAM: 384 MB
Video Card:  TNT2 M64 4xAGP
Video Card Memory: 32 MB
PS Client Version: 1.004

Description of the bug:  On Loading screen, the game crashes and takes me back to my desktop.  :(  I have tried 10 times, no luck

Yep, I made sure I was running on the correct server.   Only once by accident I think I connected to the wrong place, as I just wasn\'t paying attention.  :\\

The other times though I was on ps.gamiix.com

Heh, sounds like me.  Basically the same way I spend my days ;D

It could be, it wouldn\'t be the first time this video card stood between me and a game.  Wish I could afford to upgrade it, can\'t play a lot of the games nowadays.

I also just wanted to throw in the drivers for it are updated as well.

And no rush, storms are rolling in here, so most likely will lose my power in a hour or two, heh.   :)

Take your time tho, and if it is my vid card that okay.  I will surely be back when I can afford to get a new one in the future :)

ZoneAlarm is the only firewall I run, but I did allow PS full permission.  I think...maybe I should check that real quick, heh.

*checks*

Yep, I did.  Then again, ZoneAlarm could still be blocking something, who knows.  :\\

And nah to the parental controls.  I\'m 20 years old, youngest in the house.  Basically anyone who touches this computer loses an arm so don\'t think anything has been set.

I will keep browsing around though, checking the firewall and all.  Also, if nothing does come up, don\'t sweat it.   Sometimes I think my computer just doesn\'t like me ;)  Hehe.  It\'s fairly old, so, could just be that.

Altho would still love to get to play, looks awesome. :D  I have beta tested before as well, and am always looking for new games.  That\'s the best part :D

I live in Texas, Houston-ish area.  So far it\'s just some thundering/lightning, but never know in this area.  One minute it can be sunny, the next it\'s flooding.  :\\

Not to be a pain here, but I can\'t find the patch link.  :(   I checked the main page, and all the downloads pages as well.  Maybe I am just overlooking it.  Really sorry :\\  I work tech support so I know how it can be when someone can\'t even find a single link that is probably right there in front of them.

I did look though, but will continue to look.  ;D

Thanks again for all your help, I really do appreciate it!  I wasn\'t expecting such fast service, heh.  Keep it up! :D

Awesome, thanks so much!  If there are any other questions I can answer along the way to help aid them, just let me know and I\'m glad to help.  I work all weekend, so I basically don\'t leave the computer for 48 hours straight.  So I will be here to answer anything :D

Hehe and yes, many storms are heading this way.  But I see how you want to be, looks like I will have to send these storms back your way so you have to deal with them again :evil:

Hehe, just kidding. :D   Enjoy your evening and let me know if there is anything I can do/answer to aid you guys in what the problem could be.  :)

firstly, nice gundam picture *slice*. Ive got the same problems as everyone is this god forsaken place. if i run in safe mode its all screwy and black and white and shit. when i run in openGL its all good. Character creation - fine. Connection - seems fine until its loading world and then boom! it hits me with a client error before i get a glimpse of another gaming soul.

-and that concludes our feature presentation-
