Crashing trouble with freon?

Post by }TCP{Snowbird »

I was in the server all night, and was useing freon for 4 or 5 games. I had no problems untill I got in fOOk. I played the half of the game with no problem, then BAM!!! There was no more playing for Frank.

I had an error with the shadows. Textures or what ever. Has someone changed the level latley?

This has never happened to me b-4, and there is a reason for it. I wish I knew what it was.

I get the same kind of error Frank, about the shadow of the icecubes. :P

This is aint a thing from yesterday, i have these error since freon came. :)
But sometimes i can play all night without problems, but sometimes it goes on crashing all the time. :(

Im trying to see some sort of point where it's about to crash, and i think i found 2 of them:
1- Is the anti tcc check (when he start checking the skins)

And 2 is when somebody dies. (body turns to ice)

Very weird since i reinstalled my whole pc few days ago, so no other versions in my cache since i only play at the TCP servers yet.

Maybee i should try to but the files in my System folder, and see if it helps.

I have heard that you guys had this problem with the freon games, but to this day I thought it was just your computers, or something that was downloaded on your computers, but now I have the same problem, and I have not downloded much, except the first 5 or 6 maps in the list. I played with the Bot yesterday for a couple of hours and I just let the server do its tihng and download the maps as they came. Could there be a glinch in one of the first maps that is causeing shadow errors? Something like the cididel used to do if someone did not have the ECE pack? Hmmmm....

maybe one of us should open the editor and look at some of those begining maps. There might be something there. BTW, there was one that I never played b4, and it was a great map. Something to do with egypt.

I seem to have the problem with all maps in freon, when it gets to 5 or 6 crashes in a row (even in Spectator mode) I give up and go do something else for a while :lol: .

And I dont have anything but standard UT running plus a firewall, no additional downloads, no infections from non-TCP servers, nothing other than the FPS tweak and purgecache set to zero. Someone speculated that it might be due to patch sequence, but I think I have just patched when the game told me to. And my install is only a few months old.

It might be card related, on this PC I have a Radion X740XL which seems to handle all other games and applications with no trouble.

No, i doubt if it is a problem with the pc itself. Like I said, I NEVER had this problem before. The things that changed on my computer are, I set the MaxClientFrameRate to I think it was 500. And then I downloaded those maps. Our problem has to be there somewhere.

Do u guys have the files installed manually in the System folder, or u downloaded from the server automatic, so it ends up in the Cache folder?

I always download from the server, maybee I should try to rename and move them to the System folder.

Well those maps I have in the cache. I was too lazy to DL them. I think I will empty the cache, and load the files in the map folders, and see if there is any other downloads that have to go in the system folder.

I was speccing on the TCP server yesterday and noticed this problem to. Funny thing is though I later went to the KDS server and we were playing freon there as well. I played for over 2 hours without a single crash. We didn't have near the server load as the TCP server so I suspect the crash has something to do with player count.

Its very strange, it is random (I dont think I crashed while speccing last night, although I crashed when joining the other server after speccing) while at the same time seems to hit some players more than others, and I think it gives different error messages out.

There has to be a tie in somewhere. It is the game, the level, the mod or the player. I do not think it is the mod. I played, like I said b-4 thousands of games in freon, without the problem. BAM, there it was.
