GD to Rescue

[ilija]

I was playing this mission and everything was going smoth and nice but the moment i start the atack on the hill in the midle of the map the game crashes to desktop or screen is frezing,now before i atacked that hill i cleared one part of those forest around it, maybe that is why the game crashes or some data coruption.

Hmm, first time of a CTD report on this mission. Cleraing the forest before you are told to (tut, tut) shouldn't crash the game.

Has the crash occurred more than once on this mission and if so was it in the same place?

The crash is allways at same time,few moments after the start of the atack on the hill.Before this point there were no CTD.

[Adrian Taylor]

I gather you are re-starting from a previous save? If so do you have a earlier save you can work from.

Also do you have alot of air activity?

Can you also confirm what system you have, in particular RAM and Video card.

Yes i have a lot of air activity,i will try to work from previous save.

My machine is P4 2.4 ,512 RAM and the video card is Ge Force Fx 5500 256 RAM it should be enough i think.

[Adrian Taylor]

The air activity maybe causing the CTD's. This is a legacy problem from the original Blitz game as som vid card drivers have difficulty with the exploding plane gfx, even if this occurs off screen.

We have a patch that removes the plane explosions so that destroyed planes will exit "smoking". I will upload this later tonight for you to download.
