Got game crash? Do this

[tigerforce 90]

Just to report a strange bug on Chernarus Map :

Yesterday, I was finishing creating a mission and when I wanted to test it via the Editor, the mission load, I saw my soldier, but during few second the game freezes, paused and then worked fine.

So I check my mission and i find the problem :

On the airport on the North of Chernarus, I put in a hangar, some guys with animations and a UH-1Y fold. One door of this hangar was opened.

When I deleted the guys in the hangar, the UH-1Y and the animation to open the door of the hangar, and then retested the mission, it worked well.

So it's seems there is a problem with this hangar. Its ID is 137079 and i have this in my rpt :

Performance warning: Very large search for 137079 (>300 m)
Performance warning: Search for 1df8c100# 137079: hangar_2.p3d was very large (10770 m)
Performance warning: Very large search for 137079 (>300 m)
Performance warning: Search for 1df8c100# 137079: hangar_2.p3d was very large (10770 m)

To precise, I check with ArmA 2 CO 1.62 (no beta patch) and without any other addons.

Reporting a strange crash that seems to occur after 10~ minutes of playing, both in SP and MP.

ArmA2:CO v 1.62 (no beta patch).

This is with ACE (which has also been reported in their thread). I haven't had time to test it with vanilla ArmA2. I am running the latest version of the game.

Crash report logs: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/16140164/ArmA2/errorLogs20121217.rar

The game seems to lose its video. It crashes to desktop, but ArmA is still running and mouse commands will still have an effect in game (shooting, etc which I can hear). I updated video card drivers thinking this would fix it but still no luck. Any ideas?

I made some hardware changes to my computer before I noticed this happening (installed a new internal HDD). I've opened the case and verified the video card is plugged in and configured correctly and it throws no errors in other games.

Going to totally reinstall tonight and report back but would like to know if anyone else has experienced this error.

I was playing fine on Friday but tonight every time I try and launch Arma2OA it crashes. I've tried with no mods and with and without the beta. The only thing I recall changing recently is updating my graphics driver from Cat 12.6 to 13.2beta3 but I think I actually did that before Friday. The only other I just did before trying to play tonight is update the beta and CWR2 with Six Updater but as I've tried launching without mods or the beta I can't see that can be connected.

I tried with the atiumdag.dll from Cat 12.6 in the A2OA folder but it still crashes so it's probably nothing to do with the driver.

I've tried killing practically every other app and service that isn't essential as well.

I tried with the various allocators as well.

My RPT shows the following:

because you not replaced nickname with my forum nickname :)

anyway I suggest you first try latest OA betas

[doveman 7]

No, that's what I was saying, I edited it just in my post here to avoid posting your e-mail in the forums :p

As I said, I tried with and without the beta.

My original Windows seems fubared at the moment, so I'm using my backup installation which doesn't seem to have any problems and is running Cat 12.6. Still Arma2OA crashes on loading. I did a Filesync of Common and Expansion/Addons from my backup, comparing files by content and they're identical. I did two clear runs of Memtest overnight, MSI Kombuster doesn't cause any errors and I've disabled my CPU/NB overclock in the BIOS.

I tried deleting the ArmA2OA.cfg so that it created a new one on launch but it still crashes. I seem to recall the last time I managed to run it I changed AF to disabled (maybe AA as well, although that might already have been disabled) but I can't see how disabling that would cause it to crash. Nonetheless, I figured it was worth a try, so changed anisoFilter= from 0 to 2 in my ArmA2OAprofile but it still crashes.

This is my Arma2OA.cfg:

and this the video-related sections of my ARMA2OAprofile:

shadowQuality=3;

uiBottomRightX=0.72891343;
uiBottomRightY=0.77499998;
IGUIScale=0.55000001;

Mind you, I tried running with a different user profile named Main and deleted the Arma2OAprofile from that folder and it still crashes, so it's probably nothing to do with the settings in that.

EDIT: Just tested with DCS World and that crashes on loading as well, so I guess it's nothing specific with OA. God knows what's happened though, as I say MSI Kombuster doesn't show any problems with the GPU.

OK, I've restored from a True Image backup and now A2OA and DCS World are loading OK, so that's hopefully fixed that.

I'd like to blame Cat 13.2beta 3 but I can't really, seeing as how that's never been installed in my other Windows.

[doveman 7]

Well I was playing Arma2 last night for a few hours, then DCS World. Today Arma2 has gone back to crashing on launching, before it gets to the menu. I haven't changed anything since last night so I haven't got a clue what's going on here. Tested DCS World and that was fine and booted to XP and Arma2 loads fine there as well (I didn't play it but it loads to the menu OK).

Can you help me Dwarden?

EDIT: The crashes I'm getting since Monday show the same reference in the RPT to aticfx32.dll as before. I assume this is something to do with Crossfire but I only have a single 6950 so I don't know why it would be using that.

Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION at 004EA8A2

Allocator: D:\Games\ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\expansion\beta\dll\tbb4malloc_bi.dll

graphics: D3D9, Device: AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series, Driver:aticfx32.dll 8.17.10.1132

resolution: 1920x1200x32

I restored the same True Image backup to my second Windows partition and Arma2 works fine launched from that, so it's obviously not a hardware problem. It's hard to understand what software problem it could be either, considering I didn't do anything between playing on Sunday evening and not being able to launch it on Monday.

So when I send my files to that Email, do I get a reply or something?

I played the Arma series for a long time now and the last 3 weeks I get random CTD's on the Arma2OA.exe file.

It happends on the Beta and Latest official patch.

Tried to repair my installation on steam and it replaced 6 files but didnt help.

Is this when you are leaving a server and you freeze up because i have that problem only and it is not cool:(

[BlackADD3R 1]

Need help with RPT file.

I am trying to play MarkB50K Apocalypse mission. It has a bunch of randomly generated options you can select, that's why I like it so much.

Anyhow, as of a few months ago it has been crashing game to desktop (arma2oa has stopped working error message).

I have been trying everything, disabling mods, running vanilla, reverting to older versions of mission (there are many) etc..

I am able to play anywhere from 15 minutes to 1hr but inevitably it will always end to desktop.

I have been trying to make some sense scouring my rpt files but wanted a pro to look at it because I essentially don't know what to look for.

This week I have focused on using different memory allocators in my launch parameter to see if it was a memory issue, since I read this on the forums being a common problem if the game runs fine for a while, but then builds up to a ctd.

wil someone check out my rpt file real quick if I post it?

That would be very helpful...or point me to where to learn how to read an rpt file..

thanks in advance

I have noticed these things in my rpt file, they don't seem like positive warnings and there are dozens of them such as:

Addon markb50k_config_pracs (entry MARKB50K_EAST_PRACS_Regular_ARM) not found in the list of active addons.

Addon pracs_weapons (entry PRACS_Mk48) not found in the list of active addons.

Addon pracs_weapons (entry PRACS_g3a3) not found in the list of active addons.

Addon markb50k_config_pracs (entry MARKB50K_EAST_PRACS_Regular_GRE) not found in the list of active addons.

and

because you not replaced nickname with my forum nickname :)

anyway I suggest you first try latest OA betas

What is the OA beta anyway? I see it avaliable in my Steam library but i haven't installed it yet.

I also get crashes especially when playing for long in the IA Commander single missions/scenarios in the game. Running out of memory etc. I will send a crashlog next time it crashes.

Cheers!

[Dwarden 1124]

it's beta version of OA, recommended to play the OA / DayZ with :) http://forums.bistudio.com/forumdisplay.php?82-ARMA-2-amp-OA-BETA-PATCH-TESTING

Thank you very much for explaining! Would it be advisable to run the beta instead of the original OA as long as i don't come along any bugs?

Going a bit offtopic here but are there going to be any Russian activity in Arma 3?

[doveman 7]

My problem with ArmA crashing on loading turned out to be caused by FreeTrackNoIR, particularly a key it creates in the registry. With that deleted, ArmA works fine. FTNoIR has been updated now to fix this problem anyway.

However, I still have the problem where the first time I connect to a server, such as launching with PwS, it connects but I'm unable to slot-in and eventually get kicked. I have to reconnect (after waiting for it to register that I've disconnected) and then I can slot it but it's obviously very annoying as it means I have to manually filter for the server and enter the password.

I made a thread about this problem http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?144721-Having-to-disconnect-then-reconnect-before-I-can-slot-in&p=2276908#post2276908

Ok. Dwarden i uploaded a crashlog to you.

Cheers!

[JahniSlim 1]

I can't keep the game running for more than 10 minutes or so. I have a GTX670 as primary video card and a GTX560 as a dedicated physX card. I am using driver version 314.07 and it crashes, recovers and then the client remains a black screen although I can still hear the game running. I am forced to minimize the client and close it. I believe I was reading that the physX might have some issues with Arma 2 and so I'm thinking of unplugging the card altogether and seeing if that might solve the problem. Any help is appreciated!

I found the files but i how do i put them in a private message?

[Smiith 1]

I got nvidia 660ti and run it on 314 version of official drivers. In Steam version Arma2 campaign the videodriver crash about every 10-20 minutes, but game itself continue running with dark screen. My PC spec is i5-3570/16G ram/660ti2Gb/Win7 64bit with latest patches.

[Maratux 10]

I play arma 2 OA for 5-15 minutes and it just crashes to desktop or i get the blue screen of death. i have an ati 7870, i5 3550k and 8 gb of ram . Tried reinstalling the game, installed the newest drivers and updating the beta patch . It still does not work.

I have the steam version, i played regular arma 2 and didnt have any crashes

[skyypunk 10]

Steam versions (purchased Combined Operations)

ARMA II runs fine, but OA initially errors with "Addon 'CA_CommunityConfigurationProject_E' requires addon 'CA_AIR_E_MQ9PredatorB'", then tries to start up (loading screen briefly appears), and finally closes with "Bad serial number given in Setup"

I have tried:

Registry fixes (deleting ARMA II OA folders, adding Key value, giving all users full permissions to the Bohemia folders)

Running steam as admin

Verifying file integrity

Wiping out ARMA dirs in steam, redownloading (as admin)

I am submitting the crash report to you. Thanks for any help!

[dirtbag 10]

I too am having crash problems for the last 3 years. Appcrash c0000005 and out of memory footprint. Will get a report ASAP
