Try -nomap with 1.94b - it's worked for me!

@avon sorry, but i cant find any matching...

You've already tried everything in The FAQ's "memory map" item, including following links to other FAQ items?

Gee, you're fast!

That's a bit radical.

How about listing your detailed system specs?

How many MBs of unoffical addons are you starting up OFP with?

[screwtape 0]

it sounds radical, but i had another strange problem... after rightclicking an item the windows explorer crashes... -> im unable to use the -nomap comand)

hm...

This could very well be your problem.

OFP's RES\AddOns folder comes with about 200MBs of official files. Using the -nomap switch may very well not help you with a gig of addons.

Time to start implementing mod folders, which The FAQ items I pointed you to suggested you do.

[screwtape 0]

what a pity... so i had to sort out my addons... thats a hard decission...

...i know how to use the mod folders... the problem is how to group the plenty of addons...
