eJay 1 Posted March 3, 2007 Situation is similar to 1.02. When I click "Join" ArmA CTD. I reinstalled whole game, delete all config files and profiles, apllied patch and crash again every time. Please, give solution for that. It's totally leak of fun without playing with people My config: AMD X2 3800 GF 7900 GS 1 GB RAM mobo: Biostar Tforce4 Ultra AM2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bunkers 0 Posted March 4, 2007 Have you tried adding -maxmem=512 in your ArmA shortcut? I used to crash any time i pressed join, but not after I added that parameter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertfox 2 Posted March 4, 2007 Might be caused by a firewall issue. What firewall or internet security software do you use ? Are you using the on-board ethernet adapter ? Router config ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eJay 1 Posted March 4, 2007 Might be caused by a firewall issue.What firewall or internet security software do you use ? Are you using the on-board ethernet adapter ? Router config ? I have Kerio Personal Firewall and Realtek RTL8139 PCI Fast Ethernet card. I permitted ArmA to use all needed ports and entries. My mobo Nforce Networking Controller is off actually.

skinfaxe 0 Posted March 4, 2007 that string worked for me, thanks a lot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eJay 1 Posted March 4, 2007 ok, here is the catch: 1. I disabled firewall, added this command in command line and now CTD is in 1 of 5 sessions. I can connect with every server and host it but... 2. If someone want to join my server, he can't download mission file After few kb I see message about uploading file to player, but after couple seconds everything freeze and need to restart 3. I also noticed that enabling EAX option can corrupt game when joining multi (kernel32.dll error). Is it a problem with ethernet card?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 4, 2007 yes, it must be the ethernet card, since we all have the same problem. This is realy anoying, so it seems we have to wait for the next patch! I am a little anoyed since this issue was adressed in so many threads on this and other forums! And BIS dont blame it on our hardware settings since all other games work perfectly fine!

eJay 1 Posted March 4, 2007 I disabled Nforce network card in BIOS and problem is still there. Any solution? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 5, 2007 ejay, sometimes I am lucky with servers that are available for 60 players and more. Why, I dont know. Try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eJay 1 Posted March 6, 2007 I don't want to try, I want to play this hell game Now, i Have kernel32.dll problem   Can somebody from BIS tell that is definetely NVIDIA network controller on mobo? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#m-force - Hellknight666 0 Posted March 6, 2007 i have the same as all of you. can't join any server i see. everytime it says: arma has detected a problem and must be closed it started a few days after installing patch1.05. it worked for a while, but now i can't play with my team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ejanvi 0 Posted March 6, 2007 Mine simply reboots the PC. Never could connect once, with 1.04 or 1.05, same thing. And I don't take the bullshit about Firewall (don't have any) or router (I forwarded the ports). And my Mobo is not NVidia! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-EU_OF-Nomad 0 Posted March 7, 2007 you guys better love me for this..... buy me cookies and stuff........ i had the same problem and have now fixed it!!!!! The problem is that your OpenAL file is out of date, theres a simple fix: IMPORTANT: before you do this, make sure you delete this file - C:\WINDOWS\system32\OpenAL32.dll Then visit- http://developer.creative.com/article....&aid=46 and download the installer. running the installer will replace the file you deleted and sort the problem, please let me know if it works!

eJay 1 Posted March 10, 2007 Did you delete previous version of openal32.dll file in "system 32" folder? If not, try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ejanvi 0 Posted March 10, 2007 Yep. Removed previous version... Getting depressed... Never could log into MP since bought the game... Got a clean XP install, though... Not like if dirty one... I mean, as much as a clean install of Windows can be clean... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ejanvi 0 Posted March 10, 2007 Got the solution: I was in XP SP1. Installed SP2, and bing, all MP OK. Played all afternoon, no a single crash..... That simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted March 14, 2007 Got the solution: I was in XP SP1. Installed SP2, and bing, all MP OK. Played all afternoon, no a single crash..... That simple.
