Bulldogs 10 Posted July 17, 2009 Little update on the situation. I haven't had any problems with Arma 2 but yesterday I bought a new ADSL modem/router (Belkin FD58633au4A) and now everytime I try to connect to a MP game it gets to "receiving data" then CTD's. I'll reinstall my old router to see if the problem vanishes, and if so then I should be able to figure out the problem soon (at least on the multiplayer side) Forgot to mention that the crash happens under XP, Vista and Windows 7 (Running Steam Arma 2) ---------- Post added at 12:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 AM ---------- Update : I located the problem. My new router was set (by default) to block all external icmp's (pings from the server) disabling the block fixed the problem, haven't had a ctd since Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
private plowjoy 0 Posted July 17, 2009 Update - I ran a memtest86+ v2.11 soak overnight (9+ hours) - NO Errors reported - 2GB Memory 100% OK..** So my final thoughts on the matter is that it's the game that doing it.. or else if it was my memory I'd be seeing other wierd stuff on my other games (which probably thrash my system in CPU, GPU & memory terms also but they are more stable).. It's Arma2 issue - it's a pile of junk at the moment!!!!! (well for MP as I've not really got into SP).. ** Like any software it's going to be buggy.. and I have to accept that.. I just hope BI get round to fixing it as it kinda spoils the overall experience.. especially whensome co-ops take a few hours to complete and with the damn ranking system, if youre kicked out, you get busted back to Private. I'd Like to thank forum members for the help the have provided me (esp. Private Plowjoy).. Regards Lima-14 You're very welcome, mate. When a game offers as much as Arma2 does, i'm happy for every single person I can offer some help to. ---------- Post added at 03:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ---------- Little update on the situation.

wooly-back-jack 10 Posted July 19, 2009 omg at last a thread that makes sense and my sig picture doesn't apply :D so the moral of the story is, it's not your hardware. Stop wasting money and wait for BIS to fix it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ejachan 10 Posted July 22, 2009 S! I was with the same problem (Faulting application arma2.exe, version 1.2.0.58134) But FaHCore_76.exe was running on my computer. I know how work this program, but after uninstall of FahCore, I've no more CTD ! So, see if it's running on your computer, it can be the solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
schurem 0 Posted July 22, 2009 i found i can prevent CTD in my game by not having post-processing effects AND anti aliassing turned on. turn either one of those off, and it becomes stable. at least, that's what works for my box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arma2disapointed 10 Posted July 22, 2009 Try to clock down the CPU and ram if they are clocked, as i could notice Arma2 is sensitive to that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kylania 568 Posted July 29, 2009 My iCore7 isn't overclocked and I've underclocked my factory OC GTX 260. I've hard set it at the proper amount of RAM, I've run tests and my hardware checks out. I give up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kremator 1065 Posted July 29, 2009 IMHO - It's making the game unplayable.. it's putting me off this game.. and making me wish 'OPF2 - Dragon Rising' was available right now (as much as I hate to say it - as I've played this game and every iteration since OPF) Yes because as we KNOW OPF2 - Dragon Rising is gonna be BUG FREE ! If you HAVE played OFP and Arma1 then you will KNOW that these things WILL be fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Switch the video memory to High.(or lower) I had this CTD as long as I can remember with ArmA and A2, I was always playing Default with a 1GB. Finally someone told me to lower the video memory and I haven't received this CTD yet. Somewhere there's a list where someone discusses what setting to use with various amounts of video memory. I wish I could find it cause it was money. It finally fixed my problem after years and the fix was as easy as lowering the vid mem setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BUT: 1. the only software i installed was nTune (can't get rivatunner to work on win 7) and flash shockwave player. 2. i did no changes to my router or network connection....

nyran125 10 Posted August 7, 2009 turn your graphics on medium and see if the problem persists. with AA OFF. Why your even bothering trying to play this gam eon very high is beyond me. Very high is for computer hardware a year or 2 down the track. Expect crashes if your trying to run this game maxed out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kozzy420 21 Posted August 7, 2009 Wierd, I havn't had a Crash To Dekstop yet. 5 HOurs of playing at my friends house and about 8 hours on my PC. Hope it doesnt happen to me. But then again alot of people said they had CTD all the time on Empire Total War and that game only gave me one CTD in 120 hours with the game. :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lt_darkman 0 Posted August 9, 2009 pufu have you tried EVGA Precision? It's handles the overclocking aspects of rivatuner or nTune in a much slicker package and works fine with Win7 x64. P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grizzleguts 10 Posted March 28, 2010 We at kellys heroes are trying to get an air display working. Seems fine with two people in the air but when you get more than that its crash to desktop time. Sometimes two of us at exactly the same time? Tried different maps planes settings to no avail .Shame it would have been awesome!
