Unable to save on "Dogs of War" mission(Too many virtual blocks requested)

Recommended Posts

Hi

I would like to post here my "adventures" since i bought this game.

At the beginning, there was some normal bugs like i was used on OFP(best game for its time in my opinion), but then some strange things started to happen, mainly from Badlands...

So, this is the situation(most from dogs of war):

1- I request a car on the "buy units" menu, close it and when the car leaves the factory it keeps going arround and kill my squad and i can't do nothing because someone(little john, swordsman,etc) are talking to me via radio, and i cant select my units and keep them in a safe place.

2-I send some T72 or BMP's to capture a point, and it just turns upside down somewhere, it's just so stupid...then i have to disband units and spend another 30 mins to get back to base and buy a new tank.

3-Upon lopotev's heli extraction, when heli lands on HQ, my squad disembark automatically, and they all get killed(but lopotev keeps alive), i dont know why!!!!must be the fan blades...after 30 attempts, they finally only got wounded and i healed 4 and 4 healed the rest.

4-There are some gamer unfriendly triggers, like lopotev's delivery to Russians, i delivered him, and my BMP attacked Spetznatz, but the UAZ near Lopotev exploded(i dont know why) and he dies. Nothing changed on tasks, so i kept capture points leaving the russian base for the end(as last objective), so i tried to enter on the base with 4 T72's and my "guys" just become blind, they act like T90's are friends and T90's keep shooting "me" and my tanks DO NOTHING, it even doesnt appear red units on the map.

5 and worst of all- There's nothing worse than play a game and can't save its progress, it all kept well till dogs of war, at the beggining of the mission there were some crashes to desktop, but nothing serious. After 4 hours on that mission, i just can't save games, it keeps crashing to desktop with a message saying "too many virtual blocks requested"!!I erased some save files from "my documents" for the game write new ones, and it keeps doing the same thing. I just can save at max 2 times per play. I unchecked "read-only" option at ARMA2 folder on my documents, changed the target to -maxmem=1024, and it doesn't solve the problem.

I am now restarting the dogs of war mission and i don't want to get the risk of not save all the progress, so i would like some help on this.

My system:

I7 @ 2,79Ghz 3x120mm Fan Radiator Watercooling

Radeon HD4670 DDR3 512mb

Hitachi 1TB 7200RPM 32mb

3GB 1333 DDR3 Corsair RAM

Vista Ultimate X86

Sorry for the long text, but i'm kinda disapointed, because this is a unique tactical game, and we can't play it with pleasure when it has more bugs than any other game i ever played, it's like you drive a brand new Ferrari and the car keeps breaking down every 50 miles, beacause it has several engine problems to be solved. We all appreciate BI effort to build such a great game like this, but notice, we are paying for this product....

Thanks

It happens more often as i progree into the mission, now it's almost impossible to save. Even Autosave crashes and bring back to XP. May be a error in the mission that can't be save. And save and loading take more longer now

I have this problem too in dogs of war. Crashing with "cannot commit" or "too much virtual blocks requested" when I save. At first it was a random error now I cannot save anymore. I've got CTD every 30 min too. Submitted my crashlog in "Bug #2425" on bugtgracker.
