EDcase 87 Posted July 20, 2010 Duno if this will help but I read that many ATI users had problems with Cat 10.6 and found 10.4 much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delete any custom missions you have installed in the installation directory and your Documents folder. It occurs when theres a major error with the init and description.

VitaminA 10 Posted July 20, 2010 Hm I think we're coming nearer to the roots of this problem, I deleted my custom missions in the installation directory and now it crashes way faster :D At the documents I only got a folder 'saved', one arma2oa.cfg and my XXX.arma2oaprofile- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it helped too. Its located in C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA Delete everything in that folder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VitaminA 10 Posted July 21, 2010 Damn it, even a reinstallation didnt help, few days ago all worked perfect :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stivraptor 10 Posted July 21, 2010 Same problem here with the scenerios, basicly i tried the suggested above, it only allowed 5-10 min playtime in one of the scenerio missions and then CTD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EDcase 87 Posted July 21, 2010 Unistall/Re-install won't get rid of files that have been created after the first install: like the temp files. Those must always be removed manually. This applies to most software installations. So if you create your own mission in the editor does it crash too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VitaminA 10 Posted July 21, 2010 I deleted them before reinstalling...own missons work fine if I start them in the editor...its just pressing the damn button, and in the demo it works without problems -.- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VitaminA 10 Posted July 22, 2010 (edited) SOLVED this problem...its very weird but all works perfect if I play in german language, if I change to english it again crashes!? Edited July 22, 2010 by VitaminA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seba1976 98 Posted July 22, 2010 SOLVED this problem...its very weird but all works perfect if I play in german language, if I change to english it again crashes!? What's your Windows localization? I'm very concerned with this problem, it seems to be affecting a lot of people. I still don't have the game and I'm downloading the demo, but the demo apparently works OK for the same people, so I don't know if it's gonna run on my rig. And BIS seems a little lost at the moment with this - so obvious - problem. I've read Marek said something like "I'm clueless, it works good in a similar box we have here." So it's disturbing so far.

Spudgunner 10 Posted July 22, 2010 I'm having a similar problem and made a post about it today. In my case, the CTD happens when I save manually or when autosave kicks in. Then I get an Out of Memory error (OOM) and CTD. I'm not sure now if this is the only time it happens - need to confirm. Its happening a lot since I started the Dogs of War HC mission.
