_Snappy_ Posted August 24, 2003 Posted August 24, 2003 it has a high tendency to crash going into or coming out of space combat :( the best part of the game... the moment we've all been waiting for... ANYWAY... has anybody heard of this before and know of any ideas to fix it. i have a radeon 9700 with latest drivers (as if that should really matter!). also, i tried running it in win95 compatibility mode + force 640x480 resolution & the crashes still happen any help would be much appreciated. tia! =)
TK421 Posted September 1, 2003 Posted September 1, 2003 Never experienced problems with SWR and XP.Maybe your system is just unstable or did you load new models or something the game cannot handle Z'anthr saves the world. Sorry about the mess...
Guest Scathane Posted September 3, 2003 Posted September 3, 2003 TK's right... Unless there's something wrong with your copy of XP, your OS doesn't cause it to crash. I believe I have heared before that the game crashed with certain newer graphics cards...
stephenb Posted September 6, 2003 Posted September 6, 2003 Mine crashes too with windows xp and a Radeon 9500 pro. It crashes a lot less if it's in win95 compatability mode. I've just gotten into the habit of saving often. It crashes once every 200 turns or so. Stephen
the_mask Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 You're right Scath, this has been posted before. Also by a user with a new ATI card. Sorry to say this, but I'm glad my pcs and those of my relatives don't have any. I've had nothing but trouble back than with a Rage128 in my uncle's pc. Anyways, try a new driver, or at least one that's called bug-free. What DirectX version do you use ? http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif
Lord_La_forge Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 I had problems with my ATI card too. JK3 crashed frequently. Mask's right. I solved the problem by downloading the latest ATI driver for the card. Directx can't be a problem, unless it is damaged, or something... Please post the results after you tried with new driver!!
ElvisMiggell Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Not had any problems with my ATI, though it is slightly older. 9200 i think. Not sure. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
Lord_La_forge Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Was kind of shocking when my radeon 9700 (the Worlds "best" dislpay card) crashed in JK3
ElvisMiggell Posted October 19, 2003 Posted October 19, 2003 Bug? You got the latest drivers for it? Isn't JKIII deesigned for directX 9.0 as well? Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away
Lord_La_forge Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 As I wrote it, downloading the latest driver solved the problem.
the_mask Posted October 20, 2003 Posted October 20, 2003 post 1400, hey only 100 to go until I'm also a Warlord and only another 500 after that until I can choose me new rank. Booyakasha If JK3 crashed, Q3A and all the other games with that engine shouldn't have worked as well Well, after that checkered experience with my uncle's ATI card, I bought a GF2 back then and now I got a GF4200Ti with 128Ram. So far everything looks good and runs smoothely http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif
SOCL Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 I don't mean to post an off-topic comment, but I thought you guys might be interested. Okay, I read through...well, tried reading through this topic to see if I could contribute in some way, but instead I found myself utterly perplexed. To anyone who doesn't know much about the technicalities and specifics of computers (i.e. me), this thread is basically Latin (unless you know Latin...then it's Greek ). Okay, sorry about that, but take a second and quickly read through this thread and I think you'll see what I mean. Okay, sorry about that. As you were.

the_mask Posted November 5, 2003 Posted November 5, 2003 Well as long as you know what JK3 is, I wouldn't disturbed about that Basically its just a greek rant about how buggy the drivers of ATI cards can be http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif

LordVader Posted November 15, 2003 Posted November 15, 2003 I use XP home and have been having problems with SWR crashing. I did some experimenting and discovered that the NAV Auto-Protect was responsible for the crashes. I started disabling it when playing SWR and for 2 weeks now it hasn't crashed on me...

Trejiuvanat Posted November 16, 2003 Posted November 16, 2003 Odd. I use XP Home and NAV and haven't had any problems with SWR. No crashing, no nothing. http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif
the_mask Posted November 17, 2003 Posted November 17, 2003 XP and Nav 2k3 here, too. No problems ever, that's weird. Did you have that recycle-bin function activated ? Cause I switched that off. http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif
Trejiuvanat Posted November 18, 2003 Posted November 18, 2003 I didn't disable it and no prob. http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif
LordVader Posted November 24, 2003 Posted November 24, 2003 XP and Nav 2k3 here, too. No problems ever, that's weird. Did you have that recycle-bin function activated ? Cause I switched that off. I turned it off and have had no problems so far maybe that was it. Thanks for the feedback everyone. "You don't know the power of the dark side. I must obey my master." - Vader
the_mask Posted November 24, 2003 Posted November 24, 2003 No prob, glad I could help.I mainly deactivated mine, cause it ate too much space I needed elsewhere. Tss, 280gigs and still no space .... http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif
