JGrigby8 Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 As my previous post show I just installed the game for the first time in years. I am running Xp pro and the game crashes every hour or two. I am learning to save frequently but it's still frustrating. I have not used REBED at all. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

TK421 Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 Naturally, your system configuration is not the problem. It may be XP, but I don't think it is something you can change.Maybe you can run the game in compatibility mode. However, I never experienced any poblems with running the game uner XP. Z'anthr saves the world. Sorry about the mess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_mask Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 Well, I wouldn't say overkill yet. My XP2600 also has no probs with the game The other components look good as well, but from past experience I'd tend to blame your ATI card, or rather it's drivers. Try some new ones and tell us, if it worked. Is it just Rebellion, that crashes, or are there other games as well with that behaviour ? http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGrigby8 Posted January 4, 2004 Author Share Posted January 4, 2004 No just rebellion. I save like a mad man now but it still catches me off guard sometimes. I just got the drivers for the card in late October or early Novemeber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGrigby8 Posted January 19, 2004 Author Share Posted January 19, 2004 Interestingly enough it seems to crash about 3x as often when playing as the empire vs. alliance side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmdr_Vessery Posted January 22, 2004 Share Posted January 22, 2004 JGrigby8, I just re-installed Rebellion and started playing also.. I noticed that my video card was "out performing" the game.. So, I started adjusting my FSAA settings.. Does your video card(Radeon) have a manual slider bar for FSAA? I've noticed that if you have FSAA turned off, (marked off), the game crashes back to the desktop.. I am also running XP and have had a small problem with the video side... My resolution to this problem was to check the box, "Application controlled", which by the way is not off, nor manually set in terms of the FSAA slider bar. Just an Idea. Good luck Cmdr_Vessery Cmdr_Vessery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JGrigby8 Posted January 23, 2004 Author Share Posted January 23, 2004 Thanks but what is fsaa? Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmdr_Vessery Posted January 23, 2004 Share Posted January 23, 2004 Full Screen AntiAliasing Basically, it is a function of the video card that takes a line and puts a pixel inbetween the pixels that are they current. So, what it does is takes out the jagged lines on objects by smoothing them out. here's a link to a article from Nov 2003 describing FSAA.
