Zebulon Pleasure Beast Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Battlefront 1.01 P4 3.6ghz X800 Pro with the latest drivers 2GB RAM Windows Vista So, basically, whenever I select a unit, the game freezes for a few seconds and eventually, usually within a few minutes of playing the game locks up without giving any particular error message. Help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niskalaukaus Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 This exactly same error happens to me, after only 1-2 minutes in game it freezes and windows cursor appears on the screen and CMSF stops responding. I tried this with 7.4 and 7.7 Catalyst, both having the same problem. I might also add that when I select units with mouse the game halts for 1-2seconds or often stops responding&throws to desktop with the error My specs are; Motherboard: 4CoreDual-VSTA chipset VIA PT880 Ultra Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E4400 @ 2.9ghz Memory: 2048MB RAM Video Card: Radeon X800XT PE 256MB Sound Card: 7.1 CH Windows® Vista™ Premium Level HD Audio (ALC888 Audio Codec) Operating System: Windows Vista™ Ultimate 32bit Seems to be a Vista and ATI gfx related problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kineas Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Played the demo on a 2.4Ghz P4, ATI X800. Freezes a lot, barely playable. Especially likes to freeze for the arrow keys (camera control). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 For those with AMD 64, we have one user who emailed a working configuration: The Microsoft hotfix is installed. The AMD drivers are installed. The AMD Dual Core Optimizer is NOT installed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kineas Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Found a way to play the demo without too much annoyance. Don't touch the keyboard except for the command shortcuts. Camera control keys, zoom caused the problem for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarball Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Originally posted by MikoyanPT: Same for me, crash every time i left click a unit. Core 2 ATI drivers Windows vista This is the combo causing the problem - this is not an esoteric combination of gear. I think we're screwed until ATI becomes aware of the problem and incorporates it into one of the next Catalyst driver releases. Until then, this demographic of the customer base is screwed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarball Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 The problem is this: A company the size of Battlefront is not likely employing a professional testing company to check for hardware compatibility. It would seem that missing among the beta testers was a single tester with this combo: Windows Vista 32-bit ATI Core 2 (although this may be less of the issue) This is the difference between a small-budget title and a larger title. Those of us in this boat - certainly a reasonable software/hardware combo - are truly up the creek for what might possibly be weeks. I can see how OpenGL would be great for cross-platform - unfortunately, OpenGL is a weak-spot for Windows Vista drivers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 AMD Dual Core Optimizer is the likely suspect. Turn it off and see how it works. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabal23 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 How do you turn off the AMD Dual Core Optimizer??? If you are asking people to follow steps to fix things then explain HOW you did it. We are all not tech savvy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaguarUSF Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 If you run the exe file you used to install it, it will uninstall it. It is here at the top of the page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulon Pleasure Beast Posted July 29, 2007 Author Share Posted July 29, 2007 I don't have dual core, so it is not that what is causing the problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yair Iny Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Hi Steve, I think the focus on AMD dual core is wrong. At least myself and Tarball don't even have an AMD dual core system, and the error in the event viewer is in the ATI open GL driver. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
