Cavtroop Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 OK, here is my setup: IBM/Lenovo T60p laptop Core Duo 2.0ghz ATI FireGL v5200 512MB vid card (same as X1600) 2 GB Ram I've tried multiple vid drivers, from Catalyst 7.1 to 7.4 (latest available for my laptop). I have also installed the XP dual core power patch, which resolved some graphical glitches I was getting. I have the following two problems (in addition to the other thread I have going, which remains unanswered): 1) I can cause a crash to desktop every time by doing the following in the 1st mission of the campaign: call in mortar strike. let mortars rain down for one round. cancel fire mission. before moving to next round, click on mortars icon again (when the icon says 'cancel mission' or something simiar') instant CTD, with the windows error 'Combat Mission Shock Force has caused an unknown error.' 2) 75% of the time, when exiting the game, my desktop is stuck at the resolution I was playing at (1024x768). The only way to restore the desktop resolution in Windows is to reboot. Even a 'driver reset' performed by ATI Tray Tools does not work, I *have* to reboot. This is incredible annoying, and the only game that does this to me. Any thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavtroop Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 I also seem to get random CTD (Crash to Desktop), this last time while saving the game in the tutorial campaign. "CMSF has genereated errors and will close" is the popup I get from Windows. In the Application Event log: Event ID 1000 Faulting application cm shock force.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module cm shock force.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x000e167f. Is there a way to get official support for this product? I have received none so far on this forum.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBlaster Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I am also getting frequent CTD's in multiplayer mode. Can't find any consistency except that it happens more frequent on larger battles. My friend who has a completly different set of harware experiences the same problem when we play on LAN or Internet realtime. My hardware is P4 3.4, ATI X800SE. His Intel Core Duo 2.6, Gefore 8800GTX 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottK Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I have experienced the same issue as Cavtroop's #1 above; upon aborting an in-progress artillery barrage the game crashes. Before the abort I tried to Adjust Target of the barrage but nothing happened when I clicked the button (2-3 times). My specs AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 3.00 GB RAM Radeon X800 XT 256 MB(8.205 drivers) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavtroop Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 And just as ScottK says, I can't 'Adujust Fire' either, nothing happens when I click the button. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottK Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Yep, this is happening every time I try. Should be easy to replicate and fix, right? BTW, I am NOT experiencing Cavtroops other issue, with the comps resolution being changed after app close. I run the game at 1280x960 and my desktop resolution is 1024x768. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
