Game Crash for WITP

Post by Roggenbier »

I own a Dell 5150 3.2 g P4 with 1.5 G in Ram and a ATI 9000 64 mB video card. It will return me during the air resolution phase to the initial game screen. It will load again and recycle identically. I have not been able to play a turn of the game on this computer-irrespective of the 1.0-1.21 version I use. I have been able to play the game on my Dell 300m without a problem. The 5150 plays Uncommon Valor without a problem. Please advise me about what I can do to get it working.

The game crash generally occurs after the third air attack in the air resolution phase. I have tried all the options available to determine whether the inclusion of any of them cause the crash, but without results.

is it a night attack, or day attack, also does it appear to be one type of plane, is it repeatable from one save, or does it happen every turn?

Appears to be a day attack, does not involve one kind of plane, happens with every scenario I've tried, and happens every turn. It's no use saving the game because I can't get through a single turn.

My only sugestion is that you might be afflicted by the sound issue, as there is no known bug causing a CTD during the combat phase. Try renaming your sound folder to no sound. Also send an email to support@matrixgames.com with your DXdiag attached

Sounds like the same problem that I have seen on two separate computers now. Did any of their suggestions work?

there is a bug in the night bombing routine, but none that I know of during day bombing.
