Patch v1.02.14821 Bug thread

jg27_mc · #1 06-26-2011, 11:22 PM

I am getting launcher.exe crashes almost every time I fly the quick mission "free flight". This odd crash seems to only be happening when performing a vertical dive towards the sea firing all the guns of my Bf 109 E3.

Here are my logs:

Had a strange bug today while flying online in the Ju-88, tried to use the bombsight and my game turned into a slideshow (1FPS every 5-10seconds), sound died simultaneously aswell. In 3rd person it was still flyable but FPS dropped steadily till a launcher.exe crash occured.

for what it's worth the JPG refered to is a 109 skin from someone on the server but noone else reported perf issues , other Ju-88 pilot who was flying tried his bombsight and didn't have issues either

JU-88 startup sequence:

It seems that the JU88 cockpit has fuel cocks #3 -#8 which are selectable and can be switched on with the mouse but, are completely useless because you need to open cock #1 for the left engine and #2 for the right engine but they are not selectable on the cockpit and you can only open them setting keyboard keys.

EDIT: No bug

The rest of the fuel controls in the switchboard (on the left side of the cockpit) are probably fuel pumps.

Thanks for the advice and explanations guys.

An access violation occurs in unmanaged or unsafe code when it attempts to read or write to memory that has not been allocated, or to which it does not have access. Not all reads or writes through bad pointers lead to access violations, so an access violation usually indicates that several reads or writes have occurred through bad pointers, and that memory might be corrupted.

do u have a way to test your memory?

Thank you for the feedback.

Done that with prime95, IntelBurnTest and Memtest86+ v4.20 during my last OC settings not long ago (+- 2 months).

Will test memory again to see if I can find anything...

I was suspicious of my HDD raid 0 configuration, although the drives seem to be ok, done some tests already. I'm also playing CoD Black Ops and the game is running flawless in max settings 4x AA. Actually my system is bullet proof for the last 2 months or so. I only started to get this errors with the latest patch (coincidence?). A memory leak maybe?

@jg27 mc a memory leak is a distinct possibility considering we had that in the beginning with the DED servers and a DED server is just the CORE of the game .

Thanks for the info. I hope I don't get this error when flying online, haven't flown online much lately...

~S~

You can click on them "through" the seat if you hover the mouse above them but yes, it's easier to set them to a keyboard command.

As for the rest of the fuel switches, these are part of the fuel delivery system.

The Ju88 has a lot of different fuel tanks and configurations (like Robtek said, with optional ones in the bomb bays) but only one feeder tank per engine. What this means is that each engine only gets fuel from one tank and the fuel from the rest of the tanks need to be pumped into those feeder tanks first because they can't be pumped directly to the engine (they are connected in series). The extra switches are there to let the pilot control which tank will be pumped into the feeder tank first, or close one down in case of leaks, etc.

That being said, i don't exactly know how it works so i just turn everything on
