Just got an error "Can't Allocate Additional 6291480 bytes?" after playing for several hours straight.

This is the second time I have gotten this error which crashed me out of the game, so I figured I would post it. It happened while I was saving the game after beating Duke Sov, so I am not sure if the error is talking about memory or hard drive space. Either way, I had have plenty of both when it happened.

I have 283GB free on my hard drive and 4GB of memory. At the time of the crash KB.exe was using a whopping 1.157GB and everything else was taking up 1.48GB so I should have had about 1.3GB left.

If I restart the game and load up my pre-battle save game KB.exe only uses about 670MB of RAM. Seems like there might be a memory leak somewhere.

I have attached both the 32 and 64 Bit DxDiags in case you need them. Also, you may want to up the forums "Max Filesize" for .txt files from 19.5KB to about 40KB so that people can attach them without zipping them up or spamming the thread with it.

Enjoy!

I get this error about once an evening as well. Usually when the game has been running for a few hours. Does seem like a memory leak, so save frequently.

If you still have the problem of no sound goto the default.ini file located in the data folder of Kings Bounty.
Open with notepad.

Scroll to the bottom and locate # Integer parameter
setf ~cl_force_soundcard -1 change the 1 to a 0 so it should now look like this

# Integer parameter
setf ~cl_force_soundcard -0

Close and save.

and there's your sound

Will this also work with Armored Princess/Crossworlds?

I still get random crashes. I think night time might have somthing to do with it. I could play none battle 5 minutes before a crash as long as i kept saving i could load and keep playing.
crashes all the time now about every minute now. Somtimes saves are crupted and have to reload to older save. Have got directx failed crash at night, once. If I do to much stuff to fast it crashes.
