ToW 2: Kursk 1943 on Steam!

Yes I did see the post and changed the affinity as you suggested. I have newest drivers for all my hardware.

AMD Phenom II X4 940 @ 3.0 Ghz
ATI Radeon 4870
Windows XP 32-Bit

I can post a log file after my next crash if you think that would help. Thank you for your quick reply. I haven't experienced any problems with TOW1 either in about 20 hrs of gameplay.

You play all tow games on the same system? Post log.lst here please.

WWThreadPool.destroy(): Thread pool is destroyed

[Sneaksie]

It's a generic error, difficult to determine why it happens in your case. Kursk has higher memory requirements than Africa, maybe the game runs out of memory. When it happens, on first run of a scenario or after you load save or new map several times?

That particular time occurred after loading a quick save. It doesn't happen every time I load a save. I can start a new scenario on a fresh installation and have it crash just the same sometimes 5 minutes in. I don't think memory is an issue. I have 4 GB's and I haven't seen the game demand anywhere near what is available during play.

[Sneaksie]

If it crashes not after loading a save, post log.lst here as well, that error should be different.

WWThreadPool.destroy(): Thread pool is destroyed

There is my latest crash. It was also while loading a game. I don't know if it provides you with any new insight to my problem. I did a re installation and reinstalled graphic drivers also and now it seems I am only getting crashes on loading. Crashes are very frequent upon loading, I would say 65%-75% of the time I get a crash. If I get a crash w/o loading I will upload that log also. Thanks again for looking into this issue.

How much video RAM your card has? 512Mb? It should be enough really, i don't know while it crashes upon loading (in your log file it says failure to load trees).

It's also worth to mention that your PC will definitely benefit from installing a 64-bit Vista or, much better, Win7. You have 4Gb RAM, but only 3Gb are being used now in your 32-bit OS. While in theory there should be no difference between Kursk on 32-bit and Kursk on 64-bit systems, in practice Kursk on 64-bit happens to be a lot more stable (i don't recall crash reports from Win7 64-bit users) because of more effective memory management. Of course, it's not worth to install 64-bit because of just one game though.

Try to lower graphics settings. Turn off HDR (memory hog), high sky and landscape detail, maybe set unit detail to medium (btw, turning off shadows will give you around 100% performance boost). If crashes disappear, then it's a not enough memory problem, probably not enough video RAM.

Thank you for the reply, I will try the suggestions and see what happens. My video card has 1GB of ram on it.

This game reminds me of an old DDOS 1980s game.
