i've been playing this game for quite a while now and all the time i have the same problem, the game is very temperamental and although i can play fine, a lot of the time i am getting booted back to the desktop when clicking on buttons in the game menus!.I need to know if anyone else has had this prob and been able to solve it, i'm not sure of the cause, could it be a graphical problem? please help.IP: Logged |

Actually sex, what you could be experiencing, unfortunately, is probably pretty normal.This game crashes back to windows sometimes when you're just sitting in the lobby, much less in a game situation, or trying to launch a game. You can crash back to windows, crash to blue screen, crash back to the lobby, crash with shrimp gumbo, crash with shrimp pie, etc. We're all waiting on a mythical patch, that will be provided by a Shining Knight of the Air. As the legend goes, He will come, He will haveth the patch, and All will be Well. Mk10=225th= IP: Logged |

sex, the problem is with the networking code in SDOE.Michael Harrison has been working hard to produce a patch in his own time, not at the expense of Activision. He's been working on a new game and this takes priority. Patience... Elric [This message has been edited by Elric (edited 02-28-2000).] IP: Logged |

Are you using the latest sound drivers? I find that graphics rarely cause UI game crashes, those are saved for inflight problems.IP: Logged | |
