NEXUIZ IS CRASHING!

[KillaGrunt]

I am having a problem with Nexuiz. Obviously. It seems to keep crashing. Could anybody help me?

Also, post more details (operating system, error message, when it crashes, what happens when it crashes, what maps you loaded/tried to load, your shoe size, your mother's maiden name, your graphics card, the name of the second JFK shooter, etc).

Well... i do have a mac os X. And it doesn't really crash. It freezes. And never unfreezes unless i shut off my computer using the power button.

Hello Gentlemen,

unfortunatelly Nexuiz 2.4.2 is also crashing on my new PC. . . .

What happens:
Sometimes the startupscreen (main menue) is already colorful crap. When i switch back to the windows explorer screen, and then again back to the game, then then menue is suddenly working. . . . .however during the game itself, the screen freezes completely and the PC has to be hard resetted. These freezes happen 2 seconds till some minutes after entering the game. I tried already to play with the Nexuiz settings (switch off all extras, Switch off OpenGL 2.0, tried all resolutions) but it didnt help. Also playing with the ATI driver (change quality settings, switch off A.I. . . . ) didnt help.

The System:
ATI 4850 512MB with latest Catalyst 8.8 driver
ASUS P5Q board with P45 Chipset
Intel E8400 Wolfdale
2GB RAM
WinXP SP2
DirectX 9C

No Overclocking or other tweaking done.

I suspect strongly that the ATI driver causes the problem. Does anybody else have the same experience? . . . . .and maybe even a workaround?

Thank you very much in advance


EDIT: I shifted this Issue to an own thread, because i think that the ATI Radeon 4850 is some kind of bread & butter Videocard, which might affect more users.

Hardy to say as i do not use a ATI/amd card.. You could try the command line parameter -safe that will disable every single advanced bit and feature.. even ati cards should be able to run then, albeit slow. If not even that is working it might be sound or something else then.
Slowly find out whats wrong

How can I keep a log when nexuiz freezes and I have to shut of the computer using the power button?
