Sorry if the "I do not expect to get help" did sound a bit weird, its just the truth. It's not that I think ppl in here aren't helpful or such a thing. I just don't think the problems I have can be solved with the usual suggestions. I've read them all, I'm following this board and also followed the old one. And yep, I'm aware of the fact that none of the forum users is sitting in front of my pc and therefor can't help much. I can't provide much more infos than I already did. I still have the nex 1.2 and 1.5 here on my pc, yep and the 1.5 is still running without problems. I did test that last night after a usual 2.0 crash. Sad thing is that one isn't able to use the "old" version on the new servers and to find populated 1.5 servers is quite hard, as it is to find populated nex servers in general (with reasonable pings). I didn't change anything on my pc before and after I installed nex 2.0.
I'm going to try the -condebug thing, but I doubt that it will help much if I have to reset my pc to be able to use it again.
It might be a heat problem, but then I wonder why it doesnt occur in other games that I'm playing (doom3, hl2, tremulous, ut, (nex 1.5)), my proz temperature is in his usual state around 56°C, can't say anything about the one from my gfx card, since it doesn't have sensors.
I didn't want to complain at all about the new nexuiz build , just wanted to say that not all is that great as most of the people here seem to like it to be.
Maybe,
-if you use linux,
-got a 4ghz pc 2gigs of ram and a nvidia card
-you don't care to play other games (that exists only in the windows world) and therefor did spend all your money to build your pc around this game)
you don't notice any bad things.
But I can assure you that, on my machine, the new version seems much more buggy than the old one.
It starts with being unable to minimize it, cause it comes back with a black screen only,
( And no, that isn't cause of poor memory management of winnt systems with memory below 1gig as urmel stated in another post. Sorry, but its kinda absurd, to blame the os for that. the poor memory management is to search @ the applications side itself, since these probs doesn't occur with commercial games which are using much more memory than nex (also Nexuiz 1.5 didnt got these probs at all))
and ends with crashes that I never had before with any other nexuiz version.
I really like the nexuiz gameplay and I think vermeulen did a great job developing it. No doubt there, but buying another pc or gfx card just to be able to run nexuiz is just a bit too much for me
.
I will try to get a logfile anyhow..
@tChr: I tried both versions, not only the sdl-version as I stated already in my first post.

and hf anyway!
. Do you still have the older version installed? Does it still run without problems? Have you overwritten your old installation or have you used an other folder?
