Camel CTD

[ShrikeHawk]

I am having trouble with the A-Team Camel. I am trying it in SingleMission and every time

the mission finishes loading, FE crashes to the desktop. This is not happening for any

other plane. I installed it a long time ago and I can't remember for certain if it ever did

work correctly.

 

I re-downloaded the file and installed, same result. I checked that all weapons and sounds were

correctly placed, still the same result.

 

Any ideas why this is happening?

This question has been asked so many times that it is posted in one of the stickies.

From the sticky:

 

The Camel is a high poly count model (all those little details, including the working joystick in the cockpit) and may give problems (a freeze or a CTD) with some graphics cards. There is a fix to a file which almost always solves this.

 

Extract the file Flightengine.ini from FlightData.cat in your "Flight" folder. Find the part where it says:

 

[GraphicsSettings]

ZBufferDepth=24

MaxVertexCount=8192

MaxIndexCount=12288

MaxTextureCount=4096

MaxModelType=1024

MaxMeshPerScene=1024

MaxModelPerScene=1024

MaxLightPerScene=256

AspectRatio=1.333333

MinPixelSize=1.0

 

 

Change this to read:

 

[GraphicsSettings]

ZBufferDepth=24

MaxVertexCount=16384

MaxIndexCount=32768

MaxTextureCount=16384

MaxModelType=2048

MaxMeshPerScene=2048

MaxModelPerScene=4096

MaxLightPerScene=1024

AspectRatio=1.333333

MinPixelSize=1.0

 

 

That should get you flying the Camel reliably.

Thanks Fellas. That did the trick!
