Canadair Posted April 20, 2008 Posted April 20, 2008 (edited) I am setting up a new install and I get random CTD, (roughtly around dates from 1968t o1980) about 1 to 4 ratio (1 CTD 4 OK) when I click to go to the singlemission hangar screen (I-E) after the plane , date, type or mission selection To your experience, what could cause a CTD in this phase?

+MigBuster Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Something could be missing - have had crashes there before when the jet I was using had a nation that wasnt in Nations.ini Determine if this happens more with the jet and mission type selected Does it give any errors? Quote

Of course not: no errors.. grr a toll that should be asked to TK would be a crash-logger, would help in modding loads. What is strange is that it is random, nw it works, now it doesn't. What I observed is that some planes crash in ayear range (around '70s) and works from 80s and on It is not a big deal, I am just curious to understand why! Edited April 21, 2008 by Canadair Quote
+MigBuster Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Its almost certainly a mod - trace your steps back if you can. Is it possible you may have added back a modded ini file that originated from an earlier game version to the one you have it patched to? Quote

This is not impossible; obviously must be a mod, and the install I am setting up is quite the patchwork. For example what happens is that I pick the L-29 in 1971, for example and crash. I estart try again, and crash; so then I pick a A-7E in 1992, and it works; I go back to pick the L-29, and it works. Seem really date-related. Thanks for the moral support , jake. Quote
+bobrock Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Happens to me too at times and I finally figured out it's caused by the mission type. Certain planes simply refuse to do missions they're not supposed to do (like an F-14 doing CAS). Try changing the mission and see if it works. I don't know if it's only my installation (I guess it's pretty messed up), hope it helps. Quote
