Game total lock up while hosting...


Recommended Posts

Posted

For the first time ever in this series, I had my computer lock up while hosting a DF map that I generated with SYN_Vander's Easy Mission Generator on the Rhineland map.  There were three of us flying, along with a couple flights on Allied and Axis that were AI fighters.  I had just respawned in a Tempest, and was climbing out after takeoff, when my screen totally froze, and no controls worked, nor would the mouse or keyboard.  I could hear my engine still running, and the guys on comms said they were still flying normally.  I tried all the usual methods to get to the desktop, to no avail, so ended up having to push the power button on my computer and do a hard shut down to get out.

 

As I said, this has never happened before.  I'm thinking that it's a good thing that there are not more objects on the Rhineland map, as it would seem we are bouncing up against the limits of the current game engine technology of the sim.  I have hosted much larger, more complicated missions on the Kuban map without issue.

This happens consistently to me and my squadmate when we're hosting. Also generated mission on Rhineland map. He will have lockup about 30mins into mission, I had it about one hour in.

Happens too me as well when hosting. It's random and can happensl 30 minutes to 2hrs.

Happened again this evening.

Only on Rhineland map.  I can host the new planes on Kuban all the time without issue.

 

Hope there is a fix for this.
