CTD's

[hector]

I had quite a few ctd in the first patch and i thought the problem had gone away with patch 1.2 but today it started again.
I had just assaulted a convoy, sinking two and damaging one and one further interesting one which "i think" was a "old split freighter".This last one sat half in and half out of the water burning furiously and whenever i would go to next view and see this particular ship i would get a ctd.Also,after four or five hours i surfaced and it was still burning away and barely peeking above the water line. I finished it off with the deck gun and as soon as it began to sink and i was moving off,ctd.I tried exactly the same thing twice more with the same result but on the third try,i left the ship alone and just sailed away and got no ctd.I am now moving onto my next patrol grid and have since sunk two more ships with no ctd.

I just thought i would mention this here and hope that maybe one of the modders could see a pattern or something that might help and cure these.There is some sort of corruption happening but i dont know why or what it may be.Is it tied to that particular ship in that particular condition etc?

This may have something to do with your PC rig or maybe the drivers.
Post your specs here so readers can see what you have !!

Whats the memory on your 7900 gtx? What driver are you using?
I use ATI cards myself so I am not up on the GForce cards & drivers.
Maybe someone else can help with those specs...

91.31 "force ware"?.
The drivers are working well with titles like Armed Assault,OFF ,PF and others so i have been reluctant to change the drivers for this reason.

Thanks for trying to help.:up:

Do you possibly Alt-Tab do desktop during play? That usually makes games unstable.

No mate,i never do that.I really posted this as i thought it was interesting in the way it happened.When i got a ctd with patch 1.1,i could never get past a certain point no matter what i tried but with 1.2 i "was" able to continue because i did something slightly different on the third try.I thought one of the modders might have spotted something and could maybe have come up with something that would help those who get the odd ctd.

Thanks for trying to help,it is appreciated.
