In fact, your previous ClimateZones.tga was perfect, not more than 1024 times the compression of time, it will not return the desktop。

I never got CTD with the last one I did either. But, since some folks were still getting CTD when at high compression, I took another look at it. The thing that was causing it was that in a few places I had left two climate zones that were not sequential touching. In other words in some places, I had left arctic touching sub tropical and similar situations.

I think with this ClimateZones.tga that no one will get CTDs anywhere at any time compression(even when greater than 1024). Several folks have tested it, and the fix works, but I would not mind even more people trying it just to make absolutely sure. W_clear, you are more than welcome to include this new ClimateZones.tga in any future versions.

I would also like to apologize to everyone for not simply fixing this the first time. I simply had no way to know that it would cause problems since it does not give me CTD(and I routinely run at 2048 TC).

Hey Steel, just tried your most current fix for the climate zones.

At TC of 2048 I CTD'ed between Dover and Calais.

At TC of 1024 I did not receive a CTD, although I hit a major lag spike and dropped from 65FPS to 8FPS, but I'm sure that's because of the ships in the straight.

More to Come

Thank you Wolfling04, I will check the area out, and clean it up even further. I am also thinking that if you go through too many climate zone changes to quickly that you may CTD at high compression. So the coastal zones may have to get a bit more work.

No problem Viking, glad to help, and the low FPS were like 10 patrol boats and an escorted convoy all in that area.

Please specify exactly where and how it is occurring.
