Keep getting dumped out of the sim

akdavis · 03-21-07, 06:27 PM

With an error like this:

AppName: sh4.exe AppVer: 1.0.0.0 ModName: d3d9.dll
ModVer: 5.3.2600.2180 Offset: 0008834b

I haven't even made it further into the game than the museum. I consistently get errors after viewing ships for a bit.

Oh, and I don't know quite what to say about the aircraft featured in the museum. Yikes!

Did you opt to install DirectX with the game?

I unchecked "install DirectX 9" since I thought I had the latest, but when I tried to start the game, it gave me a similar error. After exploring the DVD and installing DirectX off of it, it worked just fine.

I installed DirectX during the game installation.

Here's another error report:

AppName: sh4.exe AppVer: 1.0.0.0 ModName: sh4.exe
ModVer: 1.0.0.0 Offset: 00220805

This really sucks. I can't play the game for more than few minutes without being dumped out with one of these errors. Happens even if I just walk away from the game and don't touch a thing.

These types of errors can be caused by your Anti-Virus software affecting the dll files when being extracted and the correct registering of them. You might try un-installing the game, disabling AV, then re-installing.

Knowing Akdavis, he won't be running any AV for sure.
