Crashing to Desktop in MP

[hach]

Since tonight as soon as i click on Host or Join in MP i am crashed back to Desktop.

100% every time.

Any ideas?

Thanx

hmm i would have thought by the amount of posts you have made you would have read this earlier.
this has been an issue, and a very very annoying one, the only logical and workable solution is to shutdown your pc complately and try again, it works with me.

this is something to do with framerates, and hopefully a patch will comeout to fix this, hopefully.

still surprised that you have not read this prob before.

anyway this is tech thread so post it in the tech forums and erado for the 9 millionth time will try explaining it to you.

but i promise you restarting your pc is the only solution at present un less you are a compltet pc boff and can tweak the hz settingsf or the amount of res power your graph card and monitor your machine can handle.

I know ur problem m8. Playing fine yesterday day.. log off.. log back on 2 hours later and crashed every time i join/host a game. This went on for about 2 hours. Then out of nowhere on about the 30th attempt i get into a game.. stay there.. and not have problems since (bar the odd drop or to at host e.t.c. So anyway it just seems a bit random.. day before i spent an hour with the "account details wrong" bit... and with the occasional log on error... again another 20 trys to get on. This server sucks.. lets just hope they sort it soon as i can forsee many ppl who arent as dedicated to the game as i am giving up after a couple of trys http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif..

Maybe i have'nt seen this b4'because i don't give a rats ass about Technical Issues until i get one. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

Anyway like my Esteemed Colleague Lamorak says it fixes itself.

I am now getting back on.

Rebooting does NOT help.

I just started getting that bug again just now and I rebooted and I'm STILL dealing with it. Really fuggin' frustrating especially when there's only one game up right now (Tosa's) and I want in and I couldn't get in when it was 1/8, 3/8 and now it's 7/8 and I just crashed again.

ARGH.

Just tried to get in another game - 4 crashes. AROKJGNHGBHRSBPOHGPIURHYWT_(*@Y(*%@^%*(@#%()*#@^@@$&A#%&#$@53

edit - FIVE TIMES.

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH.

I played three fine games not two hours ago.

Now? NOTHING BUT DROPS TO DESKTOP.

There is a dude named Phoenix experiencing this too right now cuz I was chatting with him in the Gamespy chatroom thing in MTW. We're joking around with everyone else in there like "hey watch me disappear from the player list (aka crash) as I click Join Game on this new game! Weeee!"

Still happening and some RTK clan guys are experiencing it too.

It's like Join Game turned into an Exit Game button.

Yep

I was Crashing to Desktop.
Then ok.

Now i am crashing again.

It's definately a MP/Gamespy issue as SP plays fine.

[JRock]

I'm STILL crashing to desktop when I click Join Game.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

It happens to me periodically too.

I can say, on behalf of GilJaysmith of CA, that it is being worked on. If you want to help out save your crash.txt file to be mailed to Gil.

Each time the game crashes, it saves some info to a file named crash.txt. It will save over the file, so even if you crash 100 times, the crash.txt file will only have one crash worth of info in it.

I would give you GilJay's email address to send them too, but I don't want him to get flooded with crash.txt files....so, for now, after every crash, rename the .txt file to "crash1.txt", "crash2.txt" etc. By the time you get a bunch of 'em, Gil will be reading this post and will tell you where to send them.

Unfortunately, it appears like this problem may be a tough nut to crack, so all the help we can give CA is appreciated by Gil.

Good luck Gil.

I see no such file, however I do see an error.log file in the "C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War" directory, and here it is in its entirety:

What is this C:\Crusaders crap?

I just started up, selected a server and clicked Join Game and was booted to the desktop again.

Happenin again....

[JRock]

Hahahahahahahahaha

I can click on Continue to log onto Gamespy, then once I'm finally logged on, if I click Log Off, it will crash back to desktop. I don't even have to click Join Game or Create Game, even just Log Off will do it.

AOKENJTPRWUT(*W$&)%(*@&%)(*@&$_*#@%*@()*%@&(%&@)*(%^@)(*%&(@*#%*(@#&%*(#@^%)(*^@#%*&@#%(*@

After about 2 hours of trying to get in a game but it crashing to desktop every time, I had just FINALLY gotten one game to work about 15 minutes ago and then as I was grouping my troops I accidentally hit the Windows key instead of Control and that f*cks up the game so I had to kill it with Task Manager (because no, you can't just get back in the game, it gives you a black screen, not the actual battlefield).

Then it just crashed again from then on (even after rebooting.)

If anyone does get a crash.txt file from any of their exploits then please send it to "medievalcrashes@hotmail.com".

Don't expect an acknowledgement or a reply, but all the evidence people can provide will be useful.

Please only mail if you have a crash.txt file timestamped for when you got the crash. Please include a description of what you did to get the crash.

Please also include the last page or so of error.log... not the whole thing, which is generally irrelevant rubbish.

With your first crash report, can you also send a dxdiag.txt file if possible. Find and run dxdiag.exe, which should be installed as part of DirectX, and click on "Save All Information" to save your system config as a text file.

Can you please zip up these files if you send them... I'm a cheapskate so I've only signed up for a 2Mb Hotmail account, and although I'll try to check it every day, it could still get flooded. And you'll only be hurting the people behind you http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Finally, this offer is only open for the next week or so, I'll post to say when I'm not interested anymore, and at that point I'll stop checking the account.

I've never gotten this "crash.txt" file, but would you want me to send you the error.log and dxdiag.txt in a zip anyway?

I'm asking before I send so I don't waste space in your email account.

It'll be created in the game directory where the EXE was installed. It gets created anew each time there's a crash, except for certain extremely fatal system crashes where the game doesn't have a chance to diagnose itself.

So if you do find a crash.txt in the directory after a crashout, check its timestamp to make sure it's only a minute or two old; otherwise it will be related to an earlier crash.

Hope that's clearer...

I've never had one created. All my errors that cause the game to just drop to desktop are listed in the error.log. I guess the error is severe enough that it can't create a crash.txt.

I always get the latest time in my error log.

Is'nt it the same thing?

Gil seems to be saying they're different. All I have is error.log and that's where my crash data is stored. Dunno about any crash.txt.

I played Gil last night.
(Kicked his Ass eh Gil) http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

But i asked him about this as we were setting up.

He says it's definately Crash.txt and not the error log.
