cant play as or with the Soviets
« on: August 17, 2010, 08:31:51 AM »
Game always crashes during loading, at about 70% loaded, on any map if there is a Soviet faction in the game, doesn't matter if it's human or an AI. I was CoH is patched to the most recent version. Also won't make a .dmp file because it says the Temp folder is full even though i emptied the folder just before the crash.
1st Game I played went fine after that its starting to do this. looked in the "Post here if you crash" topic didnt find much to help me or that worked. from the one game I did ger to play its a great mod!

Do you have enough free space on your hard disk?

Could you try this:

I contacted THQ with my dxdiag and warnings.log files and a representative replied asking me to make my Windows swap file no larger than 2048MB in size. I typically make my swap file a static 4092MB so that it has no need to grow or shrink, but to test, I set my swap file to "System Managed Size". I was then able to play a full round of Tales of Valor with my friends online with no crashes. The round lasted over an hour, but it is the only test I have done so far.

If you use ultra settings you could change them to high.
