Bug Reporting / operation totalize bug
« on: 29-09-2009, 13:09:05 »
this might be a detail, but on the loading screen of totalize you see a watermill turning and the water of the river it's located on is running in the opposite direction. in other words, the watermill is turning upstream which is really weird to watch.

FH2 Help / Support / solution for memory.dll crashes
« on: 28-09-2009, 22:09:09 »
When playing in Vista I've had several crashes since 1.5

I found this fix on another forum, posted by a member called "R.J.Travis". It might be rather complicated but it worked for me (just played for a few hours straight without crashing). The problem is caused by a restriction which causes bf2 to try and use more memory on your pc than it's allowed to. This happens when you have a machine which has more than 2GB of ram.

play the game in windowed mode by adding "+fullscreen 0" without the quotes in the shortcut to FH2. when windows crashes, and you see "memory.dll" in the crash error window, you might want to try this out to fix it.

Here's a link to the topic where the solution is explained - for windows vista 32bit and 64bit, and also windows7 it seems.

Edited for Windows 7 RC 32bit - 64bit & Windows Vista 32bit - 64bit

Here you go

(You'll need to be an Administrator)

Windows Vista 32bit - 64bit


First, you'll need to grab and install Visual Studio C++ Express from Microsoft.

It's free so don't worry. Downloads

(You'll need to be an Administrator)

Windows 7 RC 32bit - 64bit


Windows 7 RC user's follow the Vista 64-bit guide.

It's free so don't worry. Downloads

Once installed, you'll need to update it, also make sure u have latest game

patch installed.

Backup the bf2.exe file, just in case.

Windows Vista 32bit - 64bit

Now, click
Start ->Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition ->Visual Studio Tools ->Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt

Windows 7 RC 32bit - 64bit


Start->All Programs->Microsoft Visual Studio 2010->Visual Studio Tools->Visual Studio 2010 Command Prompt

(Don't left click on VS 2005 command prompt though, right click on it and then click **"Run as Administrator"**)



**If you don't run it as Administrator the fix will not work**

Then, once the black Command Prompt box is open, navigate to your battlefield 2 directory.

If you don't know how to navigate in DOS, follow this:default

In Windows Vista 32bit & Windows 7 RC 32bit cd c:\Program Files\ ENTER
**or**
In Windows Vista 64 & Windows 7 RC 64bit cd c:\Program Files (x86)\ ENTER

then usually it's "cd EA GAMES" ENTER



then "cd Battlefield 2" ENTER



NOW WRITE THIS

editbin.exe /LARGEADDRESSAWARE BF2.exe hit ENTER



It should then come up with a "Microsoft copyright or trademark" type thingy, this means it was successful.



Type "exit" and hit ENTER, and it's fixed! for vista 64-bit

64 bit Vista users can now restart and play, **32 bit Vista users follow the next step**

In a command prompt and once again **Run your command prompt **"As Administrator"**



navigate to c:\Windows\system32\

Type this command:
BCDEDIT /set increaseuserva 2900 ENTER



Now exit out of that box, restart and you're done!

**THIS IS ONLY FOR "memory .dll error" AND ONLY THIS.

THIS WILL NOT HELP ANYTHING LESS AND PLEASE DON'T USE THIS FOR ANYTHING OTHER THEN THE POSTED ERROR**

This was done with Vista 32-bit in the photo's

I posted this before back around 0.6 but I did not have the Photo's to help and couldn't find it anywhere so I thought I'd retype it with Photo's help.

***Updated***

If you are using a ATI card on your computer, You will need to uninstall C++ and all its files to upgrade your drivers C++ will sometimes stop the driver install program from responding the fix will still say after you delete C++.

One of the best features I found is the vegetation which stays even when you look in the distance. Yesterday I played on purple heart lane, on the far left side. Near the end of the map in front of me, some enemy infantry was hiding in the bushes. I saw nothing but i saw the muzzle flash, so to make an artillery spot I pulled out my binoculars, and upon using them I could see infantry crawling around on a solid green floor - the vegetation disappeard completely and i could clearly see the enemy soldiers.

I'm playing on all setting maximum and 100% visibility.

I'm not sure this is a bug or an engine limitation, but I thought it might be useful info if something could be done to fix this.

great work on the newest version though, love the normandy setting and the original maps.  8)
