Game crashes at random
« on: 26-12-2016, 17:12:28 »
Hello,

I have some issues with the mod:
My game crashed the second time today. The first time I was playing singleplayer on Gold Beach and the second time online (don't remember the map name).
The strangest thing wasn't that it crashed but that my whole PC froze, I wasn't able to restart it or to open the task manager or to even close the game with Alt+F4. I had to plug the PC out of the socket.
It didn't crash yesterday though.
Could it be because I installed the community updater? (It also behaves a little weird)
I installed the community Map Pack and Matt_Baker's texture Pack. I installed also the Eastern Front missions. It didn't install any maps. They are in the levels folder but not in the game. Just like all the maps from the community map pack, which are displayed in game though but starting them results in a CTD without an error message whatsoever.

If it helps, here are my PC specs:
MSI GTX 970,
Intel Core i5-6600,
16 GB RAM,
and Windows 10 Home 64 Bit
I have the retail version of the game (Battlefield 2 Complete Collection) with the latest patch (Patch 1.50)

I hope you can help me with my problems.

I thank for any answers in advance

EDIT:
I tried to play it with the maps and texture pack shut off, still freezes the PC

Check this link, and try to install the community mappack manually, it solved my problems: http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php?topic=20028.msg349364#msg349364

Still doesn't work. Same issue
I think I'm gonna try deinstalling the mod and reinstalling it

After a complete reinstallation of the mod, the game still crashes.
I am not even using the Community Map Pack or anything other than the mod.
It sometimes results in the game freezing (so ingame graphics my weapon and so on) and sometimes (most of the time) it results in just a completely grey or black screen and I can't so anything.

You probably checked already, but just to make sure: are your drivers and OS up to date?

I haven't, but they are fairly up-to date.
I'm going to install the new ones though right now and check if the game runs now

I now have updated my drivers to the december ones (Mine were from 28th of October this year) and it seems to be working right now. I'm not sure if this functionality is going to continue. I'll play a multiplayer match today and see if it works

OK, good to hear. Let's hope it works OK. Could you check "show framerate" in Video/Options in the Launcher? It might help to solve the problem if we know the fps.
