Play game then crashes at diferent times
« on: January 17, 2009, 11:50:28 PM »
Hi I play my bridge commander and have good fun but at different times the for example when I am firing phasers or when multiple explosions the game will crash. but it does not always crash, I mean I could have multilple explosions and the game is fine other times it will crash any ideas?

could you give us more information?

Is there any particular events that cause it to crash regularly?
what kind of crash do you mean, is it a crash to desktop, a fatal error, or a Black Screen with BC cursor of Death?
what mods, if any do you have installed?
what are your system specs?

A random crash to desktop usually means that a projectile file is missing.

BC crashes when a projectile is fired and you don't have said projectile.

Whenever you get such a crash, you should test each ship individually on asteroids, and go by each torpedo and (if there are any) pulse weapon on it's own. So don't fire them all at once.
I still can't read peoples minds, nor can I read peoples computers, even worse, I can't combine the two to read what is going wrong with your BC install...

It doesn't really help.


What would help is if you could tell us if you, or an AI ship, were firing torpedoes or pulse weapons when the game crashed.

the latest incident is I went to launch a ship and the game just went to desktop, and I have launched this before eith no problem. or when there is a lot of fighting going on it will freeze then crash, it could be my computer just does not have enough memory or video card

Are you always setting QB up with the same ships?
