Title: Malloc Errors YAY
Post by: hypercast52 on February 05, 2015, 04:10:17 pm

This happens when I try to start a mission. This only seems to happen when I load WiH2. WiH1 -seems- to work fine.

Code: [Select]

A "Malloc Failed!" error sounds like you're running out of memory. Try deleting/moving these files:

Code: [Select]

F:\games\Freespace 2\blueplanet2\adv-bp2.vp
F:\games\Freespace 2\blueplanet\adv-bp.vp
F:\games\Freespace 2\mediavps_2014\MV_Advanced.vp
The "Advanced" VPs contain massive textures that take up a lot of memory, and you may not even be able to notice the quality difference at your resolution of 1366x768.
