Ever since I started using Taylors builds any other build I try causes a CTD after the load screen finishes loading.

FYI: I've been reading "Helpdesk calls from Hell" for the last 30 minutes.



Please answer all of the following questions.

What OS do you use?
What Processor?
How much RAM?
What video card?
What version of drivers for that card?
Are you using D3D or OGL?
What version of DirectX do you have?
What command lines are you using?
Are you using any VPs or files not included on the FS CD's?
If yes, what files or VP's?
What exact builds are you using?
Are you using the new pilot code?
Did you read the fecking warnings?

[Deepblue]

I doubt that it has anything to do with my comp specs but here it goes.

Windows XP Home
Athlon 800
256
Geforce 2
(I think) Win 2000 drivers
D3D
DX8

Babylon Project installed plus modded files.
Build mentioned above.
Yes.
No warnings appeared.

Move the pilot files you have in data/players/single and try again.

[Deepblue]

No good.

Assuming that you aren't using a pilot created/used with my build with another build, try OGL (if possible) so we can make sure it's not a rendering/bmpman problem.  You said no other builds work but does mine?  Try using a different campaign and see if the problem persists (the pilot code changes the campaign savefiles too).  You said that it crashes after the load screen but is that with every mission you try in the campaign room or just through the ready room?  Do any ships in the tech room cause a crash?

[Deepblue]

I mean the splash screen loading. It doesn't even get in game, and yes your build still works perfectly. I don't think it has to do with OGL or D3D because the builds all worked perfectly untill I intalled your 8/28/2004 build.

Paste your latest error log.

Mine fatals at 0000000 (or whatever many zero's are there).

Same as me  (the violation - happens when I try to run taylor's build - normal 3.6 one works just fine though)

Oh the splash screen, have you tried running it without movies?  My build has a fix for the D3D movie crash.  It doesn't crash in OGL though, no matter the build, so if OGL works then there is your problem.  This is all assuming that you installed the movies shortly after or just before you used my build.

If that doesn't fix it let me know.  Only have a few days before I get hammered by another %^$!#* hurricane.

Note to self: go ahead and make sure that D3D fix gets in CVS.

Hmmm, that could be it. I'm using TBP's uncomplete intro movie as an intro. Thanks for the help.

Sorry to hear that.
