I know I will probably wont get any decent help about this cause this happens
to almost everyone and usually getting no respand or getting it from some noobs
such as myself lol. so here I go and if a miricle happens then maybe you
could\want\be able to help me

any way while playing Earth Special Forces after a few minutes of playing it exits to the desktop.
I helped a guy who didnt want to upgrade to 1.1 from
1.09 or something...(lol) and had same problem!

now my spec ( - the boring part that tells you that there is no reason for this
to happen and you realize that you cant\wont help me ) :

I have reinstalled ESF and HL to try and fix this - nothing got fixed
I have some tweaks from Mr. Satan's thread or was it Gr00vy? I always forget

Pentium 4 , 1,400 MHZ

256 RAM

G-Force 2 MX (its not the driver , so dont claim it is!
its working perfectly till crashing in about 60 FPS and in good quality!!!)=>
=> ALSO am having NVIDIA updated

OS = Windows XP

YES I HAVE AN ANTIVIRUS WHICH WORKS PERFECTLY

100 gigas in hard drives , about 10 gigs free!

HL 1.1.1.0 , ESF 1.1 BETA

[edit]
while Im playing I have this stuffs:
DirectX , 800X600
as I've said this has nothing to do with graphics cause it works perfectly
fine when it comes to quality and FPS!
but it crashes every few minutes after initiating a game
[/edit]

..................

I think thats about it all!
If there will be anything new that you might want me to add
then I'll edit this later!

any comments? any solutions?

[BTW!!!]
since this thing happens a lot then I think ESF should edit it's files
so a report of exactly what happend will be created
something like STATUS.TXT file in HL\ESF that always updates itself
and if ESF crashes the info of what happend is in that file
TRY THAT IDEA IN THE FUTURE!
[/BTW!!!]

hope to get respands...

You have to goto your video setting's and set your video mode to Open GL > Default. I had the same exact problem's when I first started playing. :p

READ THIS FIRST!
nop guess that its not only DBs throwing spamming that crashes the server
its also teleporting spaming , or at least I think it is
it crashed again while I was spamming teleporting to avoid bots 3 (theyr so fast lol)
so... I think that this should go to coding for repairation in beta1.2...
lol , maybe I will be in the creditz... what an honor.... lol
I think that the bandwidth (or something like that) is too low to include
actions spamming and so it should be extended to be able to include actions spamming....

I knowbs **** in coding but this is the most logic thing I could think of

if I am wrong and there actually IS a simple solution to this please reply with it
as quickly as possible

I tried that...
Open GL doesnt work for me
I mean its selectable but I cant press OK...
I dont have its's's stuffingsongs...
and I can almost assure you that this is not the problem's cause!!

any way sorry for being so angry and pesimical...

I've isolated the problem!
in CTDB in map MT_SIDE or something like that
when I am spamming the ACTION KEY to throw the DBs
the game crashes out...

since the ESF team doesnt want to issue CTDB problems I guess I'll just have to be careful

oh and before the moders closes this thread I'd like to have
as a respond a link to an old thead that tells everything about CTDB issues
like certain errors on certain maps and which map has Dragonballz when option is selected...
-at least I think that threr was a thread for this...


thats all
I wish you could work a lil on CTDB too
guess I'll have to wait till beta 2 for that... lol
