0.8 Memory Error Help please

Munkee · 08-30-2008, 05:43 PM

Help! I uninstalled all previous versions of Project Reality and I deleted PR in the battlefield mod folder. I installed the new .8 core and levels. I can join servers just fine but I always have a memory problem. When I first join a server its fine and I get around 90 fps. But when I try to change directions or look left and right I get a lot of stuttering to the point that its unplayable. If Im walking straight and looking in one direction I don't lag at all. But once I try turning around the game grinds to a halt and theres a huge fps drop to 40. Once I stop moving it jumps back up to 90ish again. If I press escape the game crashes and says Memory Error.

The maps I played on were al basrah and ramael (only ones I could get on cause all the other servers are full).Ping was around 70. I tried 64 player servers and some half full servers to see if there would be a difference but I still lagged. A week ago I could play al basrah just fine before the update. All my settings are set on high.

I have 2 8800GTS in SLI and 8 gigs of ram, vista 64 ultimate, if you need anymore info to help please ask.

I think 1 of those 3 is a likely suspect!

I was going to tell you to increase your virtual memory, however... you said you have 8gb of RAM. Vista 64 is listed as supporting up to 128gb of ram, so I don't know the problem. Very perplexing and my post here has no point now.

Have you tried emptying your BF2 shader cache ?

Try taking out each stick of ram and use one at a time. You might have a bad stick.

I have almost the exact same problem; however, I only have 2 gigs of RAM. I attribute the problem (for me) to having page filing off. I still CTD once in a while after turning PF back on, but it seems to work better. With as much RAM as you have page filing probably means nothing, but if it's off I recommend turning it back on.

I fixed the problem by dropping textures to medium setting. Unfortunately theres a problem with vista and PR that prevents it from running with high texture

That would have to be the strangest vista related problem I've heard about lol. Good thing it was a simple fix though.
