Savegame problems

[greebo]

Also getting the invalid handle crash for NHAT during the first mission. If that can be of any help, I am in the Cathedral and both ambient soundtracks (monastery and exterior) start playing when I load the savegame. It crashes a few instants later.

 

Can I have a look at that savegame, by any chance?

I'd say I'm pretty close to finishing the 2nd mission and have had no savegame problems. Sometimes it's just the luck of the draw, but I agree that mission "complexity" seems to increase the chance of saves being affected.

Unfortunately I thought I had it but must have overwritten near the end of the mission.

Anyway, I noticed that the overlapping of the ambient track happened everywhere else (to reproduce, just reload a quicksave not too far away from an ambient transition zone). So it's probably not linked to the invalid pvs handle savegame crash.

 

Sorry not to be of any use.

Yes, I'm well into the 3rd mission and no problems with gamesaves nor any other crashes.

you get it when windows crashes, it will display a bunch of hex addresses related to the hardware on your system, saying there's something wrong with the hardware or drivers for hardware.

 

Thanks. Experienced this in the past too. (Who Windows-user does have not?) Ok, I understand this is more serious. Hope, you can somehow fix this, aida.

Well, thanks, LEGION. I've played some more and haven't had any more BSODs*; and I am through mission 2 except...

 

 

 

I cannot figure out how to "drop my stash with 'Kutty'". My "Stash" has always been represented by nothing. I've gone back to my room and looked a bit, thinking that "it" is there?

 

 

*Lots of less severe crashing though. And just a hint of the old stutters. Saves are getting to around 85MB. I've also documented (screensaved) some interesting things related to what I once though might be the cause of the stutters - physics settling being unsettling... some definite instances of "perpetual motion" some astounding!, amazing!, sensational!, side-show, big-top, lollapalooza examples!

Just select your 'empty' stash and press 'drop'-button. A little crate will be spawned, so make sure there is enough space on the table.

 

BTW, my save for the first mission is about 72 MB. My Menu-save that I used 3 times is only 52 MB. But I never crashed on this mission, only on the second. Will try it again today, but first I wanna find all the loot in mission one, only 50 missing...
