Patch Project Debugger

posted on January 20th, 2008, 1:32 am

Hi, everyone. First let me say give all my thanks to you guys for doing this project. You've bled new life into my passion for Star Trek Armada. However, I was wondering if there is a way to turn off the built in debugger in the A2 Patch Project? I noticed that it still says there is a memory problem(different from the 50 MB or more message). It asks me if I want to make a report. I can do that. Or if I click no, the game loads just fine. Being no stranger to A2 mods in my game, I assumed that I have some problem that I haven't run across/can't find. So I created a new installation patched with 1.1 and then with 1.25. With no mods installed, I get the same debug error about a possible ODF error. If I click yes I can make a report, if I click no the game loads fine. The computer I am using A2 on has no direct access to the internet. Can I possibly collect the file(s) off of my hard drive and send them to you manually? Just for thought, here are my system specs:

BFG 680i SLI MB
Intel 870 3.8gHz w/2MB cache
8.0GB G.skill DDR2
2x 7900GS nVidia Geforce in SLI
X-FI X-treme Gamer Pro Series
2x 18GB scsi
2x 36GB scsi
29160n Ultra 160 scsi adapter
Lite-on DVD burner
Win XP x64 SP2

No other games (except for the Half-life games which is another matter altogether) exhibit any problems on this system When I first built this system about a month ago, I did exhaustive testing and benchmarking and am completely satisfied with it. I would just like to be able to turn off the debugger if possible. Thanks so much again. You guys Rock!.

yes, this is a bug within armada 2 and xp x64. usually you cannot run armada at all, thats why this dialogbox there. i need win xp x64 in order to work out a 100% working fix, but i haven't

welcome to the forums btw

Hi, thanks for the welcome. Thanks for the fast reply. Though the news is unfortunate. I've gotten in the habit of just hitting 'n' right after I click the A2 shortcut. I know you guys have lots on your table, but hopefully it's something you can eventually fix. Thanks again so much and have a great day.

Flint.

the problem why the message is still there as someone told me that is not only if ram is (or too much ) but also when a mod developer makes a mistake in an odf file. i wasn't able to reproduce that, so i may just disable this check or atleast disable it under x64

if you like you can contact me via IM and i assemble a version for your without the check
