Memory Leak?

posted on October 18th, 2006, 2:47 pm

Me and Croesus just finished a 2 hour Fleet Ops game, within 2 mins of exiting the game, both of our computers blue screened and re-booted.

The Error displayed on the blue screen indicates a Memory Error.

This also happend to me and Croesus yesterday when was played a 1 hour multiplayer game. Exact same error.

I think you might have some sort of memory leak or something similar guys - if it had just happend on 1 computer we could put it down to bad luck, an odd hardware configuration, etc, but it happend to both me and Croesus.

hmm interesting, i have had 2 hour games with 4 of 11 before and we haven't had the same issues? was it agaisnt the AI? we often have group games that last an hour and none of us suffer the problem? what sort of set up do you, what hardware and software and so on?

why not try a game agaisnt me or some one else, see if it sitll happens?

hmm. i never heard or experienced something similar yet. large parts of the loader code have been rewritten already in the current loader dev build. so i assume if that problem really originates from fleet operations then its gone with the final

you know, issues like that are hard to track down when they are not reproducable... :/

After your computer has crashed next time, please attach your FODataTempLogLoader.txt file to the forums. Maybe we can begin to find a solution through the log.

Ok - Me and Croesus should be playing another game later today so when it happens ill be sure to post that log for you.

And yes i am aware of how hard it is to fix something if you cant re-reroduce it, 3½ years as an IT Field Engineer taught me that one hehehe
