pressing key for map crashes the game

Postby OnkelDolan » Mon Jun 11, 2012 11:49 pm

When I press the key for map (any key that is assigned to map, not just m), I get sent to the desktop and I get a nice little window that says client.exe has stopped working and the only option is to end the program. This happens every single time. I also use spadille if that is any help.

How can I fix this?

If you are using windowed mode, don't go any lower than 512x512 size, that is the size of the map when you bring it up. Anything lower than this will usually crash the game. I use 800x600 in windowed. Tell me if this fixes your problem.

It does, but 640 x 480 is the only resolution that fits perfectly on the screen, 800 x 600 makes all the text bleed and makes my eyes hurt. It'd be nice if this was fixed

Just to confirm the bug is present in fullscreen as well, not just windowed.

<@mikuli> the bad part in this plan is that it involves an already busy tea-drinking scone chomper with a monocle

Seriously just do 800x600.
IF you want the game to still crash then keep it at that resolution but im fine with it and you should be.

Yes, I suppose I must, but then I can't play AoS on my old tube tv ;(

My PC is very old (Athlon XP2600+), even at 640x480 it's not exactly silky smooth. Considering how much difference going down from 800x600 or 1024x768 makes, I'd say the bottleneck is raster bandwidth (my video card is an equally ancient FX5200 Ultra).

That isn't really revelant, I have no fps probs at 800 x 600, the colors just bleed on text, I also just want to play on old tube tv

All I was saying is that I don't really have the option of upping the resolution.
