Crash/Freeze on levels 5 and greater

(1/7) > >>

Snow_Cat:
I find myself unable to run levels 5 to 11 (have not yet tested higher levels), and the custom levels for more than a couple seconds before the game will freeze and task manager shows that it's using as many cycles from my CPU as it can handle, though the memory used does not change.

I have extracted levels.zip and am currently trying to determine what it is about the later levels that is causing this.

A 'fresh' install from Steam, and the patch yield the same result.

Only my chipset driver has an update availble; I have yet to install it.

Is this system simply too obsolete to run this game?

Also, what achievements I have managed to earn are not being recorded.

Are you running version 2.05?

It's a long story, but 2.07 is now available.  Clicky if you need it.  :>

Alex:
Steam should be at 2.07 now.

Had a couple of reports of problems with levels feezing - not sure what they could be yet. Can you please post your system specs? Also is there anything you can think of that was similar between the crashes?

FWIW, direct2drive still offers me 2.06. I certainly have the 2.07 patch, but you might want to know.

Alex:
Oh, crap. Yeah I think I forgot to update the other DDs to the new version. Thanks!
