Patch 3.0.5a

posted on March 19th, 2009, 1:41 am

Great Job Guys!!! The latest patch seems to work great. I have noticed ships being stuck in fed repair yards as well, but it does not seem to crash. The only problem that seems to be left is the explosion hang. I run a nvidia 7950 GS (512). Could the problem there be with the new updates that nvidia has put out in the last few months??

The Team stated earlier that the problem probably lies in the way the engine renders the explosion vs unexploded ships (it renders the explosion parts using a different mechanism)... so hopefully they'll figure out a workaround

yea, seems so. i've received only one crash report for 3.0.5a since it's release. that's a quite good rate compared to the amount of crash reports i received for previous versions

Hate to kill that one crash only record but I had a crash on the map editor on 3.0.5a that I thought I might as well report.

Here it is:

thanks for the report, i'll check that. a crash in the map editor isn't as severe as during the game do you remember what you did before the crash occoured? sorry for my late reply here...
