Game freezing in irregular intervalls - Page 2

surak · 03-11-2008, 11:33 PM

I've been running some tests, it looks like there's a problem in the way regnum enables multisampling.

Try disabling it from control center, or force it to disabled using driver settings. (i think it can be done from there)

Can someone confirm this issue is still happening with the last update?

Heglin · 03-13-2008, 12:54 PM

Don't know if its the same one for me but i had no freezes before the last update and now my game freezes for 15-30 seconds sometimes. The game just stops responding, everything else works just fine.

I experience freezing too, not that othen than before the update bit it still happens. My computer makes a "pieeeeeeep" noise then. The sound is like pressing a key for a too long time, actually it happens while running, so I press a key all the time.

But I am not skilled in computer stuff so I have no clue whether is is just my maschine or the game. But as I said, it happens much less than before update.

Edit: I just saw it is linux board here, I run windows, not linux...so don't mind then

freezes here too. 30 secs nothing.

Ubuntu 7.10-32bit

Well the same here. It started with the last update. The game simply freezes, system is OK (just need to kill the game using ssh from another machine). And it is not lag, this never happened before the last patch.

Which nvidia driver is everyone who experiences freezing using? Because I'm using 100.14.19 and never experienced any freezing, before or after.

I have been having the same problem, using ati x850 pro proprietary drivers. I thought that i might reformat, since ive been meaning to for some time anyways, now i cannot even launch the game, but im going to have to start a new thread for that.

Anyways, it seemed to kill X, my mp3s kept playing, mouse worked fine in the game, but keyboard would not respond, though i could turn caps LED on and off. I would have to ctrl-alt-backspace to kill x, use the process manager to kill the game, and relog in; during that time i would die. It happened far more frequently in pvp than it did just leveling; nothing seemed to help, turned off post processing, kicked down the graphics to where it was almost intolerable to play, and turned off all unneeded processes. Still, it would lock, i waited about a minute once to see if i could get it to wake up, but it never happened.

When i relogged into X, the game was still running, as in not stopped, and not zombie. Hope this helps, too bad i trashed that install or i could have gotten some logs.

Ubuntu X64 7.10
8 GB quad channel RAM
ATI X850 pro vid card
AMD 4200 Dual core
5 MB/384 Connection on a gigbit ethernet card.

Thats the exact same driver I am using.
However, the freezing problem (and crashes, see thread http://www.regnumonline.com.ar/forum...ad.php?t=20839 for more info) started roughly 6 days ago.

I have made NO (thats right, no) changes to my OS in over a month. it appears that this problem may have resulted from an update automatically downloaded by the client. I have tried turning off all enhanced graphic capabilities, but to no avail. the game either freezes (state in "ps ax" is RLl with increasing cpu time) or a crash (again, see the aforementioned thread for details).

this is apparently NOT a client computer problem as this is appearing across multiple linux distro's and multiple hardware configurations (yes, I've been reading up on this to find a way to fix mine).

n7zzt can you show me the output of the following command:

cat /proc/driver/nvidia/agp/status
