Crashing to desktop every time I join a server?
« on: May 06, 2011, 09:09:27 pm »

Just started yesterday but I closed C-RPG and restarted and it worked fine.  Now it crashes the second I join the server (I see the terrain load and get the "select screen" window than crash).

Any experiences with this? I imagine it is something video related? Any help is appreciated.

Changed settings from very high --> high --> medium and finally low and nothing.  Changed from DirectX 9 --> 7 and it works but god it looks not so good :(

Try deleting profiles.dat from Warband folder in AppData. You can find it by typing %appdata% in the adress bar, also make sure displaying hidden files is enabled.

Make a backup first in case it's not the problem, so you don't lose your character faces for nothing.

Leikner: that seems to have it working but it doesn't load any of the new "chinese" faces.

Punisher: I can't seem to find profiles.dat

Starting the game in windowed mode (module pop-up menu options) helped me get rid if this problem.
You think you're pretty smart with your dago mustache and your greasy hair.

I had the same problem lately. Tried to join eu_1, but everytime it crashed to desktop after the terrain was loaded and the frame for the team selection menu was shown. But when i tried eu_4, there was no problem and after that i could join eu_1 without problem too.

So: did you try to join the same server everytime? If yes, try another one.

Ya man at first it worked, and it works now (logged in once and admittedly I have been playing like 6 hours straight now lol  :oops: ) but could you narrow it down to graphics, anything Amoebe?

Thanks again for all the help!

No, unfortunately i have no idea why this happened. Didn't change any graphics setting/drivers or anything non graphics related, it was just broke and then worked again. Like magic ...
