EF freezes while loading original CoH maps

Hi,
If I try to play with Sovjets on a regular CoH map (not one where the [EF] is in front of the name) there's an error sound in the background and the loading screen freezes in the last decile. It's not possible to see the error message (not even with task manager, the game refuses every try to end it and the freezed screen is irreversible). Has anyone here an idea how to fix that or is this an unknown/new error?
Thanks in advance!

Re: EF freezes while loading original CoH maps

It's worth a shot.
I never heard of anyone freezing on vanilla maps, I heard some crashing on new one (they are not as good optimized and vanilla maps)

Re: EF freezes while loading original CoH maps

You should allways have the lastest patch installed (Version 1.11.1 atm) . . . . . .

try it out and see if it helped ? theres no point playing the old version, nobody is playing it and there could be critical bugs that are not fixed, but who is fixed in the lastest patch...
its also hard for people to help you if your useing an old version.

Re: EF freezes while loading original CoH maps

finally it's working
thanks for the advice (actually I didn't know there was a patch out lol)
Post Merge: [time]1278245571[/time]

Now there's a new problem
If i try to play on big maps like route N13 the game freezes on if I reach the middle of the map with my cursor. The freeze consists of a move of the map forwards and than emmidiately backwards and forwards and backwards...
Has anyone an answer for this?
Again thanks in advance

Re: EF freezes while loading original CoH maps

Try lowering gfx settings, EF + big maps = very much resources.
