Leningrad Crash

Yesterday I was playing EF on Leningrad map as 3 soviet vs wehr/PE comps, it seemed fine but i keep crashing on that map, i thought it was something i built that caused it, but it seems every 2-3 minutes in the map i crash all of a sudden. i havent checked the other maps but is this a problem in the game? its starting to bug me alot >_<.

i used to crash on that map too. now i dont play on n00b maps.

i only play that map for fun, and also, i started playing EF again recently. i lost everything after my comp broke down on me and my disks were nowhere to be seen. now im playing on a new account (forgot that password >_<) and havent played for 1 1/2 years. yes, even though its really a noob map (even i know what to do) at least there should be something to fix it, or remove it if its such an easy map  :P

*Update* I played leningrad again, and this time i didn't crash in like 2-3 minutes, it seems that if i kill off a marder 3 the game seems to crash, don't know if its the problem on the map or something, but that what i saw before i crashed was a marder 3 exploding then a crash. ???

What graphics settings do you use with EF?

If you use Ultra, lower them to high and if you have scarring enabled then disable it.

my grapics are on low-medium, and the scarring is disabled, but it always seems to crash on random idk the source of the problem, cause i played another game today and this time, it crashed all of a sudden, last thing i saw was a 3rd su-76 being called and a computer's tank hall being destroyed.  ???

What are your pc specs? You can try to increase your PC's virtual memory.

I have Hp Pavillion computer, my processor is an Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual  @ 2.40GHz my RAM is at 4.00 GB having 3.87 usable with a 64-bit operating system, with directx 9, and finally nvidia GeForce 7100. kinda bought this computer to work CoH, but it has been getting rusty for the past few years, hope this information helps. =l  o and forgot my pc virtual memory is at 3965 mb.

Try to increase your virtual memory, that will help you to prevent random crashes, also make sure to close relicdownloader from the system tray once you start EF.

I played again, i removed relic downloader from the system tray and i increased virtual memory to the recommended option 5947 mb and I still crashed :(. I don't know what happening and I can't find the explamation to the problem. I'm starting to realize this problem is just on leningrad. I played The Scheldt to replace the game on leningrad. It seems I played it through the entire game with no crashes, I don't know if this is my problem, I think it might me the problem with the map only.

*Update* I played a game on Seelow, last time I played that map, i hated it because it had the most crashes on me, this time, I have nothing at all, I'm starting to think the problem is on the map of leningrad. Another thing that may help is most of the time I crashed on leningrad is mostly at explosions or something destroyed, maybe the explosions or deaths are the possible causes.  ???

Well, I'm sure we can take a look at that map ;D. But I'm not sure if we have checked it in the past.

*Update* WOOT! I was able to play a full game of Leningrad without a single crash. For me its a relief. However, I'm still going to find out what was the problem of the crash, which still makes me wonder. Thank you for the help and for making this awesome game!  ;D Maybe playing Seelow must've done something to the crash on Leningrad :-\. Just asking, when you call in a unit (like the IS-3) is the munitions supposed to lower? Because im having a strange problem like that. (Sorry for asking, haven't read the topic in the forum yet xP)

Yeah, soviet vehicles have munition upkeep.

Man, I have alot of catching up to do, and revising my strategy and tactics. Been a long time since I got this game back after my comp broke, losing all of my CoH data, including my old account -_-. Hopes this gets better >_<. (PS:still working on the reason of the crash. xD)

I wouldn't go devising any strategies that take into account the upkeep just yet. Wait until 1.6 to make new strats.
