Crashing when loading Act 3 areas
|
Ok, I reinstalled the game and I still got the same problem.. When I go from Marketplace to Battlefront in Act 3, loading lasts forever and game crashes with that unable to MapViewofFile error..
I never had any problems with game until Act 3.. I have done everything to run game on lowest settings and added the -gc 2, don't know what else can I do? I also tried ctrl click on area to start a new instance, but that didn't work also.. Is there some kind of bug or memory leakage in maps around Marketplace in Act 3? I can't continue playing, everything worked fine until I got to Act 3.. I aslo tried going to some other maps in Act 1 and 2 and they all work flawlessly :( edit: here's a pic of error if it means anything..

" Have you tried running a resource monitor or task manager and looked at your memory usage when attempting to go in there? Also, what version of Windows are you on, and is it 32-bit or 64-bit? |

" No, I don't exactly know how to do that, and I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.. (also I'm running it on Bootcamp on a Macbook Pro, but I never had problems with any game before, it's not running windows in parallel, it's booting with windows) IGN: PsychoNoxy

eww.. 32-bit eh? ok...
you can right-click the taskbar and start the Task Manager which should have a tab on it to monitor resources (one of which is memory). a more complicated but accurate and tuneable thing is to run Resource Monitor (resmon.msc) and use that to track the system memory usage. I don't have windows right now, so I couldn't tell you exactly what options to choose in there, but that resource monitor can track a lot of cool stuff. |

Ok so I monitored memory usage, and it does rise when in marketplace, but this time everything worked, I went to battlefront and Lunaris temple, but then when I used waypoint to go back to town, game crashed with same error.. Memory seemed even lower then some areas so I guess that's not the problem.. Are then some game files corrupt? But I just reinstalled the game.. Maybe it's that problem where I have to use a VPN to download game from different server? Or maybe it's something completely different.. Anyone know what can it be??

Dude, I got the same problem with you, and I also tried the "solutions" like add -gc2, but the game still keep crashing when I enter marketplace...BTW I'm running Win 7 32bit too :S
I guess the best way to solve our problem is upgrade our system to 64bit, because 32bit system only support maximum 3GB memory, there have 1GB wasted. I will install 64bit Windows later, now I need 32bit system to run some specific software... Last edited by dowithoutdoing#5794 on Mar 16, 2013, 4:31:19 PM

I also have the same problems, it also happens at the marketplace area, but not the first time. I believe this bug happens after we install the new patch, coz before that i can access through the sewers and catacombs area. Screens loading was fine then.
After putting "-gc2" like you guys said, it did work, but after awhile it bings me out for Not enough memory. I switch to another character and it runs fine until that marketplace where i bing out again while switching areas. Hope you can make a minor update to address this issue, P.S. Just to note that when i first access the marketplace after the update, some of the "tiles" or terrain (idk) vanished during a fight. I've no idea how this happens but i can't react quick enogh and got killed in the end. |

" Yes, it could be your ISP sending you cached files which would be why the file corruption never goes away after re-installing. Here is the VPN guide if this does fix it for you make sure you let us know and tell us your ISP so ppl on the same ISP will know and GGG may contact them. |

" I would but I can't install new windows cause my dvd drive broke and I can't fix it at the moment :( " I don't think it is cause you see more people complaining about the exact same issue after the update, I think they messed something up with the new patch.. Hope they are going to fix it in next update. Also I'm currently living in Berlin and I don't know German, so talking to my ISP is out of the question atm. I'm going back home in a week or so, so I'm not gonna go through all that stuff.. Hopefully ISP in my home country won't have the same problem.. If that is the problem anyway.. ps I also had a bug where I come back to a map and map is reset, but all mobs are laying around dead and some new spawn at weird places.. IGN: PsychoNoxy

" It might not but its worth a try, cause if they really did mess something up in the patch i would think the problem would be more wide spread rather than just a handful of people out of the 50k+ that play. They are working on fixes for the cached data which hopefully will be in next weeks patch. That being said you could be right, but finding the problem through process of elimination can take a while and it doesn't help when other people fix their problem and don't reply on their thread so we have no idea if the fix worked or if they just gave up. Hopefully we can sort this out soon. |
