UT General protection fault!!!

Recidivist · 22nd Jan 2000, 02:07 AM

KingCole....I had exactly the same problem as you.UT worked fine for a week then I had EXACTLY the same message everytime i pressed ESC.I have now solved the problem...it only crashes when you use he keyboard.The way I got around this was by starting windows in step-by-step confirmation mode and tried various combinations of yes/no to get it working fine (althogh with no hardware acceleration and no internet play [img]/~unreal/ubb/html/frown.gif[/img]>>> )
Try it 'cos nothing else worked.

My brother has an IBM 500 mhz pentium3 96 mb ram and a v3 pci card... and it works fine for him. but i have an HP pavilion 550mhz pentium3 128mb SDRAM memory,v3 agp and 19 gigs of hard drive space. Every time i load UT it plays the intro movie, i hit escape, then it shows the main screen for a split second then gives me the following error message.

General Protection Fault

History: UModel::LineCheck <- CheckWithLevel <- ULevel::MoveActor <- AActor:

hysFalling <- APawn:

erformPhysics <- AActor:: Tick <- TickAllActors <- Ulevel::Tick <- (NetMode=0) <- TickLevel <- UGameEngine::Tick <- UpdateWorld <- MainLoop

NOW WTF IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!!!! can someone PLEASE tell me how to FIX THIS...any help is HIGHLY APPRECIATED. thanks.

I get the same error msg but only when the action in-game gets really hefty for my system. Like, Im playin on the Asssult map with the boat...and everyone on the servers pinging 700+ and flaks and rockets are around..boom my UT goes into a similar (or if not, even the same) General Fault Protection Error. Someone know wtf is up with this?
I can't lose out during a game like that...but it doesnt matter to me, only happened twice to me, out of liike the many times i played UT.
Thanks.

dude thanks for the tip and youre right we have the EXACT same prob...except for that it never worked on my comp. we tried to load up a dm map by itself and it worked! but the downside was u were right about the keyboard...touch any key and UT closes and an error opens.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME OR GIVE ME ADVICE?? MAKE A PATCH MAYBE??

I was having the same problem and it appears to be using 3d hardware sound. Try disabling this and give it a whirl.
