Title: Computer crashes when joining HRP
Post by: Camoâ?¢ on March 06, 2011, 08:39:39 PM

Yeah, title says it all, every single time I go and try and join HRP my entire computer freezes and I have to manually restart it. It's really starting to annoy me, any help?

First off, try lowering your GMod graphics settings. Do things such as changing resolution, set shadows to low, etc. Also, try running in windowed mode.

Resolution = Native (1400x900)
Windowed Mode = Yes with -noborder in advanced launch options

Going to see if I can do something in video settings tomorrow

Try updating your graphics drivers because i had a problem where i had 1 fps in menu and a driver update fixed it.

Just throwing it out there, I joined HRP with minecraft opened and I was stuck at 9fps, and when I restarted pc (After a sound problem) It went back to normal.

Can you post your computer specs? It sounds like a graphics issue but to be sure I'd like to know your full specs, Processor, RAM, GPU etc.

Ok, so why the hell would be out of date when it auto updates itself and I have crossfire

How the hell is it a graphic issue if I can run every other game quite fine with 150fps and a max fps of 300 with no graphic related issues

Try turning your settings down. The map has a few things which can cause crashes on some cards, regardless of how good they are.

Since new map came out maybe that will stop the crashing, cause I can join the biggest map and not crash so I thought it was just the map, I'll try tomorrow after college if it still makes me crash than im done and see if I can get another card to make it crossfire same version of course
