I have the same problem, JO and other Q3 Games work fine.

Happened to me too. I had my Radeon 9800 overclocked so I took that down and switched anti-aliasing/anisotropic filtering to application only...runs fine now. Prolly a driver bug.

 

Jod ;-)

The splash screen I am referring to is the very opening one after starting the program. I can't even get to the menu - it just has that initial Star Wars : Jedi Academy screen with the copyright info and that's it. Maybe I just need to let it keep loading, but there was no HD activity while that was going either.

I used to always get the GPF crash problem and warm windows reboot (argghh...) in SP and MP, I'm pretty sure it has something to do with a memory leak somewhere as it happens whenever theres lots of polys, scenery or distance, though I'm not sure if its a problem in the game or crap Nvidia drivers (45.23).

 

My System (NOT OVERCLOCKED or OVERHEATING!):

WinXP

Athlon 2500+ (Barton)

1 Gb RAM

Leadtek A310 (GeForceFX5600) 256MB AGP 8X

ASUS A7N8X mb

 

I found that if I turn off trilinear filtering and only use bilinear, it CRASHES MUCH LESS often. None of the other settings, glows, EAX, ect.. seem make any difference at all. It definitely happens a lot more often if I have glows and trilinear on at the same time (And the associate huge drop in frame rates :p ).

 

btw- JO 1.04 ran perfectly with everying maxed.

 

Hope this helps RAVEN fix the problem..

Its a pain in the ass cause i can't get on multiplayer ether and before any one says anything my computer is not over heating and i have attempted to run the game on safe mode and i still get the same problem. :confused:

Posted

Yea I get random crashes that give me a windows error. It happens with both JO and JA.

 

All my other games run fine. Please fix it, as much as I love JO I could not play it after I got my ATI 9800 pro. I didi not have the problem with JO on my old GeForce TI4600.

 

It is some kind of memory leak.

What you explained in your thred is exactly what happens to me. EXACTLY! I have a P4 1.5ghz, 630mb ram, 80gb harddrive, and an ATI Radion 9600pro. Only freezes when a level loads and it's random sometimes the lvl will load sometimes it'll load it just fine, a soundfile repeats and i have to restart the computer to make it stop. I've updated every peice of hardware i own and still freezes. Did anyone find an answer on how to fix this problem?:confused:

I tried out MP last night (offline - solo bot matches) - and it ran okay for a while...then it tried to load the next map, and just sat there...and did nothing. I had to do a hard reboot eventually. :|

Posted

SP works fine, but when I start MP, the window freeses and im not able to do anything

System:

Pentium 4 2.53ghz

ATI RADEON 9000 Pro 128mb

768mb Ram

etc

Newest Catalyst Drivers...

With omega-drivers theres the same error!

Same problem here too.

 

Fixed it by getting a friend's JA MP config file (it doesn't make the .cfg until after you're in MP) and popping it in the right directory.

 

Works fine now!

Hmmm...you just got a Radeon 9800 card, didn't you? I've got a Raeon 9700 Pro. It seems to me that a lot of people with ATI cards are having more problems running the game...

 

Which file did you replace, One? Also...if it works...is there a chance of you posting it somewhere for others to d/l and try?

Well, that's the only problem I've encountered so far. Otherwise the game runs fine ;)

 

My config file is here:

 

http://darkforces.jediknight.net/rich/jampconfig.cfg

 

Stick the file in your GameData/Base folder.

 

Bear in mind all my system settings are very high (gotta love my new PC) - so check them out before you boot up a game.

 

Hope this fix works for you guys too!

Sorry for the repeat posting, but I'm in a bit of a spot.

 

As soon as I run the game (Either in single OR multiplayer), the game crashes. The loading screen comes up, the screen goes black, and crashes to desktop with an error message.

I restarted and tried again and it gave me the option to install the game, and no option to play it at all. I went to the folder and clicked both the multiplayer and single player individual executables, and got the same sort of crash.

I reinstalled, and it didn't help.

 

I am running Windows XP Professional with all updates (Including DirectX), AMD Athlon 2600+, 512MB PC2700 DDRAM, Radeon 9700 Pro, and an ASUS K7N8X board. This is the only game that has ever given me such a problem.

Runs fine on both my other PCs. One of them is the same, cept it has a Soltek SL75 board, and the other is a crappy Dell with a Radeon 7500 and a P4 1.5 in it.
