Game crashing on mission load
« on: December 21, 2014, 09:02:37 PM »
So I am trying to join an operation and my game crashes when loading in. I have no idea what to do.

I have restarted steam, my pc, teamspeak, disabled and reenabled all mods.

Same problem as well, I deleted all of my game content and am reinstalling arma now.  Hopefully that will fix the problem, even though my game cache checked out.

Game crash as in arma stops responding? or mission doesn't load. Check the dump file and scroll to the bottom to see the error.

Guys I will see if I can help. But I need some information first.

I need your arma .RPT file from a crash.

Also I need your dxdiag.

Heres how to get them:

Both of those will be text files. Either put them in your Dropbox and give me a link or post them in pastebin with a link. Don't worry they have no personal info in them.

You are having a problem with your memory. The crash is because the game is trying to write something to memory that is already full. You seem to have plenty of memory, I think this is due to either how your game is set up or some of your mods are conflicting with the mission for memory management.

In addition to your mini dump that I asked for can you give me your launch params and your list as it appears that launch mods. If you use a command line just post the whole line.. if you launch with a launcher give me the options that you launch with along with the mods.

We need to figure out the order and how your game is launching.

All this is assuming that your not crashing any other time, only when you join the official servers. If different let me know.

Last week I was crashing every time I tried to join a server. I put -malloc=system in my launch parameters and I haven't crashed since.

Here is the mini dump file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sk6xmqpu153oy04/arma3_2014-12-21_19-52-58.mdmp?dl=0

Launch Params:
-nosplash -maxmem=4096 -nologs

I can't remember why I set the maxmem, but I did it in Beta stage of the game to fix some performance issues I was having.

Also, my mods are in correct order as I have already checked this and have expeirence with mods and other things of that nature within ArmA.

I tried this, and initially it worked for a short while. However recently I have had to re-start steam every time a launch the game, or I will crash. It also is creating malloc files inside my ArmA directory, which I am not sure is doing much good (I am on Windows 8 ) .

So was there ever a fix discovered for the crashing?

I regularly continue to crash, because it seems to be some conflictions of mods with AGM and RHS; Red Hammer has made it clear that they are not concerned with compatibility as they continue to work on their mods.

In order to resolve it, a quick fix that I do is to restart steam and ensure you have malloc=system in your launch parameters. I have to do this everytime I crash on load-in.
