Since the Little Red Barons PC has been up and running next to mine I've noticed requesting artillery causing crashes on PC's and it's not always the person who is requesting it that crashes.

I know this was an issue in 2.9 but it never seemed to get resolved.

Using artillery more than occasionally and with the PC's running next to each other I'm positive this is the cause of the crashes which can affect sometimes up to half the people in the server.

One of the Little Barons or myself can request arty and carry on playing whilst the other is frozen at the exact time but the screen frozen just before the request comes up on radio.

Everyone else freezes up at the same time.

I'll also put a thread in The Firearms Forums to see if anyone there knows anything about it.

Yeah i was wondering if it was the explosion sounds that was causing the errors. cause it seems when an explosion sound + someone speaking at the same time ccaused me to crash to desktop last night.

Good observation RedBaron... I would notify the FA team so they can find a fix. I have always suspected the mortars

It's not the mortars or explosions it's the requesting artillery that does it.

Don't worry that it may be due to adding 2nd pc on your hub. Tiger playing last night when Gator requested artillery and her pc totally froze. Arty bug. Clean those mortor guns before you try them.

 

I noticed they had both their guns built as close as possible to each other. I've noticed when single gun built in hard to find allowable build spot, crashes when arty requested. I'm wondering if because gun area is close to non-buildable area, bordering such area or other gun's area, if this could be causing bug.

 

I suggest we try building motor not at all close to visible or invisible non-buildable area to see if it still crashes and if so post here so we know.

I had that happen to me, last night. The map was Sandblast and when Gator our fearless leader requested arty I crashed. My screen was frozen showing the requesting arty on my screen and with Gator in it requesting at his motar gun while I was standing at my mortar gun, then poof crashed. I had to restart pc by Ctrl+Alt+Delete Then was back in again

 

But later when it was iwo, I had arty and someone else did too, I can't remember who, anyways, I requested, no problem nothing happened, no one crashed until the other person who had arty called his marker, then it crashed half of the players but not me or the other guy who requested.

Yes, it looks as if teo mortars have to be activated for the crash to take place. It is a bug for sure, and an ugly one.

you mean like calllin for it twice?

Also has anyone noticed claymores?

 

Whenever there are a lot around. People crash more when they go off.

I've crashed more than once on rubble, when the airstrikes are going off.

 

By the way, Gator, I saw someone fire a M79, then die before the grenade hit, and the kills counted. :o

Ive done this quite a few times now. Can the grenade rounds be detonated in mid air by other explosions? Because if so, that would explain a lot

 

Or they didnt detonate (like it does in close range) so nothing happens.

 

Or maybe they are disappearing like my ssg shots where it shoots and when the guy moves you can see the bullet hole right behind his head.
