Default Fritz ET trouble - 03-04-2006

I've been struggling with how best to address this, because I've been having a very hard time pinning down the exact circumstances of the crash. The first instance that seemed repeatable involved an axis teammate being stabbed while laying down wounded right at the entrance to the forward bunker on wurzburg radar. (To be specific, the one where the constructable MG42 nest is located - which I was manning when it happened, both times.)

Other instances of this crash seem to come into play largely on Siwa Oasis when the action gets especially thick, exactly where and when the crash occurs, appears almost random to me - I've taken off the timelimit and had a match last well over a half an hour without incident, and had others where it crashed in a mere five or six minutes flat.

The error code generated by windows for all five to six of these occassions is below:

Faulting application et.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module cgame_mp_x86.dll, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x0004e2fb.

I had trouble getting this because, everytime I went to copy/paste it - it locked up my machine inexplicably. Eventually I smacked myself in the forehead and remembered, thats why event viewer was invented.

This is of course still on my ET v2.60 copy, running windows XP (sp2 - ugh), on an AMD Athlon 1.2ghz 266 FSB processor, with 1.5gb of PC133 SDRAM. If there's any other technical information or system reports say from windows event viewer or the temporary files generated for microsoft error reporting that may be of use, please let me know and I'll get that up here as soon as I can.

On a sidenote - Fritzbot ET is supposed to be serverside, but when I have pureserver turned off (or on) and client DL's disabled, it refuses to allow another client from my network to connect unless they have fritzbot/mp_bin.pk3 and fritz0.pk3. With pureserver on or off and client DL's enabled - it transfers those two files before it allows the client to successfully join the session. I was wondering if this is some kind of goof up in my settings or an actual issue.



The way is made clear when viewed from above.
