Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
All of my downloaded cars works fine in the game but after finishing a race when i try to change cars. the game crashes with a Carma2_HW.exe has stopped working error? Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
You have too many custom cars, remove some. I'm not sure of the limit you can have before the game crashes, a search would tell you the answer but I can't be arsed to search for you.

edit- I'm pretty sure the limit varies, maybe it's around 50 - 60 but I'm honestly not sure.

I don't have 50 custom cars in the game... Around 25.

Everybodies game crashes. EVERYBODIES.
Once you start editing files it becomes unstable.
It is not an XP problem as far as I know.
And please try using search before starting new threads. PLEASE.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
Possibly that's ether is messed up Carma2 install or something is broken in your system.
Have you tried clean Carma2 install? Does it crash..? The problem may be ether tracks and/or cars or other misconfiguration there...
What your system you're having and what Glide wrapper your using if any and what settings if you're using one?
P.s. try to remove some cars to see if game works then...

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
This look like SCI tech support to you? Just reinstall the freakin game.
This place is more like the corner gas station where locals hang out. Maybe work on something if we feel like it.
If a stranger shows up needing something fixed, depends on what kinda mood we're in.
But this ain't no dealership. And it ain't tech support either.
Just start fresh. It used to work before you started doing stuff to it, didn't it?

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
... You know you're talking to the admin of the site right?
But he's right though. It don't work anymore, just re-install. Just like the lovely Window systems.
And also, if you don't get banned for that, you'll find out that the old crew is kinda like this. I guess it's because of all those noobs that came by and asked - no, demanded that the crew here did stuff the way the new guy wanted, making them (the carma townfolks)goes kinda edgy.
Also, it's not because they know how to setup cars or maps that the guys here are computers experts.
So yeah, there are some days where they are like that. Other ones they're the most polite peeps around. Hope you'll be able to stick around to find out.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
Thanks SV, I am calm now. I get pissed because some people only register to the forum to get tech support and then disappear. Never add to the community, just feed off it.
I'm at the point in my life where I really don't care who I piss off. If if KYjelly doesn't like it, too bad.
I wasn't half as nasty as I tend to be. I actually tried to explain the reality of this place.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
I can understand if you get mad at people who just register to get help. I would try to help out others but, I don't really know much about how C2 works.
Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
Ok, I don't knowanything about computers, so the specs mean nothing to me.
Clean install is still the best bet, making sure that works, then adding cars one at a time.
Check the game after adding each car, making it sure its not crashing.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
Dunno much about specs either, but with the ram size, hard drive space and his vid card, he should be able to play. I guess that when he removed the cars he removed something the game needed by mistake.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
I know quite a bit about computers, and while alot of the specs. he mentioned are irrelevant, his computer should run the game no problem.
The game has gotten corrupted. As mentioned before, re-install it.

Re: Carmageddon 2 Windows XP Problems
I fixed the game by downloading the V2 Superpatch. No more crashes!

Whew! That was close. We just got done replacing the big mirror over the bar, too...
