Hot Fix: Fixed a crash after the 'waiting for players' screen or the start up sequence.


Also: We are continuing to investigate the HUD issues and hope to have a fix out ASAP.

Servers should be back up by 10:30 PDT.

Cheers,
The MechWarrior Online Team

Excellent!

[Ocilfa]

I personally have never had a crash, but I hope to hear less about it happening after the fix

[AztecD]

after last patch, I had a lot of hid issues and crash to desktop, hope this hotfix helps

Thanks for the update! I haven't had that crash yet, but I know those HUD problems are really driving people nuts.

Maybe having sporadic equipment failure could be a cool part of the game, but it can't just be random like this. I wouldn't mind hearing people scream "I've lost my HUD!" after taking several PPC/gauss shots to the cockpit, but hearing it right at the start of a match is...not so great.

First game after this patch... no HUD again...

its not a HUD fix man

[Kaeb Odellas]

Yeah this patch was only for the CTD issue.

[AlmightyAeng]

Thank you for keeping us informed, Garth.

[AztecD]

memory allocation failed. crash to desktop

[OneEyed Jack]

You mean we might actually have an occasional 8v8, now?

Yippee!

[Cygnus_XI]

That hotfix did absolutely nothing.

Just had one of those crashes it was supposed to fix. Also got a new 'memory allocation failed' crashbug.

Congratulations.

Looks like it's back to work for you guys.

That's great and all but as with all PGI bug-fixes, I wonder two things:

1 - Did the patch succeed at fixing the bug, because half the time they don't.
2 - What did the patch break, because every time you guys add code at least one new bug is born.

I admit, I too react to news of patches with fear and trepidation. I do not trust change. Ever since the patch that knocked 50 percent off my fps ....

P.S. Get off my lawn you darn kids *shakes cane*.

It's not fear and trepidation. I've been here 7 months now. I know how PGI "works".

Make sure you submit any crash dumps you have so that they can find further solutions. Just because they fixed A crash to desktop bug doesn't mean they got all of them.

Interesting... although it seems like damage isn't registering properly since the hotfix? Looks like there's a noticeable delay to the paper doll.

[chiXnhawk]

Did that fix the crash to mechlab?

[Marvyn Dodgers]

Thanks for the update Garth, off to try it out . . .

[ove bababoke]

I know that you fixed another stuff but... For this 2 days I got none HUD issues and just one disconnect in the middle of the battle. Great job! But today I`ve seen a "dancing" map! It just turned and turned around randomly all direction. Jesus, I thought I got epileptic strike!
