exceeded maximum number of script strings
Almost every time I close the game I get this message:
---------------------------
Fatal Error
---------------------------
exceeded maximum number of script strings (see console log for more info)
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Are there any known fixes for it, and where is this supposed "console log" saved in my computer?

I get that error as well, however it does not stop my game from playing really well.

And I never found that console log either.

Yeah, I can play the game, no problem. But I made another thread about how I can't get my NAT type to open, it's always on moderate, and I'm thinking maybe this has something to do with it. So if I could I'd like to fix it.

Also, I have Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 redist 14.0.24215 (x86 and x64) but the game for some reason provides a dated version in the steamapps\common\Call of Duty - Infinite Warfare\_CommonRedist\vcredist\2015 directory (14.0.24210) and whenever I start IW steam always attempts to install the dated version in that folder.

My NAT type is always on Open, and I see the exceeded max script strings error after exiting game, so the 2 issues are not related.

What is the manufacturer and model of your internet router or gateway that is managing the IP addresses on your network, or are both your gateway and router as two separate units both doing the NAT?

My router manages all the IPs. Manufacturer TP-LINK, model TD-W8970, and gateway 192.168.1.1. I have all the necessary steam ports forwarded and I added some additional ones from an Activision thread but still no change. I've set up a static IP, too.

Holy smokes!!!

I just dropped out of this game after about 4 matches, and

there's no error message about exceeded max number of script strings!

Could it be the new NVidia driver 376.66 I installed today?
Or the new Windows 10 Insider Build 15007 that came in today?

Good for you, buddy. I didn't get it today either, but then again I don't get it every time so maybe I just got lucky.

try opening the ports on your Windows Firewall or disable it temporarily and then see if the Nat status changes.

I posted that I resolved it here:

It was indeed the firewall, but it's the one my antivirus has.

nat type can be changed by doing this
Press and hold the “Windows” key and then press “X” and open the “Command Prompt”

Now type; “ipconfig” and hit enter

Look for the iPV4 line and copy the ip address written in that line

Press and hold the “Windows” key and then press “X” and open the “File Explorer” and go to “Network” and select your network, whatever it is.

Right click and select the properties, go to setting and hit the add button.

Now fill the information;

Name whatever you like.
Below paste the IP address that you copy from the command Prompt.
Below put the port given above for pc which is “TCP: 3074”
Again put the same port below and hit OK.
Again hit the ADD button and fill the same information, but this time select the “UDP: 3074” and hit OK.

Now you are good to go.

But if you are still facing the problem, you may need to add other ports s well. Just check for it.
