Problems with Joint Operations (Crashes)

[Res1s7]

Hi. Great mod ! Have had some problems with Joint Operations. Some are stable but even those get pink textures in some places. The Das Boot one kept crashing until I tried "Verify game cache" again. To my surprise a single file had to be reacquired even though I'd only verified a few days ago. What would be messing with a single file ? I've never had this happening with any other steam game ! Then Das Boot did not crash after that but I started getting pink textures, missing objects and holes in the map.

I have a high spec machine with 8 gigs of RAM.

Would really love Joint Ops to be fixed as I'm a fan of these campaign like scenarios. But if I can't find a solution I'll just have to stick to skirmish as it get's way too frustrating. Cheers.

I've noticed that every time I check the mod's files I get at least 1 missing or corrupt file.

I have screenshots of the map and have no pink textures.

The power of your machine has nothing to do with it, it's from the game's old 10 year old engine.

And lastly, the dev can't do anything on the script but the map itself since he's not a SCAR scripter sadly.

I suggest you lower your graphic settings and try again, corrupt graphics often happen because of graphic settings, such as black areas for example.

screenshots of pink textures, please

OK, thanks. I'll get some shots. I'll consider the 10 year old engine thing.

Hi. Did not manage to get any screen shots but what I did do is download the original Joint Ops from here: http://www.nexusmods.com/companyofheroes/mods/1010/? ... The same Das Boot scenario runs without any crashes or issues so it does not seem to be any problem with the original Joint Ops release. It's funny, apart from an initial problem with cache files that needed verifying I've not had any problems with EAW in Skirmish mode with AI. But with Joint Ops there's some kind of interaction going on between the mod and the original mission. As I said playing the vanilla original Das Boot shows it has not problems.
