I got it too, theory is that its the particle system disagreeing with Radeon drivers. You get lots of left over weapon effects dotted about the place.

I now run /effects self and haven't had a crash since.

Effects self is the answer - you need to start it pretty quickly though. I hate the solution.

Oh and its not Win7 getting the crash as such, its the DAOC client. If it was windows getting the error it would also shut down your bot account and would probably need a system re-boot.

DAoC has had this problem forever, its not just a WIN7 issue, they did fix the engine issue in WAR (which uses the catacombes engine still lol!) when they ported it to the MAC, but sadly they cant be arsed to put the fix on DAoC. Go figure.

Can I laugh and gloat that my 7 (64) works fine?

Apart from the crappy output level on vent and the need to run my mouse drivers as an admin ofc...

Think so - it's a BFG and it's been replaced by them 3 times. Bought the original about 7 years ago, but wtf it is now I haven't a clue.

But what your basically saying is that it's an ATi driver issue and sod all to do with M$? ATi drivers did go a bit skew whiff about 3 years ago iirc.

I'm guessing the nVidia deals better with vertex buffer leaks. It's a code bug in the crappy net immerse engine mythic use (or maybe mythic's usage of the engine).

Miffixs usage, as they CAN fix it but cant be arsed.

Got same problem on my main-PC with Ati Radeon 5850 card. Don't have the same problem on a similar PC with nVidia 9800 card.

I think its ATI-related, as most people who have the issue have an ATI-card. It's too bad, simply because (currently) ATI-cards have the best performance/price ratio (if you like playing other games then DAOC)

I'm so waiting for a Mac version of DAoC now :<

Wasn't there some command to free video memory?

They wont port DAoC to the MAC, cant say I want to see twats on their ipads playing it tbh. They could fix it, apparently the leak was a doddle to fix on the mac port, so they put it into the WAR PC version and presto, no more leaks, but miffic is too dumb dumb to do it to daoc.

Even a Mac version wouldn't be playable on the iPad ;) The engine they used for War needs an Intel CPU.

Ipad is just for portable porn, easy to take into public toilets for a monkey spanking session so you wont get caught by your mum when she pops in with a cup of tea. Anyone trying to use it to play games on should be taken out and shot.

Now stop feeding Steve Jobs wallet and buy a PC! Bill gates needs your money more!!

Personally I would say you got something else wrong there, I think the most Ive played is about 9 hours without logging either account on my PC, maybe a driver issue or a corrupt file somewhere, or mismatched memory?
