[Briggerz]

only had it installed for a while and i keep disconnecting from the server, im getting an overflow message.

ive been on a few servers now(wp and jolt) and happened on all of them.

anyone had this? or even might know the cause?

thanks

ok i think ive fixed it.

apparently this is a problem with voodoo cards, ive got a v3.

on the dodmod forums there are a few things to try

first you can try adding a command line to your dod shortcut.

Right click your DOD shortcut. Select properties.

Add -heapsize 64000 to the end of your "Target" string- the one with hl.exe -game dod etc. in it.

Now start DoD from this shortcut.

someone else suggested setting the value (i.e 64000) to xxx000, with xxx being around 2/3's of your system ram.

i.e. i have 192mb of ram so i would have -heapsize128000

however this didnt work for me.

the next thing i tried was to install the "HL ATI overflow patch"
from here http://bunkers.dayofdefeatmod.com/spawn/ati_fix_hl.exe

and lo and behold this i think has done the trick.

hope this helps someone.


p.s. checkout the dodmod forums for any other ideas
