Operation Arrowhead (+ CWR2 mod): odd freeze/crash on entering firefight

Recommended Posts

I've had the following weird issue today: while playing the Cold War Rearmed 2 mod in multiplayer on a dedicated server, my game froze and crashed a couple of times. It was in one particular coop mission only, and only after we'd entered into a firefight. The other mods I'm using are pretty standard: JSRS, CBA, sthud.

I know this is very little information to go on; I'm happy to provide more info, but I don't know what might be relevant in this situation. Since my friend's game didn't crash, I'm at a loss as to what it might be; it doesn't seem to have been CWR2 or the mission as such.

Here's the crash log, in case this helps:

If nobody else has any ideas then it's possible it is an addon conflict. If at all possible try to cause it to happen again. Then remove everything but the CWR2 addons. If it doesn't happen with only CWR2 try adding other things in one at a time until it crashes.

Thanks, will check that out.

Actually, I wonder whether it might be the following: on my server, I've got the latest versions of the Sander missions, whereas the computer I use to play the game had older versions of the missions in its mpmissions folder. Is it possible that this would cause a conflict?

I feel like the newer ones would get downloaded in that case so I doubt it. But if you want to try fixing that first feel free.

I've tested this some more, and even with the non-CWR2 mods deactivated it still crashes - and I've found that it does the same in Sander's mission "Hammer Beam", which is also one of the CWR2 ones. Again, same thing: as soon as the firefight starts, after a couple of shots are exchanged, I get a crash to desktop, complete with a message saying that OA has stopped working.

Is there any easyish way for me to tell what the common factors are between those two missions?
