Our crashes have not changed since the last update, they are still 4-10 per day - memory errors, can happen at anytime at all, but mostly on a round change mid map. Sometimes I can predict a crash, the round change prior to a crash will be very slow and/or jerky feeling, the next round change will generally be the crash. But as I stated before the crashes can occur mid round with out a warning [like mentioned above]. I don't see bots as being the root cause, there is something that resets or reloads on round/map changes that is creating an exception in memory that cannot be handled, perhaps a dll? I hope VALVe can solve this soon, it's not very good for business, we have not spent lightly on hardware or pipelines for this game, it is a large investment.
Good luck to VALVe in solving this rotten issue! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Shane Robinett Sent: Monday, 3 October 2005 11:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [hlds] Bots causing memory read errors Crashes have always occurred.

Turning Beetle off has no effect on that. Last log entries were always the weapon-stats of a bot. The Linux editions seams to run without crashing. I thought this is a known bug, in Beetle's forum I read that others have the same problem. > We have been getting these crashes for ages.
