Hello,

 

Has anyone had any UCE game freezes this week?

 

I am running off an I3 / Win 7 Machine with ample hard drive space and 4GB of memory.

 

I play UCE almost daily, but after the last Windows Update UCE freezes the moment I launch a game.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers

I haven't seen any freezes while using HCE, and my Windows updates are current.

 

What version of the game GE are you running?

Hi, thanks for the quick reply.

 

I have isolated the freeze to the Western Pacific Battle Set.

 

Now what happens is when I open a scenario I hear the first "alert" and the game freezes but the alert continues. The only way to stop it is to kill the process.

 

The other battle sets seem fine.

 

Cheers

You probably have a dialog box that you can't see (beyond edge of monitor). Close the game, run http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?/files/file/228-hce-clear-game-options-registry-settings/ and then try again please.

Thanks TonyE.

 

My stupid! I should have checked that as I had just added a second monitor but it wasn't turned on at the time. Too many late hours of work and not enough play.

 

Just noticed what I think is an interesting association: You live in Minneapolis, which where I purchased my first copy of Harpoon (on disk), I have downloaded scenarios from CV32 who lives in St Johns Newfoundland, which is where my father was born, and here I am in Sydney Australia.

 

Just love the community.

 

Thanks again.

 

Cheers

... and I worked in Sydney for ten years, but now live down the road near Yass, it's a broad community.
