------- Additional Comments From jrliggett@cox.net 2007-01-06 23:50 ------- Luke, Phil,
I've been playing for about a week straight with no crashes, I couldn't figure our why I was working, and you guys were still crashing. I think I might have just gotten lucky and stumbled upon something that you might want to try: avoid crouching as much as possible. As unlikely as this sounds, it avoids the crash for me. I can shoot people all day long standing up, no crashes at all. But if I shoot someone when crouching, it crashes. So it seems that it wasn't a regression so much an unconscious change in my playing style, as I sometimes avoid crouching to not give my enemies easy headshots.
I know this sounds strange, but I tested it 4 or 5 times on de_dust2 and de_port, which are some of the worst offenders for me. And if I think back, I think I might have been crouching in all the instances where it crashed.
