The game crashes after me and my friend press done after placing our mercs on the map. Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks in advance!

Was there any solution to this yet?

I have the exact same problem..joining, Merc hiring and getting to the placement screen works, but as soon as both are DONE, the host (in this case me) crashes to desktop EVERY time.

We both have the same build, which we allready checked and which is the latest available with MP 1.7.

Similar to my single player problem (which is now seemingly gone) i get a crappy crash report with no info:

-----------------------------------------------------------
File:
C:\Spiele\Jagged Alliance 2 Gold\ja2.exe
Release v1.13.4462 (Official Release): Build 11.05.30. Z
-----------------------------------------------------------


over and over again.

JA2 Gold with 1.13.4462, running on Win7, port open and so on..

I have no clue and want to coop play that damn game!

I'm in austria and he is in america, though honestly, i dismissed that idea, cause i have a very good internetconnection and am always hosting other games without any lag.
Besides: shouldn't it just disconnect instead of CTD?

Well, we did some testing a while back and it does in fact depend on geographical locations.

Well, we were able to play a few games. When we had a third party, we were able to connect better. Truthfully I don't understand it very well.

Now tested it on a LAN.
Closer than being 1 seat away won't happen, since I have no wish to have someone sitting on my lap.
Still does not work., so there is another reason for that crash after placing mercs.
Too bad, cause it would be a pretty good multiplayergame

Hi Guys,

i have the exact same problem. My friend and i are living in the same town so i think the geographical thing is not the problem. Did anyone find a solution yet? The crashing is not map specific by the way.

Im operating a Win7 x64 system with the newest version of 1.13 and all router ports are open i think.

i tried to change the drop off point, so the solution from above where someone said it worked on another map part, is not a solution that solves every problem.

I would be more helpful, but my crashlogs say nothing.

As written above: it always crashes when both players hit "done" after placing their mercs.

I'd say my setup is bad or i messed up somewhere, but in this thread alone there are 3 people reporting it and i saw other threads about that too.

I'm new to this JA2 Coop stuff so maybe the following has nothing to do with our problem. My Chat says "A Packet has been received for which i dont now what to do" when i start the server.

Is there any chance that the crashing has something to do with that?

Too bad i know crap about programming, so my thoughts on why this happens, are very limited.
Is there probably some kind of Framelimiter to keep people with low connection from joining, which in return may have a bug that under certain circumstances, crashes a host after going to the tactical map?

would be cool if someone fixes the bug, but since no one knows what causes it, there won't be much happening in that direction Sad

Wait until the next official update. I made several changes to the connection problem and hope it will fix the bug. Also grenade throwing crash is fixed.

I registered just to say my friend and I have the exact same problem Sad

This is build 4870 from Dec 28 2011. Basically for Deathmatch or Co-op, regardless of what options we tweak when hosting, the game will crash immediately after we both place our mercs.

We live in the same city and are using the same base version of JA 2 Gold.

So the prognosis is "wait for the next release"? Sad Has anyone tried from Subversion/SVN and had more luck?

I think i know why the Multiplayer Part is crashing after placing the Mercs . You cant use the "Einsteiger/Easy" Difficulty or the Game is crashing . You need to use one Difficulty Level after "Einsteiger/Easy" . For us the Game is running fine from now on Smile

The Screenshot is from the German Version but these Settings are running fine without any Problems Smile

Confirming alfman, as I changed the difficulty from Novice to Experienced and this crash problem went away. Much appreciated, good find!

Now if only I could figure out how to deploy by my friend so we don't have to run across the map into each others zones!

@Bosky: Thats fine that this workaround is now working Smile

@Deployment: You can set the starting edge (north, south, east, west and center) for each player on the strategy screen, BEFORE the server unlocks the laptop!
