Do you remember whether you were playing in a 3-way/RvR game when that happened? well lad, i thought i heard tassin ...

Looks like the problem with the flying Reapers has already been fixed for the next update from other reports, but thanks for the information on how to reproduce it. If this problem is preventing you from playing single player you can always use the "allmissionsaregoodtogo" cheat to skip th...

The escape button will not work if you start a single player game after losing the connection from a multiplayer server. This bug was not caused by patch 1.5, but the next beta patch will fix it. The D3D8 application error is a problem with the DirectX 8 renderer and not the game, though I've never ...

Re: Things for the next update

-Mecc teammates can destroy the gyro when you are piloting it. It's very annoying and it causes damage to you for the explosion. Not a bug and it's always been that way. Increase ammo of the Mecc machinegun: the ammo is too low... It takes well over a minute of constant firing to run out of 600 amm...

Thanks. A few of the crashes in your log have already been reported (and fixed), but one of them was new. The next release of the beta patch -- which will probably be out before the end of next week -- will resolve those problems.

Hey Skippy, The 1.5 beta patch includes the DirectX 8 renderer that shipped with the GeForce 3 version of Giants, which could be the cause of your troubles with the flashing terrain. Patch 1.5 allows you to toggle between the DirectX 8 and the old DirectX 7 renderer in game through the graphics opti...

i just uninstalled the game and deleted the remains from the C:\Program Files\, than installed it again, and than installed the pach (1.5 beta) and it takes me to the desktop again after the first loading...

You don't need to run it for that long -- if anything's going to show up, it should take less than a second. I suspect that your router or firewall might be interfering with the connection somehow. When the game connects to the master server it tries to establish a TCP connection on port 27900, so y...

The GWD dedicated server is online 24/7 and has not been down since the release of the patch. You should always see at least that server in the list -- if you don't, something is wrong. When you go to join multiplayer game, does it say it's connected to or disconnected from the global server at the ...
