1.1.0.8 .... HELP!

Rockman · Posted: Wed Sep 19, 2001 2:12 pm Post subject:

Well, I was off work today and got the new version installed. But when I tried playing, I get kicked after a minute or two, every time! About half the time the console gives no explanation, but often it says "Rock Man overflowed"!?

I realize this is a new ball of wax for everyone, but is anyone else experiencing this? Anyone have a clue about it? Looks like I won't be playing until I figure it out.

Keep trying. It took me several tries. System is probably just real busy right now with all the downloads.

In the beginning of the download from sierra it said that some of the ISP's may not recognize this upgrade for 24 hours for some reason that I don't remember exactly.

There is already a bug discovered in the new patch.. This is what I got from Valve..

OMFG! You would think that valve would have taken into account all popular graphics cards when they made this patch, I am not sure of the figures but I think ATI Radeon is second only to nvidia Gforce as far as gaming boards go. I hope they can fix this quickly.

Thanks, Rob. Looks like that fixed it. I got into a game on Direct 3D and played for a good while.

It's really no prob cause the old Radeon runs D3D just fine. Really can't tell any difference from running Open GL.

I've been trying to download the new patch all damn day! I finally gave up and decided to wait till real late at night when not to many people are on. Its 3:00am now and i started downloading it 15mins ago.
Bottom line..........
just try downloading it before you go to sleep or school or whatever. try when the servers arn't so packed!!!! =)

Dammnit! Just my luck, everytime I get a better newer video card, they always engineer their updates to other cards! F them! Always something with this ATI card I have. I imagine the next one I get will suddenly become unpopular and I 'll have to deal with all of the bugs that go along with it... *cursing to himself and then cursing the entire world of technology!* BAH!
