CTD during large campaign battles!!!! Possibly sound mod related?

[pditty8811]

I have been having ctd's during large battles because of sound. A memory leak of some sort. I am running darthmod and hundreds of other mods.

The game works just fine if I disable all my sound, put it all on mute. In fact I have been playing on mute for the past couple months and no problem whatever. I just want the crack of the muskets back.

But when I enable the sound on any setting whatever I will get ctd's during large battles.

I have latest patches and what not.

Has anyone configured a fix for the yet?

AMD phenom II x4 955 Oc'd at 3.71ghz
4gb DDR3 1600mhz
Sapphire HD 4850 1gb oc'd 730mhz core 1050mhz memory

Thank you all-

Are you running the atmospheric battle sound mod? THat caused CTDs for me and a lot of other people. Too many sounds that are too long will cause that.

Hi Digs and all......

The Campaign map it self plays loads of samples.

I use a headset now, stops the nagging sounds of the Mrs........
(so i can go to charlie world )

My system

Just checking my hardware (On-board sound card) the other day. so i put this in my user.empire_script audio_memory_size_in_megabytes 4096; sound_channels 160; sound_variations 0; sound_file_caching true;

Who's up for this

Maybe some one cunning enough could go into the original pack and rip stuff out. Some One Who loves to do Sound Mods. Some one with spare time and the Guts to do this. Spoiler Alert, click show to read:  Oh well 2 out of 4 ain't bad

Thanks everyone. I fixed it. I had ctd's with Atmospheric sound mod v1.2a so I reverted back to 1.0 listed on the thread w\o the add-on. And I also had ctd's with Sgt. Milen's sound mod. Once I got rid of those everything worked like a charm. Possibly due to mod conflicts with other mods I have. I have hundreds.

Now I can hear the screaming dead and the crack of the muskets.

I hope this helps others out there. Thanks again.
