DarkBlizz

any other way to do this? this is one of the reasons i've stopped playing starcraft 2... it was supposed to be my past time when downloading but it keeps crashing and forcing me to restart... i tried the framecapglue=30 and the other one but it still kept crashing..

im using apollo ati radeon 4670 ddr4 512mb with a very large (copper heatsink) at the same time the cpu is in an open environment inside the house and near a rotating fan..

please HELP ME

edit:

if you are wondering why would my videocard overheat...


1st of all it already overheated for being overclocked, but the thing is.. IT ISN'T overclocked anymore... so i don't know why and SC2 is the only game that has that freakin problem

this was after the latest patch this month (patch 3) and something went wrong.. on every single fire of my terran units, or uplifting (anything related to fire effect) burning units or reaper's booster and scvs.. it's nothing also at the same time some blood and goo effects were missing on zerg but it's hardly noticeable, protoss build effect also change (it doesn't have digital building block it's like really WARPING the building in

i have some screenies but it's only for terran

here they are:


check the Reaper and the Siege Tanks that are shooting, the Fire Effect and the Blast Effect aren't there


these are taken last wednesday, before the patch today
see the fires on the SCV booster..


look at the hellion's fire, the burning drones and the shooting thors, they lack the fire effect.. anyone else experiencing this?

well i was playing 5.5 two times now.. and here's what i found out..

-if you went on playing 4x4 FFA one of the AIs will stand out and eliminate the Two (you'll be one of them if you survive his rush attacks)
-two of the FUTURE losing teams (the likely duplicated faction) doesn't much EXPAND or Make an army... so the AI that does not have a duplicate will probably win over them easier..
-the only outstanding AI sends out scouts and waves of attacks.. dunno why
-i think 5.5 made the color of my base GREEN and made them ALL RED

anyways this is what i found out.. i hope the future releases of the AIs gets better and balanced


thanks darkblizz! more power!! 

First of all.. im new here and im glad to be part of DarkBlizz

and now..

-Problem-

after the launch of lazytown's sandbox i've been able to play the game smoothly even without AIs, in my testing i sort of played with the game (since there is no goal) and made them /dance  but then suddenly the screen went dark green with lines on them

it was immediate.. after that i waited for the release of the AI (the very first ones, tnx to you guys ) so i went on and tested it, sadly i wasn't prepared but i lost.. then so on until it happened again.. but this time.. the game itself will just hang.. then if you try to move the mouse a lot, it will then follow.. then the Dark green scanlines appeared.. the BG music is still playing but if you waited for a while the keyboard will stop responding and the BG Music will loop... the last resort i had was restarting the pc

the solution given to me at the Warez-bb.org was to add 2 Lines at Documents\Starcraft II Beta\~spam~ (that was written, wth is spam anyway??) so i guess that those lines belong to "variables.txt" then i added them (in the F area) after adding it, i tested it today and the game lasted for an hour and a half before it happened again dunno why this is happening but this is my Rig:

~AMD Athlon 2 x64 +4000 2.10ghz (runs smoothly with some fps slow down in some spots of the map)
~Apollo ATI Radeon 4670 DDR4 512mb (updated it's driver from last month 2-14-10)
~2GB Kingston RAM

that's about it.. the recommended settings are almost all of them are HIGH, post processing medium and reflections are off.. i didn't touch them even if i want to.. but it might result to some graphics problem in the future..

anyone know how to solve this?
