Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
This is what happens since I installed the game on Windows 7: After about 30 minutes of playing, the game just closes itself, no error, no freeze, it just exits.
OS: Windows 7 64bit
Armagetron 0.3 (latest build from AA beta)
I already tried the compatibility mode and I also ran Arma as an Admin.
Any ideas what could help? (And don't tell me to change the OS....)

Hmm, no idea, Win7 isn't installed anywhere near me yet. Do you know what the servers you play on see? Do they see your client really quit or does it just time out? Making a debug recording could help, maybe something is telling AA to quit and it obeys.

Wow you get 30mins
Graphics driver issue imo
I used windows update to get my drivers & that solved the problem I think; although I recently upgraded to drivers from the manufacturers site and they are ok.
But graphics would be the first thing I would check

Yes teen, that was me.
I'll make a recording and post it here, as far as I know, the server does not see anything strange, the client just quits.
As for the graphic driver, I'm on a laptop and ATIs drivers for Win 7 are still beta, but I'll try them as well.
EDIT: Recording is too big to upload it here, so http://rapidshare.de/files/48967652/Rec.zip.html

Small update, I have no problems with 0.2.8, played the ladle without any "quits".

Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
Yeah, when I switched to Windows 7 I had the same issue. I then uninstalled and switched to the 0.3.0 client and that seems to have fixed my issue. But it seems from your first post you already have the 0.3.x client.

Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
Now that's interesting, because I have the problem with 0.3 and now I use 0.2.8 and in your case it's vice versa.-=VcL.Rajinn wrote:Yeah, when I switched to Windows 7 I had the same issue.

I'm using 32bit as well, and you're using 64bit I believe. Windows 7 is pretty weird, wish I never switched to it actually.

Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
Well, besides Arma 0.3 not running for more than 30 minutes, I really like Windows 7 so far (especially compared to Vista).-=VcL.Rajinn wrote:I'm using 32bit as well, and you're using 64bit I believe. Windows 7 is pretty weird, wish I never switched to it actually.

Btw I tested the latest 0.3 released on my machine with windows 7 professional 64 bit, and everything worked fine. I did install nVidia's drivers for my GeForce 7300 GT

I notice that he and I also use ATI's graphics card. You are using nVidia.

Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
Yep, and as I already mentioned, the ATI laptop drivers for Win 7 64bit are still in the beta phase.
Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
I have the same problem in both 2.8 and 3 on win7/32bit. Got ATI too.
Re: Armagetron automatically quits after ~30mins
Looks like you found the culprit. There are some suggestions from another forum, those people are having a similar problem.
