As always... Flo will end up buying the drinks I guess -
Hey, that works! Set my scrapper's Invuln to PVP FX and viola! No annoying sound loop.

Quote:Sorry. When I said it was a memory related crash, that was just speculation on my part. I've done this test 3 times now, standing near a baddie, and each time I eventually crash. But you're right, it could be something else like my drivers, older vid card, or even a sneaky little hard drive sector gone bad.Originally Posted by MajorPain_EU
It doesn't seem to eat my memory either, was playing all night yesterday - no crashes.
The Invinc power's audio is definately askew though, and was really causing lag when I was on a team of 8 killin a GM yesterday, with all that was going on around me, my PC was having trouble activating all that extra audio too.
What I'd really like to know is, in Combat Attributes, if those defense numbers have always bounced around all jittery like that. It almost looks like the invinc is turning itself on and off really fast in an endless loop. -
My 50 Scrapper has this issue and I know why. Open up Powers/Combat Attributes/Defense and make sure your sound is on. Then approach a baddie that cons grey and just stand next to it. I did this with a CoT Demon 5 levels under me.
The numbers in the defense window will go up and down, giving and then taking away the defense bonus. Each time this happens, it activates another instance of the sound. The sound is NOT looping.
And if you stand there long enough, each instance of the sound eats up more memory. until you run out of memory and the game has a hard crash.
DO NOT run a TF/SF with Invinc on or you WILL DC. Even if there are pauses between groups of baddies, the memory has been "eaten". It took me 12 minutes standing in front of the Demon before the game hard crashed.
I just ran Lady Grey's TF and half-way thru, the lag had built up somethin' fierce. I turned off the Invinc and the lag cleared up.
Then 2 mins out of the TF, while hanging in air (cuz i was getting a soda refill) the game hard crashed.
You're Welcome =)
