Not sure, but i recall the schrinker does cause problems by definition, which i think is the reason you either have it active or not. At least i think there was something up with that "weapen" .


But a logfile would help alright, not for me, but for others with more knowledge here :)


But its a way cool mod, i think one of the best in Unreal.


You also may want to try the Crystal Castle mod, or Unreal4Ever :)

ok...heres some possiblilty's...

1. The mods ur using don't like 225 Final...which most likely isn't it...cause i've never heard of this before.

2. U need to re-install Unreal

or

3. Your a totall n00b (lol) just kdding :P

Ur best bet is to re-install Unreal...try it tell me if it worked.

Erm... if it is really Unreal / UT crashing here, it should never go as far as crashing so badly the computer reboots. This may be unrelated to the game itself and I would have the computer taken to someone knowledgable and have him take a close look on every piece of hardware in it. Mobos with bulged capacitators come to mind, overclocking (=BAAAAD) etc etc....

If you can play OTHER 3D CPU demanding games all right all the time for a greater amount of time then of course something is extremely odd about your Unreal/UT install...

Yeah a crash that makes your computer reboot goes alot further than just a game crashing.

Also, and could have sworn i already posted that, but looking back seems i didnt  ::)

I was on the wrong foot, telling the shrinker had issues, i was incorrect, its the beamer having issues, my bad lol. Though i did not have time too look up what that issue was. But it could simply be that a beamer is being abused in the server instead of giving technical problems.


In any case my remark about the shrinker was wrong.
