I would love to know what changed in the past month to make this an issue after six years of problem free play.While JC2 multiplayer is technically a mod, it's less of a modification and more of a face-lift of the entire game. This still remains a workarouind to a root cause that continues to be unknown. If any of this sounds familiar to those experiencing crashes, then turning off decals under advanced graphics options should work. However, firing from a helicopter at low elevation and close range to an NPC did trigger a crash because he was standing in front of a building that would normally have decals drawn for the missed shots. Similarly, shots from vehicles generally would not trigger a crash because you are normally firing from a distance. Shots from a distance would not trigger a crash. However, the shots had to be close range to a game assett where a decal would normally drawn to represent a bullet hole. I realized that the one second freeze was always triggered by a shot taken by me. The crash was always preceded by a one second freeze, followed by a game resumption for a few seconds and then the crash and error dialog box. With enough play time a pattern began to emerge. Once the crashes started, I did not perceive a pattern. It was this crash behavior that pointed me to decals as a possible cause.įor those still experiencing crashes, the following may help confirm if it is a decal issue. I still find it strange that the crash behaviour experienced by the OP and me was identical, though he says he tried disabling decals and it did not work for him. I never expeienced a red line, so they seem to be different issues. Personally it was Bokeh that caused issues, not a single crash (or wierd red lines on the screen) since I disabled it.

Originally posted by Banzai:I see lots of people claiming they tried disabling decals, but not so many who have done both. If Avalanche is unwilling to make minor changes to insure compatibility, then games like JC2 won't just be relegated to "past their prime cult followings" anymore, but simply and completely be dead. Part of me thinks there has to be a solution, but if MS updates Windows to new versions or even just updates to current versions, and NVIDIA/RADEON are also constantly changing, then it becomes dependant on the developers of these games to tweak them to make them compatible. Making me wonder if, unlike games like Saints Row titles, or any of the GTA PC games (even the old ones like III, VC, and SA) as technology advances, games like JC2 may simply become unplayable, never to be supported again. Have you tried running the game on another PC, maybe one a little older? What bothers me about this is that JC2 is one of my all time favorite games, but Avalanche does not have a history of good support for this game. I hear you and I am not sure what to say.

Click the button to the right of DRIVER VERSION.Ĥ.

Step 3: This is to get your graphics card to render the gameģ. Go to your steam library, right-click on Just Cause 2, select ‘Properties’ -> click on the ‘Local files’ tab and select ‘Verify the integrity of game cache’ (Edit: ***by the way, this worked for me even though I only have one video card installed!***) The problem occurs when your system has two graphics cards installed and JC2 gets confused. Right click on the steam icon of JC2 and go to properties>Set Launch SettingsĪnd it should work.

Oh and OBVIOUSLY it goes without saying that you should make sure your video drivers are all up to date, right? ) These steps helped me and now the game runs fine.

Okay I had problems running this game on Windows 8 and higher, and I want to say my older Win 7 maching, but that I am not certain of.
