the last update was supposed to fix the problem.... used to happen to me now it doesnt, just assume the update actually worked on this issue. i used to get it when i loaded servers...it would load then after a few back out of the game....try clearing your cache file in your bhd folder.

getting punted


Some nights get punted, some not. Some nights get punted a lot, some a few. I try to keep temp files cleaned. After I defrag seems to not get punted at all, but don't want to defrag every day. Hope this helps someone.

I was going to play BHD today (haven't played in about 2 months). I update the game, enter the game, get on a Nova server and get punted after about 30 secs. Every server I tried does it. This is f'ing ridiculous.

New Update will punt you...


I haven't played in 2 months either and I am having the same problem. Funny thing is nothing I have seems to be showing the problem. I have tried differnt drivers and lowered my ping times and I still get kicked after 30 sec. THIS SUCKS!

My video card now is the GeForceFX 5900 Ultra with the 53.03 Driver. I have also tried the 2 previos drivers and they still don't work.

NVIDIA 5x.xx FORCEWARE Drivers SUCK


Just to let you know the issue with being punted with the new update is an issue with the new drivers from NVIDIA.

The way I figured this was by uninstalling,re-installing,changing the directory when re-installing, not updating the game. Re-installing DX9 and finally rolling back driver to the NVIDIA Driver v45.23. Once I did that I was able to play them game "the way it was meant to be played."

So if you have an NVIDIA video card and have this driver revert back if you want to play DFBHD. Also, this driver also affects the game BF1942 Desert Combat, in case someone plays that game too.

I may be totally off your topic, since I havent read the entire post properly. But I do know that if you have modified skin files in your BHD folder, you will get punted after 5 sec, if you try to join a server who dont allow skins.

I had this problem on commanche... I solved it by setting the team prefference to either, instead if Red or Blue... Might work for DF, as it's the same engine deep down inside....:cool:

I notice- when I started messing with skins and when I tryed to go into servers even if they allow the skins it still seems to mess up. you be playing for one map then the next you get cut off or the 5 second cut off too. skins are cool but I think theres alot of bugs in them- so I when I got rid of all my skins in my folder I never had a problem again. so it might just be a simple thing as a skin that kicks ya..

PUNT PROBLEM SORTED (I THINK)


i think i sorted out my punt problem the same time the update came out i upgraded to a 1 meg connection and i thought it was get the fault of the bhd update but i have two comps networked with just cards and on the other one which is not connected direct to the modem bhd works cause the connection is slower but when i connect it staight to the modem it punts me on that one as well so i think im nearly there ........oh and its at the graphics card i changed mine from a radion 7000 64mb to a gforce 4 256mb and it still didnt work!!!

same prob here


I too get punted out of all servers including my own clan, but I last for 40 seconds. All was great until this update (v1.5.0.5) I've un-installed, deleted all traces of it, on my hard drive, re-installed and reupdated, same problem still.
I run WinXP on a Pentium 4, 2.4ghz, 768 DDR ram, 64mb agp G Force, 40gig Hdd, I'm also on cable running at 600k, surely this enough to run a game? Anyone know a fix? missing all the action!!

This happened to me with Battlefield 1942 and after much research I found some patch out there it was on one of their forums. Never played BF 1942 after that because I found it fixed my BHD that had been sitting in a box. I have Nvidia and a VIA chipset which it not a good combo I hear.

VIA Chipset


Here is what I found at the guru3d.com forum about my prior post...

Important for VIA users (With problems after game loads)
This was originally posted by Hagar.

He explains about a patch that solves game crashing problems with VIA chipsets so if you r interested read along and download the patch if you need it.

With regards to Arden1's problem, It sounds like the hell I've just been through. I installed windows XP with SP1 integrated and no matter what I tried, every single game crashed within seconds of the map/level loading. I spent four days of formats,un-installs, re-installs and every imaginable driver,hardware and bios setting combination you can think of and no matter what I kept on getting the same problem.

I won't bore you with all the details of my troubles I'll just tell you that I eventually came across an old beta driver for via chipset based motherboards which solved the problem. This is a snippet from the readme explaining what it does:

"It closes the RX55 memory register in BIOS. The RX55 register's official name and function is Memory Write Queue (MWQ) timer. The MWQ timer is actually a timing device included in the memory host controller to prevent write data being held in the memory queue too long. After the data has been in the queue too long it times out. This timed out data is then given a higher write request priority. Now that might sound nice ? a bit of extra performance BUT the procedure fails when overloaded. 3D games and Win XP put too much load on the memory queuing timer procedure. The nVidia new driver exaggerates the problem even more as the driver enables nVidia cards to use even more memory than previous driver versions.

So in a nutshell it?s a memory timing problem that only happens when the RX55 register is opened. Some motherboard manufacturers have already released new BIOS that have the register closed. In other instances, this patch is needed."
-
They also say in it that this driver will "probably end up being a silent install patch in the next version of the 4in1 drivers" I don't know why but this obviously never happened as the date of the zip containg the drive is "03 December 2001" !!!! and there's been a hell of a lot of 4in1 drivers since then.

So like I said this worked for me and if you're absolutely at the edge of your sanity looking for a solution (and you've got a via chipset motherboard of course) you may as well give it a try also.

I should also point out to anyone else thinking about trying it that they should bear in mind that is specific to a problem of games crashing within seconds of the map/level loading. The more common instabilities of random re-boots or lock ups after a fair amount of time are more likely to do with the usual reasons and this driver isn't likely to do much for you.

Here's the url if you want to give it a try:

http://downloads.viaarena.com/drive...est_driver1.zip

Good luck

Also it will punt you out of servers if you have a Skin(s) in your bhd directory at all and the server doesent allow custom skins..
