Interesting COD bug...
« on: September 09, 2004, 11:39:04 PM »
If you ever see an error that look like this;


recursive error after:  Hunk_AllocateTempMemory: failed on 4194320

134217728 bytes total hunk
&
126992832 total hunk in use

It says that it has too little hunk-memory.

I've been searching on google and found this:

COM_HUNKMEGS
If the map fails to load on startup or you get a hunk allocation error message, you'll need to change a setting from console:

After the game starts, hit the ~ tilde key to bring down console
Type the following or change the number to anywhere upto 3/4 of memory available. EG: if you have if you have 128 meg in your system, you can set it up to 96.  It defaults to 36 megs on install.

/set com_hunkmegs 96

This only needs to be set once, as it is saved in a configuration file by rtcw. This setting will let COD allocate more memory for a map to load and will not make any maps run slower, quite the opposite.

If that doesn't work the other bug that this error refrences is a sound problem that you fix like this;

Turn the Sound quality down in the Sound options menu to 11 kHz.

From the main menu select OPTIONS>SOUND and change your sound to (low) 11 kHz

Don't Apologize to Snauz. What is the matter with you?  :eek:
No matter how hard you try to push the envelope, remember it's only stationary.
