Access Violation and Video Compatbility problem

[Coolio]

Ok i get a different access violation problem. Mines says: Access Violation at address 0056DF6F in module 'SOLDAT.EXE' Read address FFFFFFFF. I clicked on Video Compactability and all it did was when i clicked on the soldat it just kept on loading for an hour and nothing happend. The soldat window didnt even pop up. And also when i try clicking on a server in the lobby all it says is Connection Accepted and nothing happens.

Run Soldat in 16 bit 640x480 (you might have to change your desktop color depth).
Have you done a fresh install of the full 1.4? If not, might wanna try that too.

You can look around in the other topics on this issue in this section too.

I did all those things. =(

Try checking video compatibility, run Soldat in 16 bit 640x480  and in fullscreen.

i get the same problem but with a code of  "access violation at address 0056DF6F in module "Soldat.exe". read of address 00000000" i've tried Every thing and nuthingand when i run on "Video Campatibility" i can't use my mini map and im registed...plus when i try and join a server i play for 5 sec and it says wrong map version detected

The only way I could get around this issue was to:

1. Check 16 bit
2. Select 640x480
3. Turn OFF antialiasing AND dithering
4. Turn ON video compatibility
5. Turn OFF force software
6. Turn OFF ATI fix.
7. Run in full screen

let us know how this goes.

Well i had this posted here yesterday but im guessing it got deleted (since it looses money for mm)

Ok, I got an error with the 00000 as the address...

Here was my fix:

1. Take your s-reg.key file and move it somewhere (ex: desktop)

2. Start -> Run -> Regedit -> HKEY_CURRENT_USER (i think thats it) Software -> Soldat -> Delete the item labeled "Key" (DONT DELETE THE ONE THAT SAYS DEFAULT)

3. Save all your mods/interfaces/taunts/font/anything else you want to keep to your desktop that you dont want to loose(copy/paste)

4. Uninstall Soldat and all its components.

5. Reinstall the full 1.4 version

6. Place the s-reg.key back into your soldat folder

7. Double click the s-reg.key

And then your soldat should work (or atleast get rid of the access violation 0000000)

Hope this helps

EDIT: for the directx problems my only suggestion is downloading the latest version of it at their site.

^Ill try that one when I get back home.

Also try turning on the Windows compability mode to 98/Me mode.

(Right click on the soldat.exe, go properties and there the compability section. Set it for Windows 98/Me.)


It slightly reduced the amount of access violations, but they still keep popping up.

Maybe some wierd script bugged it or something
