there is a memory leak problem when you alt tab while using fullscreen mode.
http://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/131696/memory-leaks-while-tabbed-out-in-fullscreen-windowed
There seems to be a memory leak outside of what Gamerkatze said. In my experience fullscreen mode and no alt tab has a memory leak and windowed mode has a memory leak. No matter what settings I set it to there is a memory leak and an eventual crash.
Error: Sound 'sound/NS2.fev/ambient/spooky_music_summit' couldn't be loaded (Not enough memory or resources. )
So basicly, what they said. There is a alttab bug, I think it was windowed mode only but not sure, and they are working on it.
Do NOT alt tab if you dont check memory now and then, especially if you only have around 4GB of it.
@Draptor: looking at my CPU and GPU temperatures is one of the first things I checked. They are not the problem.
@DC_Darkling: From my experience there is a memory leak no matter setting I set it to. Windowed mode or fullscreen mode and NO alt tab still eventually see a crash after 20 minutes which lead me to believe there was a memory leak in the game no matter what. Yet people only talk about the alt tab leak?
Sorry don't mean to hijack your thread OP but I have the same problems and your thread is the only one to stay on the first page while all others with the same problem seemed to have been ignored and buried.
becuase when Alt + Tab or Windows key >> lead to another crash error : "Awesomemonium.exe has stoped working"
Every time is a crash , but im still enjoy this game thought
Just want UWE to realese patch fix on next update build 255 , not "Reinforced Model and Skin is our priority"
Navigate to your NS2 install folder and run techsupport.exe. This will make a potentially large dump file (inside the zip that techsupport.exe makes, there will be a folder called "minidump") that you can then upload to somewhere online (like Drop box) and provide a link to it in here or to a dev. This dump file is the fastest, most accurate method to catch a crash!
Also, here's mine. Same problem. I've tried everything, the known fixes and other thread suggestions, including the common suggestions of deleting a bunch of various different folders and reinstalling (4 times).
For my own sanity, I have to add that it does seem to only happen when something cool is about to happen.
Getting rushed and just got enough resources to go Onos? Crash
Wandered into the alien base and no one is guarding it? Crash
I'm sure I've pissed off a lot of people by disconnecting at very inopportune times.
If the exe spits out an error while making the dump file, please let me know.
Thanks
Will attempt the process again later.

I hope UWE can imporve these problem rather than " New Skin"
If so i wish to close it and consolidate all updates to this one thread.
1/ Start Steam
2/ NS2 click play
3/ Play one match >> maybe random crash or just play fine
4/ Loading to next map >>> Crash with NS2 has failed to locate bla bla and now will terminate
5/ Ctrl+alt + Delete >> End task >> Re-join that server .......
More logging on the way it looks like. Something to do with fragmented memory.
