Troubleshooting - Game Crashes

[Lazarus]

Ive been playing WZ and at some point every time I'm on it will crash, sometimes in 10min and other times with at least 40mins. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Lazarus

Your crashing in ig4dev32.dll
That means your video drivers, you need to update them.

Most likely, but not sure. Warzone might pass an invalid pointer to GL, and be at fault even though the crash happens in the driver.

My video driver is up to date, and I've also tried running on 32 bit instead of 64 but I haven't seen any improvement. All I can do for now is save every 5 min or so, a bit tedious but worth it for a classic such as WZ. Thanks for any and all input though,

Unfortunately, we can't fix intel's drivers.
(if it was a WZ issue, then we would see crashes in Nvidia & ATI/AMD, but that isn't the case.)

Tried disabling shaders?

[Lazarus]

Actually I have not, I'll have to give that a try. It'll have to be tomorrow though, as I have to hit the hay for work tomorrow morning.
Thank you,
Lazarus

^This is exactly what the issue turned out to be. Disabling shaders kills ig4dev32.dll error.

Thank you very much NoQ, and thanks to all who provided input.

Grumble.
Which chipset are you using anyway ?
One of these days intel might fix their broken drivers.

Intel GMA series 4 express
Terrible, I know but its all I have to work with at the present.

Guess they will never fix it then, since the product falls under

Funny thing is, if you installed linux, it would work, since those people have fixed that issue...
