Fatal Error

[sdaoust]

I am at the very last area of ending 3 (Dead), tried to enter the doors to the floating book platforms, and I get this error message:
"Cache_TryAlloc: 11364288 is greater then free hunk"
I have tried everything I could to avoid it. However, the error always occurs. It is now impossible to get to the next area.
EDIT: The crash was avoided. However, I had to run the launch app, use 800x600 resolution, windowed, and 16-bit color in order to prevent the crash.

Sounds to me like awful memory allocation from the game engine. Perhaps due to the "add-on" that the dev team incorporated. There's really little they can do about it without reverse engineering the GldSrc engine or having the header files from the source code. I heard an idea from another thread about using a community built game engine that works on GldSrc games. Would be really great to see the CoF use it, certainly would solve a TON of problems!

You can increase the heap size to be even bigger than it already is.

Right click CoF in Steam, properties, set launch options

-num_edicts 2048 -heapsize 1024000

And then run through Steam.

Nope,doesn't work for me.

Increase heapsize. If you have more than 2gigs of ram, try -heapsize 2048000
