Spearhead Crashing Fix

Been reading a lot of posts at Planet Medal of Honor forum about Spearhead crashing halfway through a map load. I encountered the problem the first day Spearhead came out (Wed here on the East Coast) and started looking for the problem. Found out it comes from the DasBoot map, downloadable here at AlliedAssault.com. To fix the problem remove User-Dasboot.pk3 from the MOHAA\MAIN directory and Spearhead will start working normally. All other maps have worked fine for me. There must be something in the file name or arrangement that Spearhead doesn't like. Also, reports that the Blood mod causes white squares to appear around dead bodies, though I haven't seen this one myself yet.

Hope this helps anybody having problems with Spearhead.

sharpblood mod works fine if you need a replacement.

My CrizzBlood 2.1 works fine. Probably my older blood files do also the white squares!

I readded my mod maps and my crosshair back to mohaa/main without Das Boot map. All was well ! evil: The game ran fine no freezing or crashing. Went on Game Spy and played a couple of servers no problems. The tow maps play real well and are real fun to play on.

The only glitches that I have experienced are that the report & muzzle flash for the Enfield rifle disappear as fps decrease. I've noticed this in both SP and MP. When the fps get < 10 or 11 fps, the enfield does not sound or flash. Too bad becasue it's a nice rifle.

The only other glitch I've had happen is the medal box is full before you finish all the missions.

RD, you should be able to put together ine helluva of a server !

Nuther old guy,

All I'm waiting for is the game server provider to get back to me on how much more it will be and how fast he can install the game.

Getting ready to send Bazooka_Joe to the data center to "pay them a social visit" if you know what I mean. cool:
