How to resolve "Memory cannot be read" error, If you get this error try this(NOT SURE) Options

[Dendari]

Hi all! I read about players (included me) that have the "Memory cannot be read" error. I think i've found a solution. I'm not sure if this is the problem, just try. I notice that if i or a bot is an engineer the game crash, error: "memory cannot be read". I've tried to play without any engineers and the game didn't crash. Just try to play without engineers. Let me know if this work, so Cheeseh (ty for these bots ) will fix this.

Sry bad english, i hope you've understand me.

I still cannot reproduce this with engineers in the game. But it could be a problem that I have not encountered yet. But I really need other people to debug the bot with the source code running so they can capture where in the code the bot is crashing so then it can be fixed much easier. Also make sure you are using the latest Steam version of TF2 and the latest Bot version as engineer crash bugs have been fixed in the past, and some people decide to use non steam versions so that means they use older versions of the bot.

i run several dedicated tf2 servers with varied setups (all on Windows Server 2003 host)... even totally vanilla these bots still crash my servers as soon as they are added... class makes no difference as they never make it into the game... The only thing i can imagine is that they dont like being run as user "system" (which is necessary for game to run independent of user logged on i.e. servers run whether or not anyone is currently logged into host machine)

I have tried just about everything i can think of to get this working (no, i am not a noob... been running my clan's servers for a couple years now and am fairly good at it... )

I will keep watching for and trying updates as they are released in hopes that eventually i can run these... i had them running on a vanilla setup before last update, and loved them... for the 2 days they ran... lol Fing valve... it never ends...

Great work so far... we love u for it!! TF2 desperately needs some effective bots!!

I also get this. Just playing and suddenly the screen freezes, sound loops, and I get the "Memory can not be "read"" error.
It seems to happen at random times. Sometimes it never happens. Other times it can frequently happen.
