IC2 Advanced Machine Errors Game Unplayable 2.1

[perpetualgamer]

Launcher/pack Version: Tekkit 2.1

Operating System: Win7 64-bit

Version of Java: Java7

Description of Problem: Whenever my game loads Advanced Machines that have been cached, meaning that I didn't place them in the last time the game was on, it locks up and then after 5-10 seconds it flashes my screen like my graphics driver is reset. The game then is pitch black, I can hear sound, but I can't interact with anything, but my character stays logged in until I ctrl-alt-del the java process.

Error Messages: N/A

I have Java7, Also this is the client, not the tekkit 2.1 server... I appreciate your effort though, sincerely.

Ah I'm sorry, my bad... In that case, I apologize. What I did to fix this error myself (I'm on Snow Leopard, no java 7 for me ) was just delete the IC2 advanced machines mod from the mods folder... you can do basically the same thing with upgrades (though granted somewhat more expensive.

[perpetualgamer]

Problem is that if I do that i get an error about not having IC2 Advanced Machines when trying to join my favorite servers. Thank you for your continued advice, I'm really hoping to fix this problem.

[termhn]

No... just disable it server-side... not in the launcher.

EDIT: Oh wait... I read your post wrong. Bah... I'm not sure.

[perpetualgamer]

Easily the most frustrating bug i've encountered... Worse part is that it works on my Mac...

[termhn]

:P haha, mac for the win! I'm gonna run my new box on linux for a while... might try to make it a hackintosh.

[perpetualgamer]

I love mac, but all my gaming is on my PC... So I want that to work too, ya know what I mean?

Anyway, Bump for help.

[termhn]

Hmm, just thought of something... try downloading the mac/linux version on your PC, it's what I'm using on my Windows machine...

[perpetualgamer]

mac verison of what?

[termhn]

Technic Launcher... it's just a .jar, it works on windows too.

[perpetualgamer]

I only ever use the jar version? Thanks again though.

I DID try windows launcher once, but it didn't fix anything.

[DragnHntr]

Did you make sure the java7 you installed was 64 bit?

[perpetualgamer]

Yessir.

[perpetualgamer]

Bump, but with helpful information

I installed VMPLayer and installed windows 7 on top of it, intalled java 7 and technic windows launcher, works fine.. But can't play on it cause the mouse is way wonky, but the game loads the chunk with advanced machines just fricken fine... Someone stab me...

[termhn]

Hmm, do you have any external hard drives big enough to hold your stuff? Even though you said you didn't want to, the only idea I have is to reinstall windows :/ If you have some space, to test it before you do it, you could partition off some of your hard drive and install a fresh version of windows, java, and technic on there and see if it works.

IC2's audio code is complete shit and if you don't mute MC sometimes if audio is playing from any IC2 machine you'll stutter unplayably outside of any chunk with IC2 stuff in it.

[perpetualgamer]

Tried muting, no such luck.

[perpetualgamer]

Ok.. I LOVE minecraft enough.. That I will lose EVERYTHING on my computer... and reformat...

I hate my life...

EDIT: What if it's my graphic drivers... Cause with VMWare player, it uses weird graphics drivers. I'll be so pissed...

[termhn]

You could try other graphics drivers...

[havocx42]

Have you tried disabling Matmos?

[perpetualgamer]

I wouldn't evne know where to get other graphics drivers, older ATI Drivers?

Yes I've disabled Matmos :)

[termhn]

Well at least partition off some of your drive and try it there first...

[perpetualgamer]

Yeah, I'm going to do that next weekened just design stuff in technic till then. My internet is crap but they redoig it next week, so when I have to redownload everything. ezpz :)

[termhn]

OK.
