Hello all, Still having issues with crashes, though I've isolated it to the 64 bit versions. 32 bit versions still seem to work (for now). Does anyone know why this is happening? What changed between updates to cause this? Has anyone figured out a fix? I finally managed to get someone to send me the first and third person merged file, but since that's 64 bit, it still crashes.

It’s easy, just start the game and when you load into a map, Alt-Tab out, open the FPWV.exe file and hit the “[“ button. Perfectly compatible with Heroes Unleashed as well. Let me know if it works for you, as I’m having trouble with crashes still after the latest Windows update.

Don't know if anyone else is affected by this but when I tried the FPWV after the latest Windows update, anytime I try to make the weapon model appear, the game outright crashes. Is this affecting anyone else? Event Viewer gives these two things: One is the Warning saying: The file could not be processed by the application D:\GOG Games\Tom Clancys Ghost Recon\GhostRecon.exe because it requires Indeo® Decoders of type IV32 And one is the error saying: Faulting application name: GhostRecon.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x73655965 Faulting module name: USER32.dll, version: 10.0.22621.608, time stamp: 0xc45ce044 Exception code: 0xc0000409 Fault offset: 0x00027151 Faulting process id: 0x0x5680 Faulting application start time: 0x0x1D8DAD29E1ABED9 Faulting application path: D:\GOG Games\Tom Clancys Ghost Recon\GhostRecon.exe Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\USER32.dll Report Id: 50e2e0ee-7e49-4b74-b4b8-47e4fdec92a1 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:

Hey, I know it’s been a looooooong while but has the .chr update happened yet? Still would love to have Sam Fisher in the game, but I still don’t know how to do that. My 3D modeling skills are terrible.

Well, thanks for helping as much as you did anyways. Hopefully once the .chr plugin is done, it'll make things a lot easier. Would be cool to add all sorts of different characters and such into the game.

If you would be so kind, could you modify the model for me and finish the rigging? I'm too inexperienced with 3D modeling in general to do much stuff here. I only got the SPAS-12 working because I found an already existing free model online, downloaded it, shrank it down to the reference size and then slapped the helper points where I needed them. Any actual 3D modeling is beyond my capabilities. Gah, why does this have to be so difficult? I just want to add Sam Fisher into the game. Someone prior was apparently working on doing the same thing years ago but never seemed to go anywhere. Well, I'm just happy JP_Hana (name right?) made the Rambo mod. That was awesome, and since I'm also a big Rambo fan, I just use him as my main character for now. lol Best Rambo game now.

Great, now that's gonna be even harder as I don't know how to modify the model. It was so much easier with the gun model just shrinking it down to the right size and putting the helper points where needed.

Understood. Is there an exact point where I'm supposed to place the bone points, btw? I'm still not sure if the points such as "hand", "forearm", "bicep" etc. are supposed to be located in the middle of what they're listed at or the joint where it's supposed to bend, ie "hand" is placed at the wrist, "forearm" at the elbow, etc.

Okay, using this other tutorial, I was able to successfully attach the bones, but it's nowhere near perfect. Not all the vertices are attached to the bones and the proportions are off. Are there any tricks to help me figure this out? What are the proper attachment points, anyways? EDIT: Here's the problem I'm running into. Not everything is being attached properly and therefore the model deforms, especially when the animation starts playing. The worst part seems to be the forearms and hands, which don't seem to get attached no matter what I do. Here's a couple screenshots of it. Here's also a dropbox link of the .max file that I'm using. https://www.dropbox.com/s/o3kdez7u06dstwh/Sam Fisher 3.max?dl=0

Also making another reply here just to see if anyone else can help me resolve this error trying to get the Sam Fisher model to work. Reposting what I said in another thread: Attempting to attach the bones from GhostReconBones.max to my SamFisherA.obj file, but the tutorial (https://www.ghostrecon.net/html/recon-chr.htm) tells me to scroll down to "Attach List" when I select GhostReconBones, but I don't see it. How far were you able to get?

Wanted to post another dedicated reply because I think I figured out the reason why it happens, though I have no idea why that thing happens or how to fix it. I noticed that when in replay, the tank column in Fever Claw jitters on the Command Map at certain points. I'm not even sure if the tank jittering is in the world itself as well or just the Command Map, as many times the tanks aren't directly on my screen in gameplay. However, it jitters particularly badly at 8x speed, and the times where it does freeze, it seems like the jittering was enough to cause the tank to clip slightly through the walls of the game world, which may be causing the freezing. There's still some jittering in 4x speed, but nowhere near as much, to the point where I suspect it never gets enough to actually clip out of the game world. So the question is, does anyone know why this jittering would happen on a Replay? And is there anything I can tweak to make it stop happening? This would explain why other levels seem to not have issues, as this level is dedicated towards escorting a tank column through a blown out city.

Blegh, well I was hoping someone could've told me why. Could it possibly be some Windows 11 update that changed certain memory parameters to be restricted, and therefore the game being older created an access violation? Or is this standard for all freezes in Ghost Recon since 2001?

I see. In that case, are there any ways to get around the limits? Like I said, I tried using a different SPAS-12 model, tried limiting the frame rate and even CPU cores, tried fiddling around with compatibility settings and Nvidia profile, is there anything I can do here?

Granted, the ikecrash.log didn't update anytime the game froze and I see the d3d8.dll file I attempted to use in game from dgVoodoo2, which didn't work. But I wonder if there's anything else here that anyone here can look at. I still don't know why this level in particular causes this problem when the previous Replay of Fever Claw never had this problem.

Interesting, though the odd part for me is that the previous replays using the exact same mods on the exact same level never had this issue. Maybe I’m getting better at the game and therefore running forward faster and shooting more things quickly? Specifically, it’s Fever Claw that’s giving me problems. Didn’t have an issue with my previous full recording of the level but I saved a new one that I thought was better and it gives constant crashes. There are fairly specific areas where it crashes, though whether it does crash or not is totally random. And sometimes I am able to get through the entire level. I am using the Rambo mod and an absurdly high res SPAS-12, but again, I never had this issue with the prior Replay. Maybe it was right on the cusp of crashing before and now that I’m better at the game, rushing ahead more and blasting enemies quicker, maybe it’s too much. I dunno. I wonder if there’s a way to mod the engine to increase this limit. I played around with compatibility settings, Nvidia profile inspector, etc. to no avail. EDIT: I tried testing the vertices theory by replacing my custom SPAS-12 model with a much lower poly version from another mod and it still freezes, and at the same area no less.

I recorded a Replay for Ghost Recon 1 on Fever Claw, yet every time I try to play the Replay at 8x speed, the replay freezes at various points. I am using mods, but I never ran into this issue before and my older replays on the same level with the same mods don't have this problem. Running at 4x seemed to have no issue, but why does 8x have it? Does anyone know what's going on and why it's happening?
