We only play for a couple of hours each week so the timeline is a little exaggerated.
About a month or so ago one of my players machine started crashing. Not just FGU but the whole system, black screen and completely unresponsive. The machine functions normally if FGU is not running.
We were using a custom map for Tomb of Horrors. This same map has been in use for months. What happens is the player loads the map and as soon as they try to move their character the machine crashes. I updated the graphics drivers with no improvement. I then set up the game with no extensions or added modules and it still happens. We tried running a deferent dungeon and it looked like it was working for about 2 minutes and then it crashed again. As an experiment I went in and disabled dynamic lighting and we were able to complete the session. Then just as another experiment I put the character back on the Tomb of Horrors map with lighting disabled and it worked for about 45 seconds before crashing again.
I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what's going on. I'm going over to their house for Turkey day and I'll check out their log files but I'm not hopeful. BTW all the other players machines work fine.
Thanks
Dave
