The Passing Causing Crashes?
8 years ago
Virginia, USA

I was running The Passing earlier today, an hour through an all campaigns run, and I got a CTD (crash to desktop) while gathering gas cans for the finale. I ran L4D2 again, not sure if it would still count as a run since the campaign wouldn't technically be done in a single segment. I got all the gas cans into the generator, waited by the exit ramp, and boom, another CTD. Any idea what causes this? Has this happened to anyone else? Every other campaign works perfectly fine, but I can't seem to finish The Passing at all. I can't verify through Steam because I don't have stable internet.

Also, if I crash to desktop, would the run still be considered legitimate if I picked up where I left off, or would I have to start the campaign/run over again?

Please excuse the poor quality, it took almost two hours to upload this 30MB video with throttled 1X phone internet.

is this current steam version or an old one? sometimes my game crashes when i throw pipe bombs or molotovs at my feet. seems related to the tank? if i had to guess the game fucked up when he tried to throw a rock. maybe try lowering your settings and try again? disable any add-ons if you had any on too

I'm using 2.1.3.9, which is apparently the most recent version. I thought it was something to do with the Tank, as well, so I spawned about a billion Tanks randomly around the map to see if I could recreate whatever circumstances were in place at the time of recording, and other than it being incredibly annoying, nothing really happened.

I was using EBC's bunnyhop add-on at the time and nothing else, but I tried spawning Tanks with and without it active, with no effect. I'll keep my graphics around medium and try again some other time, as I tend to get slowdowns and near-CTDs more often when I play on high. I can't say I've ever crashed when throwing things at my feet, though. I guess it's just L4D being L4D.

Minor rule changes/clarifications

Hey everyone, some minor changes to the rules - solely to clarify things/change wording, no rules actually "changed" (at least not in any way that will be relevant to 99.9% of people):
