Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory - Hunk_Alloc Failure





Hunk_Alloc Failure?


You get kicked from our Servers with a Message like this: "Hunk_Alloc failed on xxxxxx" when u are playing a big map?

That is due to ET reserving not enough memory of your computer RAM by default.

Here is a solution to fix the problem:

1. Start the game.
2. Open the console in the mainmenue with the [^] key.
3. Press [backspace] key 2x to remove the hidden ^ .
4. Type "/set com_hunkmegs 128" or a value like 1/3 to 2/3 of your RAM memory capacity.
5. Exit ET, so the game will load the new settings, when started.
6. Start ET.
7. Check for the right value by opening the console in the mainmenue
8. Then type "/com_hunkmegs" and then press [TAB]. The current value apper.
9. If value is still "56", retry step 1 to 6. If that does not work, ask for help in our Forum.
