Application has run out of memory?

Velenda · 12-24-2011, 08:13 PM

When trying to have a tour of the new appartments in Freeport, I got this error. I've never gotten this before, when running EQ2 at any time.

Is anyone else getting this?

I'm running EQ2 windowed on XPPro 32 bit, SP3, 4gigs of ram, ATI Radeon 4870X2 HD. o_O

Also, as far as I know, there is nothing wrong with my system, I can run Skyrim and other games just fine....also an 'other' MMO with a youtube vid in the background, with steam running. So I think my memory levels are fine.

If you mean the error "Application has run out of memory while requesting xx bytes...", there is already a thread for that issue. It's a very intermittent error that hits some systems and not other. It has nothing to do with total system RAM and everything to do with how Windows (possibly DX9) handles memory for client programs. It is also an issue that has been around for years, literally.
