EDIT: It looks like this does not just apply to hosting a server, but for anyone playing the game on Windows 8 or newer.
Hello, it seems like some people are having issues with SYSDUMP errors in Joint Ops. After a few hours of hosting or playing, the game will crash with that beloved sysdump error. I have discovered a solution to this.
This applies to: Windows 7 / Server 2008 R2, Windows 8 / Server 2012, Windows 8.1 / Server 2012 R2, Windows 10 / Server 2016 and newer
1. After you've installed the game, DO NOT START IT. Proceed to step 2 at this point if you've never started Joint Ops on your current install of Windows. If you've started the game before, you'll need to go into your AppData folder and delete the old Joint Operations folder. For me was in the following folder: C:Users%USERNAME%AppDataLocalVirtualStoreProgram Files (x86)NovaLogic
2. From here, we need to go into your Joint Ops folder located in C:Program Files (x86).
3. Right click the
NovaLogic folder and click
Properties.
4. Click the Security tab.
5. Click Edit...
6. In the Group or user names box, scroll down and click Users (YOURNAME-DESKTOPUsers).
7. Below that, you'll see a box titled Permissions for Users. In it, there's a section titled Full control, to the right of that, click the checkbox for Allow and click OK for the next two windows.
8. Now, you can start Joint Ops and host your game, the sysdump errors should no longer occur. Please also note that you may need to reinstall Joint Ops and follow the instructions above again if this did not work.
Please let me know how well this worked for you by posting a response to this thread. Please don't PM me with questions since someone else may have the same question and may want to see our responses.
