Argosy freakiness

scowls

Frequently when I play EVC (on my 7600), my ship and/or my escorts load as Argosys. It also happens when my pilot dies, and I just reload the pilot.

This has happened ever since I installed EV, seven (?) years ago, and I haven't figured out how to remedy this except for quitting without landing, then restarting EV. It's not happening more frequently, it's just annoying. Do I need more RAM? Or adjust the game speed? Or just live with it?

I have EV 1.0.5. running on OS8 with a whopping 112MB RAM.
Virtual Memory is on.
800MB left on HD
Disc Cache always on. Cache size 96k.

Wierd...

Upping the RAM is always good.

Are you running any plugins?

Does it happen with new pilots?

Yes. And annoying as hell.

No addons now, only stock scenario. Occasionally it happens while playing a plugin. Socking cash into my old PowerPC isn't on the top of my list. I'd rather get something for my G4. Just wanted to know if that would be an issue in this case.

Never.
