is tanki rejecting to use ram disk as cache?

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

I couldnt been able to play for 3 weeks now, flash player stopped working, tanki client stopped working. Its stuck on loading screen but with browser i have horrible graphics. This started happening when i changed all environment variables to K:/TEMP , my ramdisk, because it means data will load faster, and get clean after reboot.

This was grate decision. Apps were more efficient, but tanki online wasnt. It just stopped working. Also i attempted changing it back and it doesnt work. Tanki got damaged permanently. Please help me. Does this happen because tanki doesnt support ram disk? Or it could be some system error, should i reinstall windows? 
FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS THIS OPEN SPOILER

Reverse it to the old status, like it was earlier

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

I already tried, doesnt work

[ToiIetPaper_BS 528]

Well, as per your basic question, wrt the client: No tanki doesn't reject ram....rather client uses more ram to boost gaming experience..I have tracked this.

 

Now, as per your case, if it is possible for you to reinstall Windows without loosing data, then you can go for it (that will be kinda 'Factory Reset (Settings Only)' that we have in mobile phones)

Am I the only one who doesn't get this stuff?

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

*That moment when devs see someone even wants to re-install Windows because of their game.*

 

I understood the main text, but...

Have you tried reinstalling the client after going back to hard drive? Clearing the cache?

[Hate 5,582]

Easy steps to follow can be found in here, re-installing the Client and clearing it's cache. 

[CabbageRoll 3,018]

here is list of things i tried

1) clearing cache

2) uninstall client and install

3) clear cahe

4) moved cache around every possible ram partition, hdd partition, usb, and sd card

5) tried every browser

6) used flash player sa 25

7) downgraded to fp 13 sa

8) reinstalled flash player

9) installed windows 7 but i simply cant find network drivers.

10) completely denied cache memory

 

here is list of things that i did not try

1) install windows xp again

2) maybe controller causes error. i will toggle to old controller compatibility for harddisk (sata -> ahci)

3) ill attempt to find network droovers for windows 7

4) install window 95 maybe? (xD)

5) oh, and maybe i should try it on virtual machine. then i will exactly see what causes problem but i wuld need ton of free space for that

6) wait for windows 9 to be released so i can try there

Did you try resetting the environment variables back to it's original way? Usually resets after a reboot? You can read more about it in here. 

 

You can also try to make your windows go back to an early date when TO was working for you by using the restore system option if nothing else would help.

i never use restore point because i use windows on partition that totally lost data ( my c drive "died" and i lost all my old pictures luckily i have around 90% of them in cloud drive so im trying to recover every possible piec of data) so i never do anything that will go over 10mb in usage of c drive and, i never make restoration points & drive backups

 

right now its impossible to try anything( becuz its 2am and i use phone)but i came up with few ideas i can try before installing another windows

 

change controller of hdd

find network drivers for w7 and try there

and the best but slowest and 100% working: seeing whats problem by experimenting in vbox

 

so basically i tried everything basic ( yes i also moved cache back to original place) so you can close this as unsolvable. thanks to everyone hate for a little bit of gelp, but this basic troubleshooting just doesnt help.

 

i thought of another problem... could it be the problem with last updates? maybe 700KB is too weak to play tanki with tons of those new updates :(

Which windows you use may I ask if you don't mind? And no, topic will stay open till it is solved unless you really really want to close it than we can do it but let's make that as our ''last'' option for now. :)

i "downgraded"(windows 7 was original windows of pc) to windows xp because i think its better than windows 7, also that opens me possibility to do triple boot of windows xp,7, and android. but i still dont understand why in one moment while i was playing tanki simply "stopped" and it wasnt loading.

 

but, it works only on google chrome. but i cannot interact with anything (shoot, collect boxes) so i can play only parkour.

 

i just dont know what happened, it was working for about 2 weeks after i changed cache to ramdisk and i tried setting back everything i could think of to earlier point like i was going on system restore 3 months ago

Windows XP isn't supported anymore, and it would probably be better to use Windows 7
