Well, I downloaded it, installed it, launched it and everything seemed fine. Then, when I tried to start a game, I got this error:
Shutting down performance queries
idHeap::AllocateAligned request for 927319856 bytes aligned at 16 failed
I have:
Intel Pentium D Dual core 3.40GHz CPU
1022mb RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX
I have updated my Graphics drivers, it was the first thing I tried.
Other than that, I have no idea what to do.
Thank you.

I got a more full error message this time:

From what I can tell, it seems to be asking for a ridiculous amount of physical memory.
927319856 bytes to be precise.

2 different servers and Against the computer.
It did a minute of loading, then crashed with that error.
Same here. Any Ideas?

We can safely assume it can't have much to do with our hardware, then. Please, anyone?
Failing that, is there anywhere I can go to get developer support?

I downloaded Enemy Territory: Quake wars from Steam, and it worked fine. We must've downloaded a corrupt version or something.
