Carmageddon TDR 2000 crashes in Send in the Sharks

carmageddontechnical-issues

Carmageddon TDR 2000 has recently been made available through Steam with the upcoming release of Carmageddon: Reincarnation, but as with many old games, it doesn't work perfectly.

Although the first level plays fine, the second level, "Send in the Sharks", crashes on loading with the following message:

Direct X Error 0x80070057

I'm running Windows 8.1 64-bit, and the game crashes when selecting either my GeForce GT 735M or Intel HD Graphics 4000.

Is there any way to resolve this?

As suggested on this forum, simply disabling the Mip Filter works around the crash.

  1. Launch TDR 2000 Setup.
  2. Select "Options".
  3. Under "Display", select "Advanced >>".
  4. Locate the option for "Mip Filter" and set it to "None".
  5. Press OK and launch the game.
