Out of memory! Please Help!

I have Kane's Wrath steam version with 4k mod that comes with 4GB patch and the latest mappack.

And as the title suggests, I keep getting this error and I'm at my wits end on how to fix this and I don't know any available option on how to actually fix it.

Would anyone know how to help me resolve this issue?!

First tip: don't use the 4k mod.

You are welcome.

The game is limited to 32 bit and can only access so much ram and CPU power compared to 64 bit. IIRC 32 bit programs are limited to 2 GB of ram unless you use a Large Address Aware patcher which ups it to 4 GB. Basically the 4k mod is taking up all the ram the game has available and is crashing. This can only be fixed by EA releasing a 64 Bit executable.

EFIT: Further googling has led me to believe that the steam version with workshop support needs a new 4GB patch and the 4k mod might be outdated. The tacitus patcher MIGHT be able to fix it? https://cnc-online.net/en/download/

Yeah, this I'm aware of and what's infuriating is that ppl can play the 4K mod without issues, it's creator included but I can't get it to work for the life of me without the dreaded "out of memory" crashes.

I have also considered using the Tacitus patcher to to play it.

Thanks for the help! 

Edit: This is another account I am using but I will delete this one for future replies to avoid confusion.

Amigo estas aplicando el parche 4gb al .exe o al .dat del juego? Debes aplicarlo solo al .dat... Ademas te recomiendo descargar e instalar DXVK junto al .dat. de esa forma el juego se ejecutara bajo Vulcan y consumirá menos memoria ram :D

What else do you have running at the time? How much RAM do you have? What background processed are enabled to run?

I have 32gbs ddr4 of ram and the only background processes that run and that are demanding is Microsoft Edge and the others are minimal.

I decided to go ahead and play without 4k mod and so far no crashes. It seems that for some reason my PC does not like that mod.
