Common crash but cannot be solved in any methods
« on: 27-02-2010, 10:02:30 »
Hello I'm new in FH community, can someone help me to figured out my problem. I have installed it correctly, first part goes first and the second. But after I finished installing the mod and I run it, the screen goes black for a while, and then it goes back to desktop with an error message written,

Quote
Shaders/StaticMesh.fx not found!!! _DO_ check your working directory _AND_ sinc your shaders folder before calling upon your local rendering programmer/GP (really!)

Then I tried to Googled anything about this crash, I've founded some but I have tried it all, from deleting the file directory inside cache, downloading new shader_client.zip for BF2 and FH2. Unfortunately the crash still goes on. Please, I'm begging someone to help me out, thanks. :(

P.S. Once I ever tried to patch it to v1.5, after I download for a long time and then I run the setup. It said that my BF2 had newer version. Is it fine?

I'm using Windows XP SP2.

UPDATE, I've just patched my FH2 from 2.20 to 2.25, installation was succeed but the crash keeps appearing when I run my FH2 with the same error message, someone help me please. :(

Yes, you need the 2.25 shaders_client.zip.
As you have written, you already downloaded the shaders again, but still I can upload them again for you, better try it again with shaders that are working for 100%.

Tell me a mirror where you want them to have uploaded and I'll upload them there.

Put them into EA Games/Battlefield 2/mods/fh2.

Tell me if it's still not working, otherwise, have fun. :)

If you tried to patch to BF2 patch 1.5 and it said you have a newer version, it usually means you don't have BF2 patch 1.41 installed.  Patch 1.5 is an incremental patch from 1.41, so you need 1.41 installed before installing 1.5.

To make sure you have everything straight, you might want to uninstall everything and start over:

BF2
Patch 1.41
Patch 1.5
FH2 2.2 part one
FH2 2.2 part two
Fh2 2.25

Uninstall everything and do a install again in the proper order.

BF2 1.41
BF2 1.5
FH 2.2
FH 2.25

Hah Ionizer beats me to the punch, damn speedy squirrel  ;)

Yippie! I can play FH2 now! It's working sir, thank you so much! Anyway, what do I need to make a FH2 server? Because I might create a server for people here in Indonesia. :)

Special thanks to Aggroman, Ionizer and NTH. :)

Do you want it to be a dedicated server or one that you create ad-hoc.
The latter is easy to do and can be done from within the multiplayer tab. It's something called create game iirc.

For the former you need to download the server files.

A dedicated server is basically a computer that hosts the game, but doesn't run the client version of it-in other words no one is playing the game on the computer, so it doesn't have to do any graphics calculations.

By ad-hoc he means hosting the game on your computer, forcing it to both host the game server and run graphics, which is far easier to set up but doesn't give good performance with a large number of players. This is the only  method Xbox360s and other consoles use, so if you've played them you'd be getting similar performance to that on your computer.

Also, I know we have some Australian and Chinese players here, does anyone know if there are some servers already located in the area?

I see, what do you suggest if I just want to play with my friends in my city? Cause I might have massive ping if I play with European or American community. :( I don't know about Australian, but my ping seems fine if I join them, as Australia is not too far from Indonesia.
