Crash To Desktop But Plays In Singleplayer Wth?
« on: 22-12-2010, 00:12:54 »
i know theirs been many topics like this or similiar topics about crashes to desktop but mine is quite wierd itself, i can play Forgotten hope 2 normally in local game like if i create my own server against the AI in Co-op or singleplayer yet when i try to join an online game, it crashes to the desktop, now i know its not a shader problem nor is my FH2 outdated i downloaded the latest version of FH2 and i have the latest patch for BF2, so i dont know what the problem could be and its definatelly not my specs on my machine either, can someone kindly please help me out here!?.

It sounds more like a firewall problem. Could you run FH2 in windowed mode (add "+fullscreen 0" in the target properties of your FH2 desktop link) and check the error message for us?

The problem is, i didn't recieve any error messages or anything, it just showed a black screen and "boom" straight to desktop, singleplayer runs fine, and its not a shader problem either, not that i have any problems fighting the AI but i miss the teamwork etc online :(

I've tried FH2 with the firewall off, tried loading an online server and it still crashes me!, please help me :( and my bf2 is the latest version too! :(

Did you do what N24 said, run it in windowed mode. In full screen you don't always get to see an error message.

You have correct version of FH2?

Because if you have older version it afaik does just like that, coop runs fine as you are not connected to a dedicated server but if you go online it will crash at somepoint when it figures out you have different version.

Try reinstall the whole game can always solve this problem. Stupid but it works

To check you have the current installation of FH2, go into the mod folder and look for the file "changelog.txt", which contains the version details.

Version 2.3 will have this build number
