Co-Operative Crash to Desktop?

Post by Josh131313 »

Hey guys. I'd really like to create a local co-operative game to practice so I don't make people mad, but I've encountered a problem. When I click "create local" and set the information, as soon as I press the button to start it, I crash to desktop. Instantly. Keep in mind that I can play multiplayer just fine. I checked the error log and these were the entries made at the time.

Code: Select all

I just need someone to translate that for me. :P Let me know if you need more information, I'd just like to get it fixed.

Your aspect ratio and screen size is incorrectly set, simple problem to fix.
Also, make sure to run PR.exe as an admin.

Edit your PR shortcut and put this in it:

Code:
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" +restart +menu 1 +fullscreen 0 +szx 1280 +szy 720
Dont just copy paste this, but adjust to your install location. Make sure you dont omit quotation marks or it wont work.
If you start in windowed mode and it CTDs, a Message will pop up telling you the problem. Take a screenshot or write this down and post it to this thread.

Which map are you trying to use for co-op server?

DO you have PRVietnam minimod installed?

I'm not sure the PRV has co-op player mode.
