PR CTD (ghostmanager.cpp)

[Dayski]

So I got my PR reinstalled a few times already, but still can't get it working.
I can join servers and play for about 10-15 mins fine, then crash to desktop.


So I launched PR windowed and got that error:

It looks like you don't have vanilla BF2 patched to v1.5 .

LITOralis.nMd']I'll post this and I put in bold the most important part. Let your friend read through this and check to see if he installed in the correct order.

Was BF2 installed and working before you installed PR? Was BF2 patched to 1.5 ?
Can you log in to vanilla BF2?
If BF2 was already working, we'll suggest one course of action. (Could be firewall/antivirus/router/installation error/etc)
IF BF2 was just installed NOW so you can play PR, all the parts have to be installed in proper order.
Please read below and make sure you installed BF2 and PR in this order:




Here is the installation guide with download links:
PR:BF2 Support - Project Reality Forums
https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f27-pr ... guide.html

Here is the installation guide in tl;dr format:

Install BF2.
Run BF2.
Note the version number on the bottom left corner of the log-in screen. Write it down.
log in or create a user account.
join online game.
adjust your audio and video settings now for convenience.
exit BF2.
Reboot.

(Optionally if you bought it) install Special Forces Addon.
Run BF2.
log in.
join online game.
exit BF2.
Reboot.

install 1.41 FULL PATCH.
Run BF2.
log in.
join online game.
exit BF2.
Reboot.

install 1.5 PATCH.
Run BF2.
log in.
join online game.
exit BF2.
Reboot.

Download and install 0.973 full installer.
Start the PR shortcut on desktop.
log in.
exit PR.

Download and install the PR 0.973 to 0.981 Patch
(If it CTDs, Edit the PR shortcut as described below.)
Start the PR shortcut on desktop.
log in.
join online game.

If you crash at the splash screen, or the screen goes black and then crashes to desktop, try to start PR in windowed mode by following the directions below:

Edit your PR shortcut and ( what AfterDune said ) put this in it

Code: Select all

Code:
"D:\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.

You can then download the PR:Vietnam, PR:Normandy, PR:Falklands and Anders Soundmod at your discretion.

It looks like you may be running an unsupported version of Windows. As the OS gently puts it, "You may be a victim of software counterfeiting."

Also, are you running a cracked version of BF2? The fact that you're getting a debug assert suggests a non-retail DLL.

[Psyrus]

Edit: Nevermind, I read the OP properly this time.

This problem seems to have cropped up randomly since the game was released. It has to do with something between your BF2 and whatever version of Windows you are using.

At this point, there are no known solutions.

[Dayski]

here's a lil update.

I've installed another copy of windows(totally different version) then installed bf 1.0 and it still crashes with ghostmanager error.

[LITOralis.nMd]

I don't have much to offer you,
