BF2editor "unhandled exception" when i try to load bf2 or bf2142

[Kiaksar2142]

Hi guys, i hope you r doing well =)

I have a small problem with editor here on my other laptop.

I installed editor there and tried to launch it. (and yeah i know about dx update and compatibility mode).
Editor itself launches, however when i try to load mod (bf2, bf2142 or any other mod) to start mapping, editor crashes with "unhandled exception" error.
It works fine on my main laptop, but on other laptop i can't launch it at all.

Btw, here is the specs of my laptop: Intel core i5 7th gen, Intel HD 620 graphics, 8gb ddr3 ram.

Is there anything i missed? or perhaps there is another way to make it work?


Thanks in advance!

You put seriously the content of BF2142 game into the BF2 Editor?

Can't work without a workaround. The Editor dont like the podlaunchers and some other Features i dont remember yet.

Try bf2 content only in the Editor.

Thats what i did. I tried both with bf2142 content (which is actually working on my main laptop) (and yeah i know that high poly models from 2142 doesnt work on editor so i removed them.

But the problem is that I tried BF2 only as well, and it doesnt work too. I also tried the clean install of BF2 and editor all again, and it didnt worked unfortunately

Is there any way to make it work?

The only things i remember from the old bf2 vanilla Editor was that you need Version 1.3? and the largehardwareadress fix for a more stable BF2 Editor.

But you unzipped the object_server and objects_client.zip to objects and you also installed the 1.5 patch on bf2?

Of course)
I'm a mapper with good experience )
So all basic things like extracting files, patching game, installing certain version of editor and etc. all of these has been done already. however it doesnt work somehow.
I have a feeling that it can be connected to hardware of the laptop that i mentioned earlier.

Is there any way out of this situation?

Thanks in advance =)

If you select the mod you working for, it starts loading and than crashes or he starts and crashs later?
Is there any redlines in the debug window?

Could you make a Clip for it so i can see how the Editor crashs?

I remember i had pProblems with the wantu.dds but thats longlongtime ago

Only hind i can give you is start your BF2 once to create a profile and change everything to your likings but i doubt that this the rootcause is of your Problem.

Your OS is win10?

Yeah i have win 10.
However as i mentioned earlier, on my other laptop (with win 10) editor works like charm.
i have no idea why this laptop doesnt work with editor =/

We know unknown dynamic option error. Enable 800x600 resolution for your GPU.

Omg, that worked =)
Thank you so much for your help my friend =)

and btw, for those who would experience the same problem, here how i did it (with the help of Suchar of course):
Go to your Intel Graphics command center, select Display, then at the resolution choices, select "Custom", and add 800x600 resolution. and apply the settings.


Thanks again for ur help =)
