I wish I could have this bug. I hate not being able to see.

[jOHNNYdOUBE]

Use BF2 cleaner, just google it.

Strange, I've been having this on and off now, though without the coughing and sound effects when I'm not getting the Black and White, too. Is it at all possible that Epipens can heal you above the black and white zone randomly? Because I also think its taken less time to heal when I don't get it. Odd...

[Maniac302]

I've noticed that the pens are a lot more effective now, I often only have to use one, that was a rare occurrence in .8. Could this possibly be related, or just coincidental?

[para_hjs]

mine started doing it and i dont think iv dwnloaded any drivers in ages :/

What drivers and what cards have the BETA-testers used?

[ReaperMAC]

It's happening occasionally for me too when I get revived. Maybe it is because the game isn't using the pr.exe? I dunno, will look into it.

I installed on my vista laptop yesterday, I get the old BF2 gas attack effect....on top of the red stuff.

Everyone please post your comp specs here who does have this problem.

This occurs EVERY single time I am revived, I have not got the black&white vision once yet in v0.85

Computer:
AMD 5600+
BFG 8800GT 512mb (Driver version 180.48 )
2gb OCZ DDR2
Windows XP with SP2

[Rudd]

intel core duo, 3.2Ghz
256mb nvidia 6800
4Gb RAM
Windows XP - SP2

edit, probably better if we just edit it in to our posts

[McBumLuv]

Ok, mine is:

2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac
2GB 800MHz DDR2 SDRAM
ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT with 128MB memory
Bootcamp running Windows XP 32 bit with SP 2

EDIT, I've only had this occur in 0.85, and it's only been about half of the time, do the modified BF2 shaders have an impact on this?

[nooomy]

i got this bug too

[Psyrus]

I've had this bug since mid-way through 0.809.

Although I do get this bug...the completely black screen (just before death/just after resuscitation) is infinitely more annoying...my specs are...

- evga 780i mobo
- intel Q9450 quadcore cpu @ 3.2
- 8gb dominator ram @ 1066
- ATI 2gb 4870x2 gpu
- vista64

I too no longer have this effect since 0.85 and I want it back, found it cool. The bloody edges overlay is working though.



Some interesting details about my problem :



FH2 is using a similar overlay effect when you're bleeding to death, only the edges of the screen turn black and white. Anyway, they made a modded .exe to achieve this just like PR used to.

I remember when first installing FH2 by the end of 2007, it corrupted all my mods menus (incl. vanilla, they all turned into sepia) and replaced PR's effect in 0.7.
After that, I had to completely reinstall BF2 + mods to recover PR's effect and took the precaution to install FH2 on a separate clean-BF2 folder.

Worked ok for both, had it working alright in 0.8.

Early this January, after updating my quarantined FH2 to 2.15 I noticed that their effect wasnt working anymore
I installed FH2 in my main BF2 folder again for harddrive space reasons and still got no effect on their part.
Then, 0.85 came out, I installed it alongside FH2 2.15 and all the rest and here I am, seeing very well when being revived every time.



If anyone would be so kind or desperate as to do a clean BF2 reinstall + PR 0.85 only and tell us if it works for him, it'd be enlightening.


I'll add that no matter what, FH2 has always been CTD'ing a lot. PR was stable for me until this 0.85 where I happen to CTD mostly during map changes and after some explosions.

[McBumLuv]

I've had this problem and haven't installed FH 2 ever, so that's probably not it.
