OK,
Display Information
-------------------
Display Device(s):
Display Mode(s):
Driver Version: 10.18.10.3379
When there is no display device listed, it's usually a problem with the video drivers.
You're using old drivers, so try updating them , you should do so even without PR in mind:

INstall, reboot, go to PRlauncher-Support-Copy to clipboard and paste again, hopefully PRlauncher will be able to identify your display with the new drivers.

Hi Blade,

There is a big "Support" button under the play button on the PRLauncher main screen.
click it, then click copy to clipboard button...

Im still trying to figure out what I must have changed in my computer that is causing these problems, likely suspect is the mother board that was new back in 2014 or the win7 to win8 upgrade key that I used. All I know is I cant wait to play PR again. :)

I've had the same problem Devorst has but this is my first time trying to play Project Reality so I don't have old files I could use. Anyone know another way to fix the display problem?

Edit:
Fixed the display problem by putting the files from the default folder into the 0001 folder then deleted the server settings that I copied in. Problem is now I get the 1103 error

'[R-COM wrote:LITOralis.nMd;2011117']Here is a copy of my Documents\ProjectReality\Profiles\Default folder.

rename your Default directory to Default.old or something similar.
Then copy mine into place.

It is set to 1920x1080 60Hz in the video.con file. Manually edit that (in Notepad) if you have a different resolution.
