Getting a black screen on PR load?

[glowjack177]

;1129976']Insurgency is epic win now for COFOR, I was playing till about 6am on the CIA server and we got 9 caches in about 1 hour just by using the UAV

Well now insurgents will have to play with teamwork (they were supose to but the best there ever was was individual squads doing their thing).
It's not that hard, as long as the cache is not visible from the air insurgents can hide from the UAV by walking close to buildings, taking cover when the UAV comes, or arrange a taxi service to ferry people from main or remote hideouts (thou it would be nice to build hideouts underground)

ON A SIDE NOTE SINCE I FAVORITED MY SERVERS I CAN ACESS MOST OF THEM FROM THE REGULAR BF2 FAVORITES PAGE

This could be a nice work around, can you play PR by selecting them? or alternativley, if we have server IPs can we just join them through vBF2??

Nice I got it working, I just used the old PR shortcut instead of the Project Reality 0874 shortcut and yes it is running version 0.87 with old shortcut. Hope this helps

For me it also takes ages before PR starts up, When I start up PR I first see a black screen for like half a min. and then it finally starts with the Blacksand studios thing. Then when I logged it in freezes.

Does the main menu freeze?

[J.Burton[EEF]]

It's working again for Fighter and I

Does the main menu freeze?

I get freeze on the main menu, no button's respond and windows task manager says BF2 isn't responding - probably waiting for the news ticker to get some data before it does anything else.

btw this xfire-launch fix is supposed to work: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f10-pr ... ost1129961

Nope, It did when i used to new shortcut though, make sure your security is allowing access.

You haven't tried refreshing enough. I didn't get any servers at first either but after the 10th attempt or so they finally showed up. Its the same in vBF2 sometimes. I wonder if its a new bug in v1.5 or something..?

[Forsaken0u812]

Okay, so I am still having problems starting BF2/PR.

I have Vista

I will Right click and run as admin like i always do, and it will Start to load. It will go to the black screen that you get when you begin the program, but after 3 seconds it Crashes back to desktop. Both my PR and BF2 are doing this.

I was playing okay last night, and then i got up and patched both BF2 and PR, now neither work. anyone know how to fix this?
