Project Reality Forums

Hi guys, I have tried many other forums but with no joy :/, so i decided this was the best idea

So, here is my problem, Project Reality Multiplayer - Deployment and Coop, wont run Multiplayer, i can see the list, but when i click on the server of choice, then Deploy- Blank screen (Black) for 1 second, Then desktop. then i have to restart pr...

I decided to try SinglePlayer. Works fine

I decided to delete my account then make a new one. Nope
It makes an error sound. then goes to desktop, then 30 second blackscreen, then Login Screen. I really wanna play with my buddies at the =VG= Server.

Thank you in advance.

Whoever fixes this gets a cookie

turn on vBF2 first then go set everything up there, load a map in vBF2 and try PR afterwards
also empty your cache before you do it
another thing that would be nice is your system specs.

Sounds like a firewall problem to me. Try running PR with firewall temporarily disabled.

Please post your computer specs as well so we can help you more.

Core specs are CPU, RAM, graphics card, sound card (if available) and operating system.

Do what they said above and also, lower your video settings.

Here it is

Video Card = Geforce 210 series

2560MB RAM

OS = Win XP

Processor = AMD Athlon 5000 dual core

That all? and ive turned down my Graphics

I just chested my mods folder in BF2 - no pr... i recently uninstalled and reinstalled in hope of fixing it. maybe i didnt get it all? And, i tried what kara said. didnt work, and i cleared the cache. I remember i got a error. a friend said it was a login error. but i cant seem to find it. I will look into it after a nice hot shower

Error messages, many like them, BUT the first is at the very top, and there is one. buddy said it is a login error, like i said

I decided to delete my account then make a new one. Nope

If you haven't done this already, delete the complete "My Documents\Battlefield 2" this will clear all config files of BF2/PR. They will be reinitialized once you start BF2 anew. Note that all custom settings etc. will be lost and have to be redone.

Ill try it when im back up there. im at my other house for 2 weeks
