Object reference not set to an instance of an object

[Fizzyfrenzy2]

Finally managed to download PR on the fourth attempt due to my dodgy internet. However, after installing it I clicked on the PR launcher and got a critical error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
I checked the PR launcher log and I got this:


Critical Error: An unhandled exception has occured. Details are as follows:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Further details can be found in the following file:

[url]C:\Program Files (x86)\Project Reality\Project Reality BF2\mods\pr\bin\PRLauncher.log[/url]

Please report this error to the Project Reality Team, and include the log file in your report.

I haven't a clue on how to sort this out since I don't know too much about computers but if someone could provide some suggestions I would be grateful.

do you have latest direct x?
latest windows updates?

what is your OS?

go to documents
rename projectreality to projectrealityOLD
BEFORE running the launcher, go to root directory and run prbf2.exe
it'll tell you to use the launcher then

[Fizzyfrenzy2]

I've managed to get the launcher to run but I have run into another problem. The launcher doesn't save my display mode choice even if I have clicked apply.

open launcher>support copy paste here

this is bad

[Fizzyfrenzy2]

Well I'm running on a laptop with an apu and I've got the laptop connected to another monitor that's 1920x1080.
My drivers are up to date as is windows

[DC_K]

open video.con located in documents/projectreality/profiles/0001

find

VideoSettings.setResolution

set it to:

VideoSettings.setResolution 1920x1080@60Hz

save

[Fizzyfrenzy2]

I don't have that. Only file in 0001 is "profile"

I do have a video.con file in the default folder, worth changing that instead?

[DC_K]

no, as it won't change anything

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a0qm9ybeg3kl ... mszAa?dl=0

download any file you dont have in your profiles and change the video.con as i instructed above and let me know how that goes

[Fizzyfrenzy2]

Finally it works
I shall play some tomorrow and will let you know if I encounter any other problems.

Thank you very much for your help I appreciate it a lot.

no problem! have fun!
