Startup Problems

Post by Odyssey23 »

When I clicked the Project Reality shortcut on my desktop it told me I had to press Alt+F4 and reassign (I think?) my shortcuts, and then when I went into the mods folder and clicked pr.exe, it told me that bf2.exe did not exist and I needed to check my folder pathway or something. Has this ever happened to any of you? What do I do?

I had the same problem with 0.75; just right click on the desktop icon, select 'Run as Administrator' and then it will run it as pr.exe.

HangMan: BF2 Editor, it has very strict limitations memory wise, and crashes all the time. Its like a girl. Treat it with respect and take it slow and you'll get places. Rush and get ahead of yourself and it will turn around and punch you in the mouth

Hi,

I am experiencing the same problems as Odyssys23 describes. The whole problem comes down to the different working directories...

I have followed this threadto solve the problem. But nothing helps.

The last thing I did is to run the mod by double clicking PR.EXE. Now I got the message that BF2.EXE could not be found and that I should check my working directory.

Then I copied BF2.EXE into the same folder where PR.EXE can be found. Double clicked PR.EXE again and got the error that MEMORY.DLL could not be found.

So something went wrong during install while configuring the working directories.

Does somebody know if there is a file where you can check and / or change the working directories?

*Update*

It appears that I can run the mod when I start it from within Battlefield it self (Via Community).
