Black Screen freeze after starting PR

Post by obZen »

Hello, everything was working fine yesterday, no changes made to my computer or BF2/PR, and today when I try to start PR, the dog tags show up, and then when the game should load it just goes to a black screen and stays on that indefinitely until I kill BF2.exe process.

BF2 vanilla runs fine.

Cheers.

possibly corrupted profile files

delete "My Documents\Battlefield 2" folder - this will get rid of corrupted files but clear all custom settings though

else reinstall bf2 + pr (probably faster than waiting for another reply :) )

I already deleted that folder, and don't really want to try reinstalling - that is the most frustrating thing about this game/mod. Seems with any problem the solution is reinstall.


My BF2 vanilla works perfectly, can join games and do whatever, but PR will not run, and like I said everything was fine yesterday.

I was playing iRacing prior to PR yesterday and left my Logitech Steering wheel plugged in, I think that may have been the culprit, as last night I tried it again several hours later (after unplugging the wheel after racing), PR worked.

Interesting that it was a problem with PR and not BF2, I did not have the wheel or any joysticks bound to any PR controls.
