Disabling PR shaders

[arn354]

Rawkk's got a problem and it's not as simple as you might think. I'm trying to help him over PM.
Besides, the game he legally bought is not working, so he's got the right to be pissed off.

Thats why i asked him to give as much informations as possible instead of just telling that something sucks.

The version of BF2 he is referring is working fine here - thats why i need more informations, adequate informations - each time he tries - not just fragments.

The downloadable BF2 Complete Collection - works as a normal installation here - instead of checking the present DVD it just checks a running Downloader and legit account. You can use all link-options as normal. You can use pr.exe to start pr normally.

Alright, last night i got also kicked for the shader problem. Although i am very sure i have them enabled .

PB kick message:

MD5Tool mismatch:
mods\bf2\ and then some file with .con at the end (len =204

I am not sure what the file is called maybe shaders.con or so (if that
exists)...

My shortcut looks like this:


Target:
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe" +modPath mods/pr +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +widescreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050

Start In:
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2"

Never really had problems with PB before

[General_J0k3r]

did you do a manual update? which server?

[Mora]

PB updated i don't know witch server it was anymore maybe T&T or TCC

[General_J0k3r]

i suspect you have the gamelogicinit.con problem. check in this thread, deadfast has posted his file somewhere.

[Rawkk]

Did deadfast post a fix already? He fixed my problem but afaik he was waiting to be sure It worked before posting the fix

So anyone with the same problem as me should be sorted out soon enough.

[Deadfast]

@Rawkk: That's not the same problem as you had (besides, check your PM)


@Joker: Yep, I did post a file, I think it was in the help board. But it was the gamelogicinit.con located in mods\pr.


@Mora: Try to get the name. There are multiple .con files in mods\bf2 so it's hard to tell which might be acting up.


I hate to say it's weird how many people are having problems with corrupted files BTW...

Hopefully you can weed out these people and slap and big fat SHAME ON YOU sticker on then

Many people are having the problem that the shaders don't work with a normal install.

My path looks like this:

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\pr.exe" +modPath mods/pr +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +widescreen 1 +szx 1440 +szy 900

The shaders work, but I get kicked by PB for shader issues.

As said before, that's most likely a corrupt BF2 install, reinstall BF2 patch 1.41
