Problems with the BF1942 mod 'Forgotten Hope'

Jedimushroom · 02-16-2007, 10:35 AM

Now, I know an admin will probably move this to off - topic, but I do not think it is off topic, just not on this topic.

I hope no-one bans me or flames this, but I figured that there would be forgotten hope players here and the FH forums are completely inactive, also, I'm just plain lazy

So I will post here what I posted there (a day ago with still no reply), I have tried searching EVERYWHERE for a solution to this and it just really annoys me.

Well, here goes:

I have previously installed forgotten hope on a better computer than this one and it worked fine.

I installed bf1942 deluxe (with road to rome, SWoWW2 and battlecraft 1942), I then installed 1.6, then 1.61 and then the three parts of the FH install, I have repeated this process many times (the first time I did not select to install Punkbuster so I had to completely re install).

When I try to play Forgotten Hope with Punkbuster on as soon as I connect to a server or as soon as I spawn my game crashes to the desktop, a small window with 'error....' appears at the top left of my screen but then disappears with an error sound.

However, when I deselect Punkbuster on the menu screen I can connect to servers (though only those with Punkbuster not installed) fine. When I play these same servers with Punkbuster on the same crash happens.

I have tried numerous Punkbuster related downloads, I have tried turning off conflicting programs and I have tried toning down my settings and nothing works

The funny thing is that this is not a problem on normal 1942, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON????

SOMEBODY HELP!!!

Please do not just flame this, I know this looks n00bish but I really want somebody to give me an answer, as I said, feel free to move or delete.

Not to be an ass, but isn't that the very definition of off-topic?

oh, yeah, point.

But no-one would read it if it went there, on second thoughts, someone move this please.

Try the FH forums?

I did, but as I stated, they are basically dead, thought I might get a response here
