Pr startup problem

retrety · 06-02-2008, 05:40 PM

Hello
whenever i try to open the PR mod shortcut it goes to a black screen and then an error message pops up that says that it is unable to open the staticmesh shaders followed by a location that has something about xmods involved. I had the game working but i had to reinstall Battlefield 2 because of connection problems associated with the expansion packs. any help would be greatly appreciated.

How did you install it?

it goes like this...
Install battlefield 2
Install BF2_PATCH_1.41
Install PR_CORE_FILES
Install PR LEVEL_FILES

when you deviate that order you get those types of errors, and things like the servers coming up in red (which means it is the wrong version)
Just delete and reinsall in that order. before you do any of that though you might want to check your command line ("target") in the shortcut properties. should be somthing like...
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\pr.exe"

Did you try to reinstall the 1.41 patch?

After each individual install.
Restart each and every time.
Its a windows thing.

This exact error occured with me when trying to start PR, and when I went to the location it said it could not read files from there was nothing there.
