Game Help / Re: FH Closes Itself
« on: December 20, 2020, 04:35:52 pm »
I had this issue as well at some point. How I fixed my issue is I started with a fresh download of FH and added back in the mods I had one by one (checking to see it if would crash with each one). Funnily enough it wasn't the mods but had to do with a bad preset file I had downloaded from someone. Have you downloaded any presets from anyone? If not, does this crashing happen with a completely fresh install of the game, nothing whatsoever added to it?

I have had a preset in the past, a single one. And it came from a trusted friend. It doesn't seem to make a difference if I'm playing on the preset character or not. That being said, I did a completely fresh install (uninstalled the game, removed the FH folder from my computer, etc.) The ONLY thing I added to the NEW folder was the FH.exe that needs to be put in for the update.
I then proceeded to launch FH 3 times, and let it sit at the title screen. It closed itself all 3 times. The third time, out of curiosity, I pulled up the clock on my phone and had it display the time down to the second.
At approximately 9:27.09, the Title screen loaded in. At about 9:28.09, the game closed itself. Exactly a minute of running, and the game shut itself down. I do not have any lingering files from the last download, I haven't added any mods. I am running the game on OpenGL. I didn't even load into character select. I just left it on the title screen.

Fh.txt reads as follows:

Capabilities:: VertexProgram: YES
Capabilities:: FragmentProgram: YES
Sound:: Initialized: YES
ERROR::SaveFile:loadz: WaterMillGates.cfg failed!

"Make sure to double check your media > particles folder.
If there are any files with _0 or _1, delete them and try again."

"Try deleting DirectX and then reinstalling it"
Click here for the DirectX download


No duplicate particles showing. I'm running the game in Open GL, would DirectX affect that even if I'm not running it that way?

Have you installed any mods ealier? Like animations, modificated markings, etc.?

I have Legendary markings and items, as well as a domestic cat tail and ears mod, but they're all up to date for the current release of FH (To the best of my knowledge, I used links provided by an active RP i am a part of, and they don't seem to be giving anyone else problems), and the ears and tail mod were added later on down the line, after the crashing already started.

Game Help / FH Closes Itself
« on: December 13, 2020, 10:35:14 pm »
Once again back to ask for further assistance with my ever unstable game.
I've had this problem since redownloading the game. I will open the game, log in, and at random points the game just. Closes itself. It doesn't pop up with FH.exe has stopped working or any other messages or prompts, or offer anything. It just closes itself out of the blue. There is no rhyme or reason. It happens on the title page, in character select, in private maps, in public maps, just, at random. I'm growing ever more frustrated with the instability of the game unfortunately. I just want to be able to log in without it closing every 5 minutes. Please help.

P.S.
FH.txt reads as follows after the most recent close:

Capabilities:: VertexProgram: YES
Capabilities:: FragmentProgram: YES
Sound:: Initialized: YES
ERROR::SaveFile:loadz: WaterMillGates.cfg failed!
ERROR::SaveFile:loadz: fhPodiumGates.cfg failed!
ERROR::SaveFile:loadz: fhPodiumWater.cfg failed!

I was already in the character select page, it loaded into that just fine. It just closed itself after a moment.

After Much fighting, one of my friends managed to help me brute force FH into running and it seems we are all smooth sailing from here. This thread may be locked or removed if needed!

Would you have any recommendations as to which staff member I should contact. In all my years playing the game I've never really interacted with anyone, and I'm not sure what level staff would even be able to help from mod to global mod to admin.
Thanks in advance!

Issue what you described looks like doublet particle files, but if you couldn't even enter game, I don't think it's possible...
So firstly, make sure you installed patch correctly (I know, you did it many times, but... just review it.) - https://feral-heart.com/smf/index.php?topic=68059.0

About particles - go into FH folder > media > particles and look are there any files ended with _0, _1, _2, etc. If there are, delete them and run game again.

If there aren't any double particles, I think you should open FH.log/FH.txt file inside main FH folder and tell here what it says.
I didn't see any duplicate Particles, so I opened the FH.txt and this is what it said:

Capabilities:: VertexProgram: YES
Capabilities:: FragmentProgram: YES
Sound:: Initialized: YES
ERROR::SaveFile:loadz: WaterMillGates.cfg failed!

Thanks for the help

Game Help / Having Problems Logging in In game
« on: November 28, 2020, 05:29:49 am »
I redownloaded the game this evening after being gone for around a year or so, and have had. A handful of problems.
Namely, I can't connect to the Front server at all. I have updated the .exe, and I am using the log in tab, but it doesn't connect at all. I can't get past the log in screen.
I have reinstalled the game 3 times, and updated the .exe every time.
I also notice that the game tends to close itself after a while. Not crashing exactly, there's no error message or anything it just. Closes without any explanation. It might be my firewall, but I have no idea.
Thanks in Advance.

Site/Forum Help / Can't Change Password
« on: November 28, 2020, 05:26:15 am »
So, my Account is. Very Old. Incredibly old. It is tied to an email that I can no longer access. Clearly, I can log in fine because I know the password. But I would like to change my password to make my account more secure, and cannot. Can anyone on the staff help me maybe tie it to a new email so I can properly reset my password or do I just need to make a whole new forum account?
Thanks in Advance.

Game Help / Re: Clear Interface Windows?
« on: June 10, 2016, 07:50:55 pm »
After trying to reinstall once, it still didn't work but I think it was a glitch from some old files that had been saved when I last got my computer repaired. It's all cleaned up after the second reinstall now, thanks! ^^

Game Help / Clear Interface Windows?
« on: June 10, 2016, 07:32:23 pm »
So, I downloaded the new game last night to explore it with some friends and I think something in the files may have messed up a bit because all of the interface windows except for the update window are completely clear as shown below:



I'm not entirely sure I can fix it and I was initially going to just try and change it with some sort of a mod, but I'd rather not mess with my files beyond what I know how to do. If anybody knows how to fix this, that'd be a lot of help! Thanks!
