Hm, strange. Have you tried reinstalling the game at all? Make sure to save all of your files in a separate folder in your documents if you do. I'll keep digging to help find a solution in the mean time.

Would saving the maps I was working on in a seperate file and then when I reinstall FH and put the files back, nothing is going t disappear? Or will I have to restart everything???

I remember that before this major update (neq maps, etc.) creating maps was easier and no such big problems (like right now) didn't happen..

The same thing is happening...... *Sigh*

My PC isn't broken or anything for it to act up this way... But I don't want to play a game that doesn't allow you to come back online after you create a map......  :-\

I'm not good with computers too much, but how do I do the opposite of the highlighted words?

Apologies for the double post but this may help further with changing your rendering system!

The absolute first thing you want to try is to change the rendering mode for the game. There's different rendering modes you can pick from, usually OpenGL and Direct3D9. This decides which way your graphic card should process the game. This one is at standard set to OpenGL, so we'd want to set it to Direct3D9.

There are two ways you can change this setting.

How to fix it!
Either you start the game, go into the Options menu (can be accessed by pressing the Escape key on your computer), click the Video tab, and then change the rendering subsystem and restart the game.

Sometimes you aren't able to even enter the game, and all you can hear is the menu music, or it just crashes directly after launch. Those who experience this can enter the Feralheart folder located in C:\FeralHeart at standard, find the file called "Ogre.cfg" and open it with Notepad.

This file works just as the ingame options menu, but instead of buttons and sliders, there's text.

What we're interested in is the top row


Set the top row text so it is just like in the picture with the text
Quote from:
Render System=Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem

Save the file, and close it. Next time you run the game it should boot with the new settings you applied. You can also change your Rendering system by setting it to OpenGl instead of Direct3D9.

Let us know how you go!

Oh, thank you for explaining this!!!

So I did this, tried to open the game in different ways, but it still crashes after launching it....

I'll try to restart my PC then.

I'm not an expert on map making, but from my experience seeing this kind of thing happen here on the forums, I've noticed it may be caused by a few things.

- As Notorious has already covered (I was typing this before they replied), you may have duplicate particles in your particles folder.

Head into your FH > Media > Particles/Objects and make sure you don't have any files with _1 etc added to them.
Duplicate particles and others can cause the game to crash.

- Make sure that your map is 513x513. Also make sure that your heightmap is in greyscale.
- Objects can cause your game to crash as well if you have a bunch of them. It all depends on what your PC can handle, though.
- A file may be corrupted, and there's a possibility that you'll have to check them all to find this out, if none of the issues above is what is causing your game to crash.
- You may have to reinstall if none of these issues is what's the matter, just save all of your map files in another folder on your PC.

I hope some of these are helpful with the issue that you're experiencing, let us know if not! <3

This problem happens after I finish one of the maps and export it to further upload it on the internet afterwards (mediafire), other than that, I know how to create and make maps, I'm an old member joining in with another account because I completely forgot all of my previous information of my older account (haven't been on FH for years).

About the files having _1 or _2, the only ones I find are in the particles folder: water_0.particle water_1.particle

But since I haven't installed anything into the game itself after exporting the map (by installing anything into the game, I mean like different meshes, etc.).

You should try changing your rendering system. To do so, go to your main FeralHeart folder and scroll down until you see a .cfg file called "ogre". From there, you open up the notepad and it should say something like this.


Change the highlighted words to its opposite.

If that doesn't solve your problem, check if you have duplicated particles. The particles folder should be found in FeralHeart > media > particles. In addition, they usually end with _0, _1, and so on.

As a last resort, you should restart your computer. Shut it down and power it back up. After that, check if FH will run without interruptions.


I'm not good with computers too much, but how do I do the opposite of the highlighted words?

So, this has happened FOR THE SECOND time in a row.


I create a map, export it, then when I try to play the game, the game FREAKING crashes on me without even loading up to the lion interface that shows up when you open the game.

I didn't do anything to the game files itself that would cause this thing to happen. And yes, I tried to open the game from the FeralHeart folder and YES, I did try to open it with 'Run as Administrator', STILL NOTHING.

I'm really frustrated by this because I really want to finish this map project I am on, but if this keeps on happening, I won't be able to....

If this is a valid problem in the game for others too, can you PLEASE freaking fix it? It's really annoying, frustrating and time wasting... -.-

Thanks......
