Title: FH Crashes whenever I open it.
Post by: Dragon22 on February 22, 2012, 05:27:55 am
Hiya, I return to the help thread once more. -3- Anywho, I downloaded a map my friend made and it worked fine, until I left to change my character. When I quit, it said, "Feral Heart.ex(??) Has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution." And it came up with nothing. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it, and it still doesn't work.

Check your particle folder for particles with the names _01 _02 and delete them.
or
Change the rendering mode inside the ogre.cfg and then try to start the game.

Ok, I deleted the files with _0 but it still doesn't work. And when the little box pops up where you change the rendering system it only has the option to choose one rendering system. It's the one that starts with like OpenGl or something like that.

What about the one with _01 in it? As far as I know they come both at the same time.
And when changing the rendering mode inside the ogre.cfg, you change it inside the ogre.cfg, not from the launch window.
C:\Feralheart, and look for the file called ogre and is a "cfg" file. Open that with notepad and then change the top row of the text to Direc3D9 after the equal symbol, save the text, then run the game.

I have neither of those problems. Everything is correct. No particles in the particles folder named _01 or _02, and it was already Direc3D9. Yet it still crashes. The map was big and took about an hour to download.. could that be it?

Not likely, more likely the map had files that were not installed properly into your game, or possibly even causing it to crash plain of.
Remove FH and everything inside the "C:\FeralHeart" folder, then install the game again and it should work, otherwise it's your settings and preferences causing the game to crash.

Okay, thank you Red, I finally see things that are obvious in retrospect. I'll try to redownload the map one last time, and if that doesn't work.. I'll back up my files and redownload FeralHeart. Problem solved for right now, I guess.
About the size of the map.. we're talking 183 MB big. One of my biggest map downloads ever. O-O
Edit: Ugh! I checked the ogre again and it keeps changing itself to OpenGL Rendering Subsystem! Oh well, since every other map I have works except for this one, I'm redownloading it now..
Another Edit: Redownloaded the file and it's still not working. I guess I have no choice but to redownload FH. I'll back up my files to another folder, but it's going to be a pain moving all my maps and presets. Screenshots alone will be a challenge o3o
Yet Another Edit: Okay. Backed up all of my important files. Time to uninstall and reinstall.
Final Edit: Okay Red. I did what you asked. It actually says Direc3D9 Rendering SubSystem. I added all my files back. Yet it says that FeralHeart is not responding whenever I try going back to that individual map, and it closes anyway. I get the feeling that it's my preferences.. let me attempt to fix it.
IT WORKS *-* THANK YOU
The Saga comes to a gripping end..
All I had to do was reinstall FeralHeart and redownload the file. A little laggy but it works either way. Thank you Jayfeather55 and Red

I don't think there were any _01 files, and I changed the rendering system like you said. But the popup window thing didn't have Direc3D9, only the OpenGL (?) one. It still crashes...

It posted that twice and I don't know where the delete button is. xD
Edit:: I found a PNG image that has _0 at the end, do I delete that?
Double Edit:: Ok, I just uninstalled my FH completely, including the folder. I needed to get rid of some of my maps anyway, and now it works! Thank you for your help!!
