Yeah.. so I can log in, but whenever I try to go on the actual server, the screen turns white and says "Feralheart.exe has stopped working". I've tried switching to OpenGL, that just made it crash at the start. I checked everywhere for double files. I uninstallled then re-installed. Would someone help me? 3:

If you uninstalled make sure that you also deleted the Feral Heart folder before reinstalling also try messing around with your video settings a little more:
Still try switching between different rendering subsystems again: OpenGL & Direct3D9 after the fresh reinstall
but also turn your
Anti Aliasing to none
Water Reflection to off
View Distance to 0
Try that and tell me how things work out
-
Tried it, it's still not working.
-
Hmm sorry to hear it didn't work. Was the game ever working fine at some point for you? Or did you just download it and it never works? When exactly did the crashing start? You can always try messaging one of the mods for help if no better suggestions come.
Maybe try running the game as an admin too if you aren't already and updating your graphics driver :-\
-
Yeah, I used to play FH a lot and thought I'd download it again. The crashing started just yesterday when I downloaded it.
-
Hmm this sometimes happen to others. So when you log in it should say Character Reset,so click. :)

As Thrillex said you can refer down below:
Failed to connect to front server is another funky message you might get. Most of the time you get this either when your internet is down or the server is down completely. It can also be that your firewall or any other security software is preventing FeralHeart from accessing the internet. If it's the server and not your internet it should be sorted shortly and be back up and running, if it will be down for longer times the staff will let you know.
Is the computer allowing FeralHeart to connect to the internet?
Games like these needs to be able to connect to the internet, but sometimes windows doesn't know if the game/application can be trusted or it just skips adding the game to exceptions. If you aren't able to log on the game, this might be your issue.
Open up your control panel located in the start menu. Depending on which Operating system you use, and which layout it might look differently. But Windows firewall should be in the category "security" or just find the text "Windows firewall" or "Allow a program through windows firewall". This should take you to the correct place.
Once there you'll get a new window with a list of programs. Try to locate FeralHeart.exe in there and add it to exceptions by marking the checkbox. If you can't find it, and the game to the list by yourself by pressing add program.
If you don't understand how to do this still, ask someone else to do this for you.
Sometimes there might be something else blocking the program from accessing the internet. A good example of these are some Antivirus programs. This can vary a lot as well. But check up if by any chance your virus program might be blocking feralheart. And just not only by clicking the icon in the corner sayings "Nope!". Look in the advanced menus and preferences first. Only you can check this.
How's your internet connection?
Sometimes the internet connection of the users trying to play the game might be weak. This can cause you to not being able to connect or staying online for a longer time, many people might start blaming the game or server for this when it in fact might be themselves.
Here's a few things you can check:
1. Are you even connected to the internet right now?
2. Are you running any downloading/streaming programs?
3. Are there any other computers/devices using the same internet?
4. Are you currently using a wireless connection, if so, are you getting good signal?
Sometimes the internet connection can time out for various reasons and then jump back on again, so be sure to try a few times first.
Programs in the background
Downloading things or running streaming programs eats your bandwidth, and this bandwidth is needed in order to play the game, especially if you're using slower speeds. You can start by shutting off things like downloading programs and internet browsers. Maybe even IM programs such as MSN and AIM and try to play again.
Turn off extra devices
If you got more than 1 computer or other devices also using the internet, try turning them off if they're not in use. This will give you more bandwidth to spare.
On a wireless connection?
If you're using a laptop you might be using a wireless internet connection. These can sometimes loose their signal to the internet source. So try placing yourself closer to your modem, this might give you a stronger signal.
These things should solve the most connection problems!

Are you still getting the "failed to connect to front server" message? If you have tried all the tips listed above and still continue to get that message you can always private message one of the mods about it. Maybe they can provide you with better advice. You can contact one of them from here:
