Title: An issue with starting Feral Heart!
Post by: RottenLemon on December 17, 2016, 02:12:41 pm
Hello, forum!

My friend, shadowpatroler, cannot play Feral heart. Every time she goes to open it, it closes instantly and pops up the "Feralheart.exe is not responding"

every time.

She really needs help and it would be nice if someone could help? Thanks!

 In your particles folder, check for any duplicates (anything ending with _0 or _1), if there is any, delete them.

1.- uninstall feralheart (just backup your stuff like maps, objects and screenies),
2.- Completly Delete the game folder "FeralHeart" who is located at Computer -> C:\
3.- Reinstall the game.

Try running the game as administrator as well, and double check to make sure the heightmap for your map is in grayscale.

Hopefully some of this will help!

She tried them but none seem to work.

This isn't a whole lot to go on, it'd help us help you if we knew what happened just before this problem started up but the following might help...

As mentioned before by Shadowtooth, look in FeralHeart > media > particles and make sure none of them have _# at the end of their name as that seems to crash the game right after opening it.

If it's not that it could be something else like missing/corrupted files. This would mean you'd probably need to reinstall the game to make sure everything is where it should be.

If it's not either of the above, then it might be a simple matter of switching from using Direct3D9 to using OpenGL or the other way around which can be done by going to FeralHeart > Ogre.cfg (This can be opened with Notepad.) and changing it at the top where it says Render System.

If it isn't any of those then hopefully someone else can help you out better than I. =)

Sometimes too much data on your computer can keep FH from opening, check to see if you've downloaded anything really big lately that would take up a lot of space.

Also, make sure your firewall or virus protection system such as Norton isn't blocking FH.

You could also try running the program as administrator by right clicking the FH icon and clicking "Run as administrator"
