Title: Game Freezes on Startup (Part 2)
Post by: SisiSocks on May 18, 2020, 11:49:01 pm

Game started doing the same thing as before. I've tried to uninstall, reinstall. It worked for a short period of time and then started the same thing. I've redownloaded the patch and replaced it in the folder because it worked a few other times but now it won't fix it.

I'm tired of redownloading the game over and over and having to reinstall markings/items/maps/and presets. Any suggestions?

Update: So I just uninstalled and reinstalled again and still freezes up upon starup. Someone please help. None of my normal fixes work anymore ;_;

When it freezes do you click the screen immediately or anything?

As soon as the game instead loads to the login screen, everything including the pointer freezers up. No issues exiting out of the game. There's no "not responding" tabs. Just straight frozen.

It doesn't turn white after a while and say that it has stopped working? Often times the game does freeze and it takes just waiting it out before it'll work.

You're opening Feral Heart by Direct3D9 or OpenGL?

Still having this issue. Also FH will randomly just close itself now. No "not responding" messages of any sort. Just completely exits out as if I closed it myself.

I'm not sure what kind of problem this is, but I do know that if you look in your FH folder, there is a text document called "FH" and it was show the errors on your game. Sometimes I don't understand what some of the errors are but maybe it'll tell you what the problem is? Another thing I have to say is, if you choose to redownload again, make sure to delete the game in your recycle bin just so nothing is still connected to your computer..If that makes sense. I hope this helps!

Mine says the same but still runs, i'm not sure what the issue is..Another thing i'd say is make sure there are no duplicates of particle files but it'd say that in the FH text document. However, you did redownload your game. It could be something with your computer.

I know that you'll hate this idea, but have you tried reinstalling and then trying it without the items/maps/markings/other mods? There could be something in there that is messing with it.

Also, if you Don't mind my asking, what is the specs of the computer you use? Sometimes the game can be quite taxing on a computer. You could always try turning off water reflection, playing in windowed mode, etc..
