Still unable to play FH
« on: October 17, 2011, 06:17:53 pm »
Well its been since July(I believe) since I last played FH, and now the OGRE Exception has been occurring more often, considering I play on my dads user, hes the only admin required to play, and the graphics start to mess up and the errors I get from opening the start-up screen, are everything that has been covered to help it out. Just a question, whats a rendering system? and is it free? Like I upgraded my graphics card a week after FH stopped working, and it didn't seem to help. Hopefully someone can come by and give me more suggestions?
~Thanks^^

P.S; I'm not on the computer that used to let me run FH.

Did you try uninstalling the game, deleting the folder entirely, and reinstalling? You could also try going to options at the login screen, video, and switching the rendering subsystem to OpenGL or Direct3D9; whichever one it's not currently set to.

Hope this helps. If not you can PM me and I'll see if I can help you out. This might help as well, but I'd do this as LAST resort after trying all other options, especially if you aren't familiar with this sort of thing. http://feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=11278.0

Yes I have un-installed completely and deleted the folder hat held the information given. I possibly did this about 3-4 times O.o I didn't install it while it was installed already.
As for the link u have given me I shall look at it later, hopefully it clears things up since I can't play this other game(which is popular for wolves) and FH was really one of the kewl games I have ever played^^

I have no clue how you do that. is that the little drop down box? cause if so, then I can't switch it, unless there is somewhere in my control panel where I go. But yet again I have no idea.

Open up the game, and when you get to the login screen click options. Mouse over to the "video" tab and switch the rendering subsystem to the option that it's not currently set to. Then close the game and re-open.

Or if you can't change it in the game, try changing it manually with notepad. Go to the FeralHeart folder (C:\FeralHeart) and find the file named "ogre" . It's a cfg file, so open it up with Notepad. Once you open it, you should see something like this :


Code: [Select]
Render System=Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem
[Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem]
Allow NVPerfHUD=No
Anti aliasing=None
Floating-point mode=Fastest
Full Screen=No
Rendering Device=Intel(R) G41 Express Chipset (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM 1.1)
VSync=No
Video Mode=800 x 600 @ 32-bit colour
sRGB Gamma Conversion=No
[OpenGL Rendering Subsystem]
Colour Depth=32
Display Frequency=N/A
FSAA=0
Full Screen=No
RTT Preferred Mode=FBO
VSync=No
Video Mode=800 x 600
sRGB Gamma Conversion=No

Change the rendering system (first line) to either OpenGL or Direct3D9, vice versa. As you can see, I'm currently using Direct3D9 as my rendering system.

A render system is just what your computer uses to process graphics in games such as FeralHeart, to put it simple. xD

its not the login screen that's the problem...when I first clikc on the icon, it will ask how I want the screen resolution, rendering system, etc. I can't access the log-in page from there, and literally gives me an error, but I shall try your suggestions, hopefully it works^^
