Summer MOTS Nominations are here!
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.If the server is up though for a longer time, and you're still having issues to connect, you should follow the tips mentioned in the post "Unable to log on/go online" (posted below) and if that fails to work. Contact those responsible for your internet or maybe someone that knows more and are able to help you.
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 backgroundDownloading 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 devicesIf 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!
ugh guys x.x its not the internet connection, it has full bars and is connnected...
How to Change Your Rendering System~Windows 7 and 8~Method number 1~First, go into C: > Feralheart. If you look at the FH main folder, you will see a flie called:'orge.cfg'Click it, and open it with 'NOTEPAD'.Look at the first two lines in the orge.cfg file. That is where you change your rendering system.If you followed everything that was typed and the instructions in the pictures, you should have successfully switched your rendering system.Method number 2~Turn on FH!On the main screen, you will see this:Click options, and go to video. Click 'Rendering System.'Then just simply switch your rendering system.Note that sometimes method 2 doesn't awlways work- That's why I listed the orge.cfg file first. ^^Good luck! Hope this helped those who don't know how to change their rendering system!~
Games not opening up? Try this easy way! Windows 7-8/Vista/XPTry this for both FeralHeart and your other games that will not open, or simply crash at the start:Right click the game icon on your desktop and select "Properties"then click on "Compatibility and follow the instructions in the image above.When you reach the dropdown box, select the format you are using~Finally, click "Apply" then "OK". Also, For FeralHeart (If the game won't open) open up your main FeralHeart Folderand open up a config file named "ogre" in notepad (or any other word document) and replace it with this:Render System=Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem[Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem]Allow NVPerfHUD=NoFSAA=0Floating-point mode=FastestFull Screen=NoRendering Device=Monitor-1-AMD Radeon HD 7700 SeriesResource Creation Policy=Create on all devicesVSync=NoVSync Interval=1Video Mode=1280 x 800 @ 32-bit coloursRGB Gamma Conversion=No[OpenGL Rendering Subsystem]Colour Depth=32Display Frequency=N/AFSAA=0Full Screen=NoRTT Preferred Mode=FBOVSync=NoVSync Interval=1Video Mode=800 x 600sRGB Gamma Conversion=NoThen save and relaunch the game! (If nothing takes affect, try restartingyour computer too.) However, if FeralHeart DOES open and it leads onto the title screenthen go to Options\Video\Rendering Subsystem\Direct3D9 then relaunch the game~
Im having pretty much the same prob, except I can log onto the forum and not the game. Sorry I cant help!
