Movin' this thread to the Game Help child board.

I also do not think it's the server that's the problem, ma'am. Have ye' downloaded any recent modifications to the game?
If nid, ye' could try switchin' yer renderin' system.


How to Change Your Rendering System
Windows 7 and 8



Method number 1
First, go into C:\Feralheart. If you look at Feralheart's main folder, you will see a file called "ogre." This file is a .cfg file, which means people can read an edit it with simple text.
Click it, and open it with "NOTEPAD" when it asks.

Look at the first two lines in the ogre.cfg file. That is where you change your rendering system. You can basically ignore everything else listed there!

On my image, my first two lines are:

Render System=Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem
[Direct3D9 Rendering Subsystem]


To change my rendering system, I'll need to change it to:

Render System=OpenGL Rendering Subsystem
[OpenGL Rendering Subsystem]


And vise versa! Simple as that. ^^


Method number 2
Turn on Feralheart.
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 always work- That's why I listed the ogre.cfg file first. ^^ Good luck! Hope this helped those who don't know how to change their rendering system.

It'd also be good to make sure yer computer device is even compatible with FeralHeart installed as there have been occurrences when devices are unable to properly host the game.
