Something... odd about the textures on the start screen.
« on: November 04, 2014, 11:51:44 pm »
I would take a screenie, but I am a windows keyboard on a Mac computer, so I am unable too. :I
I will try to explain this the best I can...

When I open up the game, and it gets to the log in screen, the textures on the "boxes" are very odd. It looks like cracks. I know there is a texture I am missing. Not only do they looked "cracked" but bad quality. Pixels are very visible.
This isn't the only problem.
When I log in, the game crashes for no reason. There is no message popping up either. It just... closes.
The back round moves okay, and I don't play with the volume on, so I don't know about the music.

Anyway, is there a solution to this? I really don't wanna re-install the game, as I find it very difficult to find the items and Mass markings I used. :I


Edit: I tested the sound the music does not work.

Could you possibly download Fraps and use that to take the screenshot maybe? It would help us a lot more to understand the situation if we can actually see whats is going on here...

Or get Lightshot and you just press the application icon or something with FH open, then everything will be grey, just click and move the mouse, then click on the  cloud icon when you have done the rectangle right and it uploads instantly! blablabla

It seems like a graphics problem... are you using FH packed by Shell Prisoner for Macs? It's known that it has some glitches related to crashing etc etc. I suggest switching to OpenGL, I don't have a Mac so I don't know how is the FH directory in Mac (I'm assuming it's the same but without a few dlls and such, I honestly have no idea and I don't want to confuse people).

If OpenGL doesn't work, then go for the last step: WINE. Basically, you download this program and download the FH for Windows and then open WINE and search for the executable and it will run. I don't know how WINE works, since, like I said, I don't have a Mac neither a Linux. I'm sure WINE is more stable than the "official" FH for Mac, but I'm sure it will give some graphics problems still.

Anyways, good luck with that. If neither options works then I think you must get a Windows computer if you have the money and really want to play FH (and other non-Mac compatible programs).
