Issues with game after latest patch! Need help
« on: May 31, 2017, 09:02:37 pm »
Ok, so first of all what is up with FH as of late? Whenever I try to log in on the web-log-in page that connects you to the server so you can play, a very harmful ad pops up that takes control of your browser, and forces you to click on the ad if you want to close the tab and or browser. The only way to bypass this is by force-quitting the browser through the computers task-manager. (This ad is somehow able to bypass Ad-block and pop up anyway)

Also, for some reason the game no longer exports my presets. I can see them just fine in the creative den, but when I try to export them the box that says prest exported as username_#.fhp does not show up. I exit to check if the fhp. file has appeared in the presets folder (no not the my_presets one), and its not there. I'm a seasoned preset maker and I have never had this issue before. I haven't played FH for a couple of years, and just recently installed it on my new laptop (windows 10 os). Before you ask, yes I have typed my username into the log-in box at the start-page of the game before going into the preset maker to export. Yes all my preset file names match the preset material. It shows up without issue in the creative den, but since I can't export making presets for others becomes kinda useless. (I am also running FH in compability mode, so no its not that).

Also, game crashes whenever I try to take screenshots. Doesn't matter if I use default button, or change to a different button.

Has anyone experienced the same?

The exporting problem has happened to me, but it fixed itself soon after it started. How long has the problem been going on for?

My presets.

Good things take time, so I'll take an eternity and create something so good that the human brain can't handle the sheer goodness of it.

You should be able to exit right out of the ads on the red "x" button on the top right corner. Are you saying this doesn't work, and is it every ad that you're having to force quit out of?

With your preset problem, is the game telling you "failed to export preset" or is the .fhp file simply not showing up in your "presets" folder?

And the screenshots, whenever you press the "prt sc" button, the game freezes itself for a few seconds, and if the game is already slow or laggy then this could simply be too much for your computer to handle. Try lowering your view distance, turning off nametags, or turning off water reflection for your screenshots

Adding a little bit to what Kiki said here;
You can drag the ad tab down at it will become it's own window, this way you don't have to close all your tabs down.
