Topic: Game crashs when I click on [Multiplayer] or [Not supported]

Hey all, first post on the forums. Shame it had to be about a problem...

Anyway, I just added First Strike to my list of Mods for BF 2142. Very excited to play it, I went straight to [Multiplayer], game crashed as soon as I clicked on it. Same happens with single player, if that is any help.

Re: Game crashs when I click on [Multiplayer] or [Not supported]

That's very odd...

First let's get a few things checked...

You are starting with the FS launcher?

Have you tried reinstalling?

What order have you installed your BF2142 files up until FS1.4?

What other 2142 mods do you have installed, just curious, one might conflict, though I have never heard of this happening before, most people do not have more than 1 2142 mod since they are hardly any out there.

Re: Game crashs when I click on [Multiplayer] or [Not supported]

The order should be:

BF2142
BF2142 1.5 patch
FS 1.4
FS launcher updates

Re: Game crashs when I click on [Multiplayer] or [Not supported]

When you reinstalled, did you reinstall frm 2142, or just FS?
Does 2142 still work?

I think you might have a corrupt download.

To fix this, go to your 2142 mods folder.

C:/Program Files/Electronic arts/battlefield2142/mods

In here you will see lots of .rar files

these are the FS builds. Delete all the builds, and FS.

Then run the 1.4 installer, and re-update. I hope you still have the FS1.4 installer so you down have to redownload it.

Uninstalling FS and deleting all FS files now, give you guys a shout if it works.

Re: Game crashs when I click on [Multiplayer] or [Not supported]

Nope, just crashed again when I went to multiplayer.

Some more info:

As I am not using non-vanilla resolutions, I have to set my target to: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Battlefield 2142\BF2142.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +widescreen 1 +modPath mods\FirstStrike.
If I do not do this, the game crashes on all mods, this one included, as well as Battlefield 2142 itself.

Don't know if that helps at all.
