Re: Technical FAQ for First Strike

Reinstall.  I had this once, I never tracked it down, but a clean reinstall got rid of it straight away.

To: Guard502,

Tried your suggestions. Deleting the cache did not resolve it, hitting caps lock then enter did not solve it, brought up mini-map from upper right had corner into full view is all. Thanks for your suggestions, and if you think of anything else let me know.

I dumped it and deleted the folder from 2142 mods folder. Ran the .exe in admin mode, both checked in compability and selected with right click. Installed 1.4 Full as before, updated via launcher, updated PB for FS folder under program files, and in 2142 mod folder. Restarted, and made sure the shortcut for the launcher was checked for admin mode. Same problem occured, map loads, background good, can hear the kit selections as my I move my mouse randomly over the screen. Can hear players in Tie Fighters screaming by, yet no spawn or kit selection screen is visible.  I even updated my video drivers in between dump and reinstall.

Thanks for idea, but to no avail. Let me know if you have any others. Thanks.

I had the same problem once but it was fixed after a reinstall like gwynzer's.

If you and Gwyner don't mind where did you download it from. I am starting to wonder if I have a bad download of the .exe file. I have tried to reinstall 4 times now, and it never works out. Thanks for all the input everyone, I am sure that an answer will reveal itself.
