PR Technical Problems Thread

[AlmightyLion]

I had problem with my microphone yesterday. In general my mic (not mice ^.^) is o.k. but it's stopped work when i installed Win"7" on my PC.
I think problem in driver for my sound card (creative audigy 2ZS). Does someone know how i can fix it?

Win7 32bit or 64bit ?

I forgot, Win"7" 32 bit.

Have you downloaded the latest drivers, for your soundcard ?

I am having trouble installing PR. I installed the Client (Core). Then it tells me I need to install the levels and such so I go and install the Client (Patch) and it still does not seem to recognize that I've installed the core.

It gives me the message: This setup requires Project Reality v.85 to be installed.

Also, I have seen no desktop icon for PR pop up since I installed the core.

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks.

You must install both the Core and Levels files, not the patch. The patch is only if you're upgrading from a previous PR version, not if you're installing it for the first time.

Hope that helped!

[therifleman]

Thanks for the reply and for clearing it up. I'm now installing the levels client.

I've installed the core but is it unusual to not see a desktop icon after I did that?

[Dreadnought]

I believe the levels installer gives you the desktop icon

[therifleman]

Ok, new problem. I just saved the pr level setup launcher to my desktop. I double click the installer, click run, and nothing happens.

FYI: the Levels file from FileFront is corrupt I think...need to get the MOD DB levels instead.

[therifleman]

Yeah it seems they were corrupt and the MOD DB one worked. Now when I join a server it lets me play for a few minutes then I get kicked off with a message that says something along the lines of "Error Loading pbs." I have punkbuster and I am running the game as administrator. Any solution to this problem?

Edit: may be because my pbs files are out of date, updating now.

Yes, manually update your PB and then come back, if it didnt work.

Ok, updating helped that problem. Got two new ones.

-Won't let me join TG server-says I've been kicked by vote/admin for excessive teamkilling. I find this hard to believe seeing as I was on the TG server for about 20 econds before my game crashed.

-Still getting routine game crashes and freezes, most common being the "mmory.dll error"

- TG is full at 62/64, it 'll give you the above message if you try to join with that amount of players

- Download the modified BF2.exe to stop the memory.dll errors or set textures to medium

[therifleman]

Thansk for the help. The BF2.exe errored when I tried to download, but the texture change seemed to do the trick. Got through one whole game for the first time, so hoping for smooth runnings in the future.
