v1.0 Crashing when joining multiplayer servers

[Stickbob771]

the CD key on the back of my box was used when i was about 9 years old. i lost the account and couldnt recover it so i tried reusing the code with a new account, would that make it invalid?

No it wouldn't invalidate the code.

Are you sure you typed it correctly?

for some reason my regular bf2 couldnt find its keys so i manually entered it into PR and it accepted it, i dont know why my BF2's having an error but as long as PR works im fine . thanks for the help

I'm having something of the same issue that he is. Mine crashes when I try to join a multiplayer match. I can run BF2 vanilla just fine. I was playing it earlier today in fact.

KooteniaRanger and nuk3m,
Start PRLauncher->Options->Video Tab(default tab)->UNTICK the Fullscreen tickbox.->Lower the display resolution to something smaller than your native fullscreen resolution.->CLICK APPLY on bottom right.

Start PR, try to join online multiplayer server.

If you ctd, you will get a pop up message window telling you the error message causing the crash. Screencap or write down the message, then post in this thread.

I did this and the game starts in full screen mode and after joining multiplayer it gets ctd and theres no error message or anything. Then i went to default BF2 and went into setting/video and tried to change some setting and while saving i got ctd too.

aha, dont know wut steam overlay is but i had installed Overwolf that came in with TS3 n I always have it running, I closed that Overwolf which does various overlays and i was able to connect, its strange but the Overwulf has an app for use in PR to do calculation for motars, and the overwolf is not compatible with PR

[LITOralis.nMd]

Overwolf overlay only works if you use the 32bit version of TS3.

IDK why. It's just how it is.
