Black screen
« on: June 15, 2011, 11:15:23 pm »

I used to play FOnline a while ago.
I have now a new computer, 64-bit and using the intel's GPU (may be relevant).
I downloaded the game and set it up properly, but when I start the game all I see is a black screen and a small part of the top left corner is visible (about the size of the cursor).

What is causing this problem? How do I fix it?

It would be good if you could post a screenshot of how it looks. Also, what does FOnline.log say?

Did you run the updater to make sure you have the latest files?

Here's an image:


I found some errors at the log file:
Code: [Select]
FONames::GetDefineValue - Define<CR_Centipede_default_LG.tga> not found, taked zero by default.
Animation3dEntity::Load - Unknown token<0> in file<art\critters\VbCentipede.fo3d>.

FONames::GetDefineValue - Define<CR_Centipede_Blue_LG.tga> not found, taked zero by default.

I updated the game properly.

I tried to reinstall, copy again the .DAT files, change resolution, delete cache.

Which files are relevant to the main menu screen?

I am having the exact same problem! Did you get it fixed? Any help would be appreciated! I also have 64 bit windows 7, both dedicated graphics and integrated. I have tried running the program with both GPUs and get the same problem with both. Black screen with the top left corner only visible... I can see the mouse move in the corner also....very weird! Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really want to try this game out! Thanks!

If problem is caused by win, then try installing some virtual machine and emulate win xp... maybe will help, donno for sure.

Windows 7 compatibility mode doesnt changes too much. Lots of things (ok, some a bit old) didnt worked even in compatibility mode. Better you install a virtual machine. Plus, you wont have screwed up graphic in Fallout 1&2  ;D

I tried to use virtual machine but it does the same problem and the launcher won't even start.

I played it on windows 7 before and didn't have that problem...
