Title: FOnline Client wont launch, TRIED EVERYTHING!!!!! Please help
Post by: LoBear on November 05, 2010, 02:44:32 pm
Hi everyone, I heard about this game and was like, I instantly gotta try this out, but i cant get the client to work, i have had it running ONCE

The one time it worked i was able to create a character but not log in.

Anyway now i cant start the game at all. Tried reinstalling both Fallout 2 and the Fonline client several gazillion times.,

Heres my FOnline log. i searched for the line where it fails but it turned up only one result on the russian forums for this game, and its hard to understand with googles translationis lol.

Anyway heres the .log

'Starting FOnline (version 0282-91)...



Engine initialization...
DirectInput initialization...
DirectInput initialization complete.


Sprite manager initialization...
Sprite manager initialization complete.


SpriteManager::LoadFontOld - File<OldDefault.bmp> not found.


FOnline engine initialization fail.'

So any ideas anyone?? This OldDefault.bmp seems to be the problem, Please help me out, i wanna get into the wasteland!!!!!

IMPORTANT:
Run the updater to receive new files and delete the file named 94.23.237.127.2238.cache in the data folder.
In the FOnline.cfg file, find the line "PatchDatPath=fonline.dat" and change it to "PatchDatPath=faction.zip".
DAT files entered deprecation stage, whenever a .zip file with the same name is downloaded, the corresponding .dat can be deleted. In addition, fonline.dat is deprecated.

Have you done what thats said?

~deleteself password, but age doesn't change anything in the game so you shouldn't be worried about it.
