Ion Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Hi, I installed NOLF2 on a Windows 7, 64-bit, PC, patched it to 1.3, modded it etc. In multiplayer everything works fine. But the singleplayer mode crashes after a minute or so to desktop. First the graphics go all weird: I can see through doors or there are colorful stripes and beams in my way ... any ideas? Oh, and I use an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 graphics card. Edited July 24, 2015 by Ion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliteone Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 You may want to try Windows XP Compatibility mode if it keeps crashing with the client error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ion Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 thx, I tried that and it didn´t work. I´ve been playing arount with the graphics resolution though. It seems to help to reduce the resolution. I can play for 5 minutes now ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelEyes Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I had similar issues with other old games. First I do the regular stuff: - Start in WinXP compatibility- Always run as administrator Then I open my GPU Software. I put every setting on application based = the application controls the GPU and the GPU will not force anything on the application The final part is tinkering. You start the game in a resolution that was acceptable when the game was released. Usually 1024x728. You then disable all hardware options. ALL of them. You then start enabling options on an option by option base untill you get errors. When you finally got the options together that make it work, you play with the resolution. Sometimes these old games use effects we no longer use. Modern cards deliver better performance and possibilities but not always backwards compatible. You may find your FPS and stability soar when you disable "shadows of stupid little useless objects". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
