Well i got a new monitor and the damn game wont turn on everytime i get an error message but i dont know what it says because the resolution is in 1920x1600 is it because the game does not support it so it wont even open. the first loading screen appears and the console also then it shuts off

Sounds like something's wrong with your sof_mp. Try re-installing it, unless you haven't done some changes in your sof2 folder..

no in havent messed with that in a while. only 2 mods i got in there is rpm2k3 for server client and *O.B.C* mod which changes weapon skins and sounds. and i have been using that mod since its release a few years ago

edit also i just tryed a new install and the same thing happens.

you could try to install your monitor drivers ?
i dunno lulz.
but the only problems i ever had were that.

Delete your Windows map.
Should work then.

GL

lol windows map? your bullshitin me

Have you tried running it in safe mode yet (not Windows safe mode, but the SoF2 safe mode)? I think when it runs in that mode, the resolution is 800x600. What video card are you using?

My 24" monitor's native resolution is 1920x1080 (which is what I run it at). SoF2 doesn't have that resolution, so I set it at 1900x1600 and it seems fine for me.

i got ATI rad. 4650 HD

maybe ill delete all my sof2mp.cfg ive always used the same cfg so it save me time and hassle fixing settings every reinstall

bump

you all are fuckin useless

Well, it looked like the last post was you going to try something? I guess people were waiting on your results.
Did you try what Bane said about setting your resolution?

i can set the res. without getting into sof and i dont hae safe mode icon for sof. so i guess im boned

tried to run it as administrator?

Sounds like a driver issue, have you run into the problem with other games? Try out different drivers for your card...

What driver/catalyst version are you running? I have an ATI 5870 and everything was working fine for me on catalyst version 10.4. When I upgraded to 10.5 or 10.6, I couldn't load SoF2 (even in safe mode version of the game).

I assume you had no problems loading the game with your current set of drivers on a different monitor with lower resolution?

jus pull out ur hard-disk & RAM
and throw it in the dustbin .....!
*Problem Solved*

thats what it was the catalyst because when i got the monitor i upgrade the gfx to get the best out of the monitor.

So everything's working now?

yep

Have you just tried upgrading the drivers only and not the catalyst control center? I see that CCC 10.7 is out. I was thinking about trying to upgrade the drivers only.
