I'm sure when Xillax logs on he can log your error for you, but I can't. However, the recent solution for this type of error is to put your soldier of fortune 2 folder on your desktop, then open when the folder is on your desktop.

Try that and see if it works.

Thanks, forgy. !

No problem Syringe. Sorry if I can't help much more as I can't see what is causing the error in the code. When Xillax logs on I'll notify him of this and he can probably log your error.

The usual fixes from other people for your particular error is to take a look at your sof2 folder. One thing you can try doing that I've seen work is to run fairplay as administrator. Right click it and do Run as Admin. If that doesn't work, another fix is if there are any out of place files or pk3's, it could cause fairplay to crash because of some unknown characters in a pk3, even if it is not a hack. Usually shifty or xillax will log this and fix it themselves, but considering they aren't online yet and this is urgent, I suggest you prune your sof2 folder.

If you want a clean slate for your sof2, I suggest you go with a fresh install. Backup your config, wipe your folder after uninstalling and reinstall. You can also just try to delete a few files. If you are running fp for demo, might I suggest using the full PK3 file that includes maps, textures, pretty much everything you need to run demo with gold maps ( http://www.demobase....showtopic=20485 ). And the fairplay UI is also a handy tool to have, but mind you that it won't work if you're running on full ( http://www.demobase....showtopic=20586 ).

So try these things and maybe browse the fairplay sections of the forum if that doesn't work. I have to run to work now so I can't really help much further than this. I'll let Xillax know when he logs on and he can log your error then fix it for you. Thanks.

I got it to work!

I was unaware of that i can't use ViperMod, or can you? Took it out of the folder and bam, works like a charm..

cvar r_subdivisons must be over 46 though, another error..

start sof without fairplay, type /r_subdivisions 46 in console and start sof with fp again.

and no ur not allowed to use ViperMod indeed, fairplay doesnt allow mods.

Weird, it doesn't work mate.

open sof2mp.cfg and ctrl+f for r_subdiv, set the value to 46. if you are full player you have to do it in every mods config (rpm, nv, etc)
