VII: FAQ
Q: I can't install the game.
A: Make sure that you closed all unnecessary programs running in background (i.e
. some anti-virus programs can preclude proper game installation).
A: Try to copy all files from DVD to one directory on your hard disk, and after
this run setup.exe from your HDD.
Q: Why is an error message displayed while executing the game?
A: Make sure there is the latest DirectX installed on your computer. If not, inst

all DirectX from the game DVD (folder \support\DirectX\).

A: Make sure you have the latest motherboard, audio and video drivers on your co
mputer. They are usually available for download from the vendor's website. Check
the following sites for video card drivers:
www.ati.com for ATI RADEON drivers (we recommend 9.2 or higher)
www.nvidia.com for NVIDIA GeForce drivers (we recommend version 182.08 or higher)
A: Make sure that you closed all unnecessary programs running in background.
A: Check the BIOS settings if the AGP Fast Write Control is set to Disabled and
the Graphics Aperture Size is set to Minimum 64MB.
Q. I can hear actor voices and some environment sounds but I don't hear gun shot
s.
A: If you are using 4.1 or better speaker system please check if it is set prope
rly in your sound card properties. You may also try changing speaker system to 2
/2.1 and then check out if you hear all sounds.
Q: I can't join Internet games and people can't join my Internet server.
A: Please check if after clicking on "Refresh list" button, you are able to join
one of the existing the game multiplayer servers.
A: You will need to check that your firewall (if you're using one) allows the ga
me access through it (please remember that Windows has built-in firewall). Ports
needed to be opened are 27632 and 32500.
A: If you are using two network interfaces (i.e. one for LAN card and second as
modem for Internet connection) disable the one not responsible for Internet conn
ection in order to connect to.
A: Please remember that game version of both server and client must be the same
in order to accomplish connection.
A: Please remember that server might be running maps you do not have - in this c
ase you will not be able to connect to that server.
Q: My multiplayer server is too slow when hosting a multiplayer game.
A: General rule of thumb for hosting faster multiplayer games is that the better
the computer you are hosting it on, the better the game runs. Another thing res
tricting speed of multiplayer games is the connection bandwidth you are using to
play the game, the faster the connection the better the game works.
