If you can get to the splash screen, go to your Video-advanced options and change any values to ones that are pre-marked with an asterisk.

If you can't even get to the splash screen then put '-w 800 -h 600' in your launch options. This forces the game to be played in 800x600 resolution.

What is splash screen???and after how do i go to the video advanced???
Sorry but im a bit of a noob in computer maters.

Thank you so much for your help

When you start FF, are you able to get it up where it shows the initial screen?

If so, you'll see the following
FIND SERVERS
CREATE SERVER
OPTIONS
CROSSHAIRS / TIMERS
QUIT

Select OPTIONS

You'll see the following tabs

Select the VIDEO tab and select ADVANCED
This screen will appear:

Use the drop down box under each selection box and select the option that has an asterisk beside it.
(Model detail, Texture detail, Shader detail, Water detail, Shadow detail, Color Correction, Antialiasing mode, Filtering mode, Wait for vertical sync and High Dynamic Range)


Select OK and OK again.

Now try to play.

Did not have to do wat u said cos everything was ok just like the splash screen u sent on u reply.
Model detail-High*
Texture detail-High*
Shader detail-High*
Water detail-reflect world*
Shadow detail-High*
Color Corection-Enabled*
Antialising mode-4x MSAA*
Filtering mode-Trilinear*
Wait for vertical sync-Disabled*
High Dynamic Range-Full (if available)*
Hardware DirectX level - Direct v9.0

Anyway try a go on a server it started to load the map,stoped in sending client info and after 6 mins stoped and came back to the screen of the servers

This error is something to do with the mod not your computer. I've got all my settings as * and tried windowed which doesn't work properly because everything goes out of sync and looks retarded.

I was getting a hang before which occured within minutes of joining a game if not right away in seconds, but I completely removed all my vid drivers reinstalled (were already latest) and I can usually play for 10minutes or so before it goes now giving me the error in topic of this thread. Then if I go back in again I get a hang at "Sending Client Info" and have to restart my computer.

What kind of video card are yall using? And do you have the latest drivers?

There has been more ATI users having problems then Nvidia users.

Are you running in window mode?
