headhunter_uni23 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 try this: - play in windowed mode - change resolution - use 2D display - go on holiday and leave the match to your AssMan not sure if it will help, but at least these are some tests that could help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kickballz Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Playing in windowed mode shouldn't ever have to be an option. It's pathetic that for years and years SI suggest that. Whatever the problem is, it should never be something that playing in windowed mode fixes. It is incredibly lame - if there ever was a problem in this area and it still hasn't been fixed after about four or five years then it's an absolute disgrace.

headhunter_uni23 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I'm not a SI employee hiding behind an innocent nickname with orders to sell some support ********. I just tried to help GavinR, as sometimes changing resolution or switching from full to windowed mode helps. I have the same issue with Left 4 Dead and L4D2; they freeze if not playing in windowed mode. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not accurate and we have not suggested for years and years that users should play in Windowed Mode to get around a problem. There was one particular FM version where there was an issue with full-screen for some users that was fixed in a patch, of which this was suggestion to identify if this was indeed the problem (and offered as a workaround until the patch was released).

Danny Dire Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 This is awful. I didn't have a single problem with the game before the patch, but now it is totaly unplayable. Crashes everytime I try to play a game which you can imagion is very annoying. The worst thing is that the patch installed via steam so I had no choice over the matter. It has ruined the game. So SI what do i do to stop it crashing everytime I try to play a game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter_uni23 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I had crashs dumps with the previous patches and had none ever since the new patch. I couldn't play 2 games in a row without a crash dump, now I've played 15 in a row without reloading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why this would be the case at all, but there's a few things you can try: - Clear your cache - Verify integrity of game cache - Reinstall the game First try clearing your cache (details below): First of all you need to turn on hidden files and folders. XP: My Computer 'Tools' 'Folder Options'. The go to the 'View' tab and select 'Show hidden files and folders' VISTA and 7: My Computer 'Organize' 'Folder and Search Options'. The go to the 'View' tab and select 'Show hidden files and folders' Once this is done, follow the instructions below: Windows XP: 1. Open “My Computer” 2. Navigate to : “Documents and Settings\<Username>\Application Data\ 3. Go into the “Sports Interactive” Folder. 4. Go to the “Football Manager 2010” Folder. 5. Delete the 'cache' Folder found inside here. Wndows Vista and 7: 1. Click “Start” 2. Click your username on the start Menu 3. Click on “AppData” and then “Roaming” 4. Go into the “Sports Interactive” Folder 5. Go to the “Football Manager 2010” Folder. 6. Delete the 'cache' Folder found inside here. If that doesn't work, from the "My Games" tab in your STEAM browser: 1. Right click on "Football Manager 2010". 2. Select "Properties" from the pop-up menu. 3. Select the "Local Files" tab. 4. Select "Verify integrity of game cache..." This may take a while. If that doesn't work, I'd suggest reinstalling the game through STEAM. It should automatically patch you up to 10.2. You can do the above steps but instead of "Verify integrity of game cache..." you should "Delete local game content..." and then re-install. Hope this helps.

Far from helping this has accually made the game much worse the title screen doesn't load up correctly I started the game and nothing works at all cant continue nothing. I can't even check if this has helped the match engine because the game is completely ruined. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not completely ruined, though it sounds like you need to do a complete re-installation. How did you install the game originally? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil i tried to clear my cache but dont have this folder in my Sports Interactive folder and my hidden files is switched on.I verified the files option through steam it said that 119 files were missing it uploaded the missing files but the 3d game freeze is still there. I have now deleated fm10 from steam and started uploading it again to see if this helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps there was a problem during the patching process through STEAM. Let us know how you get on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
