Ok. Everything is working fine!
The treasure map:
1 - Uninstall MFDE and clean the registry entries. I use a program called REVO Uninstaller, and everything is swept from the computer (files, archives, registry entries);
2 - Erase the file “Username/AppData/Local/MFDExtractor” (I think this is very important);
3 - Reboot;
4 - Install MFDE (last version 6.1.1), and run it (in admin mode);
5 - Setup MFDE like Shadow´s post on this thread;
6 - Make sure “Cockpit Display to external windows” is OFF in BMS configuration
7 - Run BMS (in admin mode).Voilá. Now it´s time to set Helios……
Still no difference for me, lastest version, did your steps, icon sits in tray, nothing happens, doesnt respond with right click ran as admin didnt make any diff.

Ok, hold on. I left the room, and mfde was working when i came back in a few mins later. It seems very slow, any changes i make are taking minutes to come up, any ideas?
-
Again, read the thread I posted. People have had this “slow” problem and maybe the solution is there.

Hi all, newcomer here!
I’ve read the other almost 30 long pages with same threadname, and to all the troubleshooting going on around here, I must say I’m 100% certain it’s your antivirus whose to blame! It’s false positive corrupting your install, or if it didn’t allready it’s working hard to do it. My guess is thats why your computer slows down.
Here it worked first time installation, without any of the other fixes mentioned, but they’re great too, thx alot all
Just disable that antivirus and do the install. -
I use MS security essentials, nothing else. Will try and disable and see how that goes…
-
Uninstalled mfde, stopped the security client, and reinstalled mfde. Still the same, program doesn’t react until 5mins + later. Strange one.
-
Try downloading the file again from the web with mse disabled, and check if it has quarantined files or not. Not sure but just to make sure it doesn’t remove anything from the setup files. The setup should contain 2 files, MFDExtractorSetup.msi & setup.exe

master did you try playing with the thread priority ?
( Sounds somewhat DrWho-ish )
PS: so you cant even get to its “Options” interface ???
-
Shad, no sadly not. All i’m getting is the tray icon, but nothing happens when i right click for options, i don’t get the menu, its just sitting there. After a few minutes it comes to life but it’s unusable. I have read the threads, and disabled my security but nothing has worked as yet…
-
Sorry master I cant think of any thing else, are you Win 10 ?
And in falcon bms.cfg what values do you have for :
set g_bExportRTTTextures 1
set g_nRTTExportBatchSize 2??

You have to run MFDE as Administrator and disable visual designs and desktop composition.

Interesting as I have neither set.
But I am an Admin user and have my desktop set to Windows Basic.
