Ello Devs and players and whatnot,
I started playing CoH at release and loved it etc, played for couple years and went off do do other things, had a couple of times I came back to play with friends a bit etc. I've updated my computer, but not since the last time I successfully played late last year; my OS machine and parts are all the same. I used to run everything on ultra, can't touch some settings now without crashing, that's whatever. Doesn't need to look shiney or anything. Per some old buddies' requests I tried to get back into it this week. But for some reason (after my lengthy battle to even get it running again after installing via the launcher,) when I load in now and try to talk to an npc, (store, mission, etc,) their dialog window starts to pop up and then i freeze. Stay that way forever.
Can't really play if I can't talk to anyone. I've tried loading in safe mode, lowest gfx settings (though I don't really see where the two would relate), yadda yadda. Nothing's working.
So I looked around for similar problems, didn't see any similarities to PC problems and figured I'd see if there were any solutions to be had. If not, eh. Guess I won't be playing.
Thanks in advance.
