Well, I hope Im posting this in the right place. But whenever me and my friend try and play sshock2 online we connect fine no problems there, we can play saved games, but whenever we try and start a new game my friends screen goes black and nothing happens. Any ideas as to what caused this?

Thanks.:

I think it might have something to do with the Graphics because I remember that when I edited shock.cfg to force the game to run in 32-bit color depth it would make the screen go black when trying to start a new game, but it also did that when loading a game so I'm not quite sure what it might be.
I can't think of anything because if you can load saved games and it runs then I wonder why it only does on starting a new game.

Does the black screen happen when he tries to start a new game in single player ?
I did also read somewhere that both of you re-installing the game usually fixes most multiplayer problems
