Just DL'd and Installed via GOG; won't launch

Postby Tracey.Peterson » Fri Sep 21, 2012 4:37 am

I've been excited about this game, but it's not working for me.

Here's the crash log; it's the same every time I try to launch. Any ideas? I'm on an AMD64 machine, running 1920 x 1080 (tried forcing 1280 x 720 and launching but that failed too) if that's helpful.

Seems like it has something to do with the video mode, but I'm very confused and sad. :(

Please help!

Hello! I'm very sorry about this problem.

The crash log definitely suggests a video issue. What video card to you have? For a lot of people with this problem and ATI video cards, a completely uninstall and reinstallation of the most up to date drivers drivers has proved successful. There's a few that are still unsolved but that's definitely your best bet at the moment. I'm going to assume you know how to do that since you've already been troubleshooting successfully, but let me know if you need help.

Hopefully it'll work out for you.
