Started Steam
Bought BT:Season pass
Steam installed it automatically
Ran game when ready...

Three logos (BT developers ad) ran, then FPS counter shown at upper-right corner and nothing else happened. Same as here:

So here is actual in game footage after all the logos. Nothing just the counter. If i minimize and bring it up the counter will be at 78 but here you can see its at 56.

Its rendering SOMETHING but what?

So, ... Today after I bought BattleTech (hereinafter referred to as "BT") Season pass from Steam same problem occurs. Just 3 cinematics (3 logos shown) and FPS counter. Nohing more, nothing less.

I had used Google and thats why I've tried to:

- delete folders Hare**** in
--- %APPDATA% / Local
--- %APPDATA% / LocalLow
--- %TEMP%

- rename AVProVideo.dll

- run Ccleaner

- delete BT keys in regedit

- install new (latest) nVidia drivers

- install new (latest) K-lite Megacodecs pack

- start game with ALT pressed // then changed resolution, windowed mode, and so on...

- rename Profiles.dat

- delete Profiles.dat

- BT folder rights retake by CMD / takeown ...

- run game as administrator

- Direct-X re-installation

after any change I made in Steam app. / BT -- file verification -- always successfully finished

NO MODs, HACKs or something like that EVER, just clean "Steam" install of an old game with brand new "datadisc" (added regullary today with Season Pass via Steam DLC)


...and after all this steps -- no change! After few hours I'm really p**ed off becouse of this BT Season "Shall-not" Pass thing I bought today. Any ideas? I just wanted to play BT today...

ISSUE SOLVED!

This event occurs when you have Windows set to use a server proxy for LAN network BUT ONLY WITH blank (not filled) address of this proxy server. Unity crashes, Mono can work with it or vice versa, I'm not sure about this.

Working solution:

1. press Win+R, write "inetcpl.cpl ,4" without quotes and press enter
2. choose LAN settings (bottom right) or press Alt + L
3. in lower half of the screen you can see "Proxy server" -->
--> in case of THIS issue IS CHECKED Use proxy for LAN network
--> in case of THIS issue IS NOT FILLED the address box
4. for solving THIS issue uncheck the "Use a proxy for your LAN" and press OK
5. close all other opened windows & try to run a game

As you can see now, the fps counter (even Steam overlay FPS counter) drops for a few seconds while making successfully connection to a BT server
Mouse pointer disappear after approx. 3 seconds and "pre-game" video is launched with "press esc to skip" in upper left corner, so the game is starting
