Crash while loading Graphics

[unmerged(379246)]

same here. i can get the options screen to load but it fails when the game starts. All my stuff is 100% updated.

Ok. Try this

Start the game with the sengokugame.exe

Change resolution on your machine to something lower, like 1680X1050

No luck, same thing happens at 1680x1050 and when i load from the exe.

I really doesn't understand this.

1. The game did work before the update.
2. No errors, no crash, it just doesn't want to start.
3. You have done all that is mentioned in the sticky.

Is this correct?

1. game did not work before update.
2. It starts, i see the load screen with a ninja staring at some people around a fire. I then see a load screen with a women on a bridge with the tips on the bottom. It loads graphics, something checksum, something sound, loading graphics. At the 2nd loading graphics it crashes out into desktop and says Sengoku has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution.
3. I have done all mentioned in the sticky. Also moved the program folder and re-installed. Also updated gpu.

Very strange
Try this, I don't think it will work, but it worth a try.

change your setting.txt so it looks like that down below

Same Problem here, Sengoku crashes at the "Loading Graphics" part. Just bought the game from STEAM today and was patched automatically. Have no idea whether previous patch works or not. Changed the settings to what you advised and still crashes.

Could we somehow revert to the old patch? Until this bug is fixed?

Didn't work.

I think the error.log file do mean something on the missing files:

[texturehandler.cpp:190]: Couldn't find texture file: gfx\\test\\menu_tiles_1.tga.
[texturehandler.cpp:190]: Couldn't find texture file: gfx\\test\\menu_tiles_dialog_2.tga.

cause I don't see these 2 files in the directory specified........

 

[Gaute65]

I have the same in my errorlog, and I can run the game.

 

[Gaute65]

After the latest patch I continually crash while I am loading graphics, I've played this game with no problems before this patch.

Nice patch..

CAn you please tell more about the patch?

What exactly was updated.

 

[unmerged(379311)]

Anything else I can try? Going to request a refund since I can't play the game.
