Crashing before start menu.

[Tayfling]

Win 7 ultimate SP1, 64bit OS, 8GB ram, Acer laptop, Cor I3 - 2530 GHz, Nvidia Geforce GT 540m.

I bought Sengoku in steam, and it has installed 1.4v.
i started it, it was loading checksum, sounds - ok,
then loading graphics - and crush, many times as i start.
EU4, CK2 are working like no prob.

I have updated GFX, .NET, visual.
tried editing graph. settings.
reinstalled game many times.

Trying going to your steam folder and rename your "SengokuGame.exe" to "Sengoku.exe"

Same with me, same experience. This game behaves Japanese and commits seppuku (harakiri). Each time. Frustrating. Please see my own thread. Tried to rename the exe file, but no improvement.

I have found the solution. first, put both Sengoku.exe and SengokuGame.exe into Windows XP (Service pack 2) Compatibility mode. then restart your computer. after the restart, run Sengoku.exe from the sengoku folder. make sure it is updated, then click play. it works fine.

if that failed to work, update ALL of the neccesary programs for sengoku (.NET, virtual C++, etc.) then try again.

I found solution: You need some special audio-codecs which the game is using.

In fat black letters "Here are the download links .. blabla"
First the 32bit version, the 64bit version after. both have a size of 20-22mb.
But take care ! The installer is trying to install some "extra" programs. ;-)
Like a new search-bar for your browser or other silly stuff (smiles for chat programs for example).
