SH5 Crash on load...

redpiano · 08-02-13, 12:23 PM

Hey guys, I'm having a frustrating problem with silent hunter 5 now. For no apparent reason it's ceased functioning, when I try to load into a save file or even start a new game it'll go to the loading screen and right when it would finish loading into the world the screen goes black and I have to end task in the task manager.

I've tried several different solutions already, I do not have the C++ redist. file that everyone said was causing it, I tried removing every C++ redist. that was installed post my SH5 installation, I tried updating my GPU drivers, I tried updating Direct x and I tried reinstalling the uplay client.

I would really like to not have to reinstall the game as I have a bunch of mods installed and had a really good campaign going that I'd like to not have to reconfigure and restart.

windows 7 64
8gb ddr3
gtx680
i5 760

Any ideas?

Do you have the latest Uplay client from UBI?

CTD with or without mods installed?
We need a modlist probably. If using mods from a previous saved game, and loading saved game, same mods used and in the same mod order as before?

I haven't changed anything in settings or with my mods but here's my mod list and order.

I have the latest uplay client.

And like I said, it crashes even when I try to start a new campaign.

1. does the game crash or does just black screen appear?
2. if a black screen, how much time were you waiting before quit the game through task manager?

It just goes black and when I open task manager it says it's not responding anymore.

But I have some stuff to do, so I'll launch it and leave it loading and see if I come back to a loaded game.

I let it sit for probably 15 minutes and it's still black so yeah it's crashing.
