CTD after installing lastest patch

mia389 · 09-09-10, 05:41 PM

I had started a campaign when the game first came out. I put SH5 on hold until moders came to the rescue. Yesterday I updated my game and when I launched it everything worked fine. When I tried to start a new campaign I got a CTD. I tried multiple times and samething happend ,so I reinstalled SH5 and the updater updated my game and the launcher. I am still having the same problem with the CTD when loading a new campaign.

I want to get this working to see if the mods have improved SH5 like I hope. I had no mods installed when doing the above.

Please help

Does the tutorial work?
I had similar problem, but tutorial worked, but after tutorial part, when entering the "real" mission I always had/have CTD. No legal solution yet, but I'm interested if you are experiencing same kind CTD as I am.

I know this is going to piss some people, but anyway. I'm sure that my problem is related to DRM. Either because my router settings or the DRM malfunctioning. I'm sure because I didn't have any mods installed and I have very reliable internet connection and I usually know my way with computers

This. Got the same issues on W7 every time on new install. But I suppose is more comfortable to put every errors on drm.

C++ runtime uninstall doesn't help me. So I'm still thinking of DRM issue in my case.

Anyway... my previous question to first post is that. Does tutorial work correctly?

Would be nice to have working SH5, but lack of Ubisoft support makes me rely on SH3 + GWX

omg it worked! Now I spend the rest of the day moding it :-) TY so much! I had to delete like 5 or 6 of the C++ things

I'd delete the SH5 folder located in Documents and let it load a new one on game start. Uninstalling the game doesn't remove this folder and my guess is that the leftover data in that folder is now conflicting with the 1.2 patch.

You'll just have to go back and set your options (sound, video) again in the game.
