  • #1, by AkcayKaraazmakSaturday, 05. September 2015, 16:01 9 years ago
    Hi guys, after I built the game, i can start the .exe and play it (my pc is win7 64) , I copied the built files and tried on a laptop with windows 10 64bit it gives error when I run the exe " init failed, could not load game. There is no game file or the game file is corrupted" .... I tried the same built files on another laptop with win7 64x, and game works but doesnt show the 3d character :///

    Hi. Is VS compatible with Windows 10? I just received this error when I tried to incorrectly scale down graphics in a build for 8.1. Easily corrected. Haven't upgraded to 10 for fear of situations like this. Does 10 have compatibility mode? It must, right? Have you tried that? Good luck!

    Hi mate, what you mean incorrectly scaling graphics? I just exported the game and it gave this error. Only thing i didnt try is convert all images to web. But dont think it will make this error.

    Maybe your win10 lacks of opengl 2.0... Just an idea... To verify this could you post the messages.log which was created by the game?

    I meant the log from the exe you started (the compiled game).

    But where is that log file mate? After I export, only text file is the report.txt in the export folder.

    should be anywhere in appdata folder in windows and then a subfolder created for your game. It's called messages.log
    You could also try to start the game in compatibility mode for XP

    hmm thats all in there? Seems like it started and there are other errors in the center_char function...
    I expected some kind of opengl error there, hmm....
    If there aren't any other hints from the messages.log you could try to check if your graphics card driver is up to date.
    Its just an idea what this "init failed, could not load game" error is about.
    Maybe the devs can tell some other idea on how to fix this...

    I think, why character disapears is releated with the graphics card. And I changed the compability option to windows 8 in windows 10 and then the game worked finaly on win10 grin

    Thank you so much mate!!!
