While the game loads, the loading screens are blank. When loaded the spinning rock is displayed and the voice says, "welcome overlord". But the menu is invisible. Random clicking in the area of the menu causes you to move to another room, but the menu still does not appear. This began with the last patch. Windows Vista

Hey mandragon,


Could I get a bit more info? I need the following before I can look into this further:

  • System specs.
  • Your output_log.txt which should help to point to the cause of the issue.
  • The debug.log found in the Coherent_UI folder in the game directory.

This guide should help: How to: Submit a Bug Ticket.

Did it all. No change. Still no loading screens when loading. And then comes up to the spinning rock with no menu visible and it gives the greeting.

Looking at the log the error must be caused by the UI not using the more powerful GPU in your system. in the How to force the more powerful NVidia GPU to turn on section did you follow the steps for both WFTOGame.exe and CoherentUI_Host.exe? You can find CoherentUI_Host.exe at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\War For The Overworld\WFTOGame_Data\CoherentUI_Host\windows

Please double check that you have C++ redist 2010,2012,2013,2015. 2015 is the most important one. You can see which ones are installed in Control Panel.


If you are missing any then please go to the "_CommonRedist/vcredist" folder in the game's install directory.
