Hi WFTO isn't starting. It crashes midway through the loading on the splash screen, with the following message.


An exception was thrown by the type initialiser for Galaxy.Api.GalaxyInstance. The game cannot start

I'm using GOG Galaxy on OSX 11.6

Game Version:
GOG Galaxy
Platform:
OS X
2.0.8 Startup Crash

Hi Tomined,

Apologies for the delay in my response it's been a busy few weeks as we worked on a significant internal milestone on our current project.

I've seen a similar issue reported by another OS X user on GOG and I think that there's something wrong with the Galaxy API version the game is using. We updated the Unity Engine in 2.0.8 and it seems it's causing this crash. It seems that rolling back the version using Galaxy to 2.0.7 will allow you to play the game.

Please give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'd also like your player.log if possible or crash log that should have been generated on crash. Posting Output Logs


Cheers,


Lee

Thanks Lee and no problem, good luck with the new project! Rolling back has made the game work again.

Here's the log file for the version that crashed:

Hi. I the same problem. How to roll back the old version of the game?
