Hi,

I get a black screen after splash screen. Game version is the Heart of Gold that came out today. I have tried everything I can come up with e.g. update drivers, close antivirus/firewall, force dx9/11, set gpu options...


Here are my specs:

Win 10 64bit

Gtx 970

I5-6500

8gb memory


Output log: output_log.txt


I really want to play the new campaing....so I hope you can come up with a solution :)

Thanks!

Looking through your output log I found a couple of errors that look like this:


[Coherent Browser] (Error) Starting process ""D:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/War For The Overworld/WFTOGame_Data\CoherentUI_Host/windows\CoherentUI_Host.exe" --coherent-options=host-08cb7ddb-3946-443e-8f6c-37426fc2b7ae" failed with error code 2


ApplicationException: Creating a ViewContext failed!
at CoherentUISystem.Start () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0


Obviously i'm not one of the coders, but to me that seems like the Coherent UI (the 3rd party program the game uses to render the game's HUDs and UIs) failed to launch correctly, which would explain why you have a blank screen.


I'll see if I can get one of the coders to come take a look (although if it is a 3rd party/Chorent UI issue, there might not be all that much we can actually do on our end, other than pass the bug onto them)
