The first of the beginning that I purchased was able to play.

But CTD came to happen from the second play.

Meanwhile, because it did not pass with 1st, I think that it is not the problem of the driver.I updated a driver, but was no use for the time beng.
It was no use even if I installed a game again.

OS:Windows7-64bit

CPU:Intel core i7 4770

GPU:NVIDIA geforce GTX 760

Hello NoobNooberNoobest,

Did you by any chance install the Japanese Translation mod from:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=611504489
???

I think the issue is indirectly caused by this, because it adds a new column to the games translation file for Japanese, which then allows to select Japanese language in the game options, what you did.
However with the new Patch 1.4 the translation file was updated and overwritten, so that the additional Japanese translation column is now gone.
And now in the game options the selected language points to this non existing column for Japanese, which is causing the game to not load properly anymore.

But even if you would now reinstall the Japanese translation mod to the new patch, it would cause issues, because many translation keys were changed or added recently.
So to play in Japanese, I fear you will need to wait a little while till a new version of the Japanese mod is released, matching the new keys added with patch 1.4.

For now you can quick fix the problem by editing the Options.txt file to set your language back to English.
We will make on our end sure for next patch, that the game falls back to English and starts properly in case the selected language in options does not exist in the translation file.

To set your language back to English:
- Go to your games library in steam
- Right click on "War for the Overworld"
- In the context menu select "Properties"
- Switch to "Local Files" tab
- Click on "Browse Local Files"
- Go to subfolder "WFTOGame_Data/GameData"
- And open the file "Options.txt" in a text editor
- Find the line "Lang=7" (non-existing Japanese translation) and change it to "Lang=0" (existing English translation)

Then your game should start correctly again, but in English language.
Once an updated version of the Japanese translation mod is available you can install it again to play in Japanese.

As said we will make sure that future changes on the translation file will not break the game in case such translation mod is applied.

I hope this helps!

Cheers and good luck,
Stefan

can you please check if a crash_log was generated also please upload your output_log as well.


you can find both here (or your designated steam libray location)

X:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\War For The Overworld


the crash_log can be found in a folder with the date it crashed, the output log is in the WFTOGame_Data folder and is overwritten after each start.


please also tell me if you have a integrated GPU and which resolution you set for the game.


thanks for your report!
