Crash, help please
I am at the mission where you got to pick up something with a grabber, then you got to turn a wheel and you got 2 minutes to escape from the room before it all blows up. Now when I run away, I click on the door (to exit the room, to be safe for the explosion).

Additional notes:
- I updated my graphics card driver
- Vista can't find an update for my sound drivers (but I still think they are fine since I don't have problems with any other games like crysis, call of duty 4, ..
- I deleted the settings.cfg file
- EFX and Use Hardware are turned off
Obviously none of these worked :\ !!

I added a picture with the error I got.

You can post the HPL log. It will help locating the error.

It is found in My Documents\Penumbra\Black Plague\hpl.log

It's most likely a corrupt install, as Cr4sh said. I just had a similar problem to this, posted HERE. I simply re-installed the game, and the problem was gone. Smile

Actually this sounds very much like a known bug that is fixed in the latest patch! So install that and it should work Smile Just as Jens said.

RE: Crash, help please
I have the same problem as dennis0011, but I can't apply the patch, since I got the game from Direct2Drive. I tried resetting the settings, reinstalling, neither worked so far. I also found a Requiem patch 1.01 on Direct2Drive, applied that (I also have Requiem of course) assuming that the two games are using the same engine, so it would help Black Plague too. Well, it didn't.
I'm so desperate now, please someone help!
