Demo crashes

[vorob]

Game crashes when I’m tryin to move some objects. Every time different objects cause crash And i see the same shit on 2 different computers.

[WindexGlow]

Can you post system specs and HPL log?

[Thomas]

Could you give a more detailed description of your problem? Where and how does the crash happen?

Also:
What is your system configuration?
Did you change any settings before starting the game?

[vorob]

My config you can see here http://vorob.nm.ru/config/Config.htm it's in russian but i think you'll understand main parts.

Here you can see video of this crash http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUKg7_rXX7Y




"Did you change any settings before starting the game?"

Only resolution

[Thomas]

I would also like to see your hpl.log. You will find it in "My Documents/Penumbra/Black Plague/". Please attach it.

The only thing that I can think of right now that might screw it up is your soundcard. Try and update your sound card drivers and see if that helps.

When I get your hpl.log I might get more info.

[Klayman]

Same thing is happening to me
edit: I am using Windows XP Pro. My grafic card is Radeon 9200.
This is my HPL file:

Spoiler below!

Klayman:
Are you sure EFX is turned off? Also try updating the drivers to the sound card and see what happens.

And is sound hardware on?

I really got a feeling this is a sound issue.

[Klayman]

EFX and sound hardware is off. Still it is crashing. I am not sure if I have updated card. I am gonna update it and post later if it is working.

[vorob]

I have updated my Realtek driver to the last version, but game still crashes.

[Thomas]

What I will do is to fix a special debug version of the demo and try to track down this bug. I will try to have this done tonight or tomorrow (GMT time). I will upload it in this thread.

Please check in now and then and see if it's up.
