Crash on Startup

[Possemaster 1]

I bought the game on steam.

Reinstalled it 50 times now.

It never worked.

Doubleclick on game Exe - instant crash.

I use Windows 8 x64

Latest DirectX

Latest Nvidia Drivers

All updates installed

Reinstalled game in several locations already, No GO

Intel Core I7 3930k

64 GB Corshair Dominator GT 2133 DDR3

2x EVGA GTX 690 Sig Edition

I need help because I paid for the game and cannot play.

Already tried to remove the xml files but NO GO.

Have you tried launching the game from the Steam client?

You could also try making a shortcut to the game exe and then add the nosplash option by right clicking on the shortcut, going to properties and adding -nosplash in the target box like this: "E:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\Carrier Command Gaea Mission\carrier.exe" -nosplash

Someone had a problem like this before where it was video playback that was causing the crash and there's a video in the startup sequence which the -nosplash will skip, so if it at least lets you get to the menu, you will know that's the problem.

Also, in your My Documents/Carrier Command folder, there are files crash.log and error.log, if you open these in notepad and post the details, a dev may be able to diagnose your problem more.

Yep that was the sollution.

Thanks a Lot.

Rightclick the game in your steam list, go to startup options and fill in "-nosplash" withour quotes and your good.

So are you finding that it now lets you play the other videos in the game without crashing?
