Matrix Games Forums

Good, so, specifically, what does happen when you select campaign now?

It immediately goes back to the first menu where unity can choose to play game or get an update and on the left is the screen advertising another game from matrix. It simply goes there.

Have you tried launching the game directly from Middle East.exe?

Yes I just tried launching the game from the ME.EXE and the same thing happens.

Not ME.exe, Middle East.exe, can you try that one?

I tried Middle East.exe and that did not work either.

Could you post your error log again?

No. error.log alone is insufficient.

Immediately after any such crash, make a zip file of the entire logs folder and post it here.

The situation is different. No crash, rather, failure of campaign launch (yes?). But the prescription is the same.

yes it seems so. here is the error log.

You have posted your error.log only. We need to see, in addition, the frontend.log & engine.log files!

If you don't know how to "make a zip file of the entire logs folder and post it here," please indicate such, so we can provide detailed instructions how to do so.

This too is important to note:

Immediately after any such crash, make a zip file of the entire logs folder and post it here.

The requested frontend.log & engine.log files will be much, much bigger than the error.log. They will be too lengthy to post here as displayed text. Which is why you need to assemble them into a .zip (compressed) file, and post the .zip file here.

I'm embarrassed to say I don't know how to make a zip file. I'll need instructions.

It's too complicated. Please just send your frontend.log & engine.log files, as e-mail attachments, to:

I'm on it.
