Game fails on load

[Helpless]

Thanks for the dump.

It looks like it is caused by the speech recognition service which is dispatching messages to the window during it's creation. I was able to replicate it on my pc.

Can you try to disable speech recognition in control panel, if it is on of cause?

Attached an exe which might fix startup issue.

Please give it a try, just keep in mind this is a version which is still under the test.

I was getting crashes whenever I attempted to load a scenario. Disabling "Run as Administrator" and all the DPI settings, plus adding the linked BETA .exe fixed the issue entirely. Just FYI.

I too was having the same issue of a white box and then nothing, having tried all your other suggestions a clean install and your Beta exe seems to have solved the problem thank you.

So I disable the speech recognition and the game started. Do you want me to load the beta as well? ... or only if I want to reenable speech recognition?

If you could try it with speech recognition on, it would give us another prove. Anyway, thanks for the logs and confirmation.

Copied new .exe to replace original .exe. turned on speech recognition to run at startup. Restarted computer. Started game and it runs OK with speech recognition enabled.

Thanks!

Great news, thank you for confirming that.

I had the exact same issue as the original poster.

For me closing Cortana fixed the issue
