    Game Crashes

    I've previously launched the game, adjusted settings elements, run the benchmark 3 times and eventually played the game up to where I rejoin the Marshall in the cabin where we get overrun by the peggies. During that fight my game crashed. Since then it won't launch, just crashes every time.
    I have googled for crash fixes, tried most of them (including old Nvidia driver) but no joy.
    I did see one post that said there was a config. file, made by the game after a crash, that you had to ease. but when I tried the search path they listed, it didn't relate to my files.
    Does anyone know about this config. file and if so, what is the exact path I need to follow to get to it.
    Thanx.

    Hey,

    I haven't got the game installed at my location so I can't be sure of the file name, but usually there's one called systemsettings.ini or GamerProfile.xml in the games installation folder and deleting that will set the game back to the default settings and create a new file with the default settings when the game is relaunched. You could try this to get past the scene you are up and the readjust the settings after if this works.

    Make sure your game files are all valid and not corrupt? Maybe the game can't load a resource for some reason.
