Frustrating.

 

I'm able to launch and play the game with no problems unless I try to open the inventory or access the weapons locker. I played through the first mission and the gun training, went to the first safe house, tried to open the weapons locker and then I crash to desktop immediately. Restarted, load that save, tried opening inventory, crash. Started a new game, as soon as I get the pistol ( can't open inventory before that apparently ) I tried opening inventory, crash. The hacking games, email system, and computer store work fine ( well, they have their own interface issues but they don't crash ).

 

I've tried everything listed on these boards with no better results. Newest nvidia drivers, newest audio drivers, re-installed vc++ 32 & 64bit, tried running as admin, tried running in compatibility mode, tried uninstalling physX. Same thing, crash 100% opening inventory.

 

Steam Version

Win 7 64

Nvidia GTX 260

onboard Realtek audio

 

When I crash I get two errors:

 

First Error:

Fatal error!

Please help!

Did some more testing. It's definitely limited to inventory & weapon chest. Opening the chest in the saudi safe house causes a crash, pressing "i" causes a crash or pressing "p" then selecting exit then selecting inventory crashes.

 

I haven't found any other problems yet either. Everything in the intel ui & map ui works perfectly. I can alter Thorton's appearance with no problems too.

 

Tried disabling sound device, no luck. Tried turning off AA & AF through nvidia control panel, no luck.

Got to be something in the inventory screen - but you can buy and see weapons and armour in the clearinghouse just fine, right? So it can't be those? Maybe the Thornton model in the inventory? :/

 

Tried the good ol' reinstalling of the game itself, by the way?

No, I haven't tried to completely re-install but I have used Steam's verify files. If I can't find another resolution soon, I'll try redownloading it.

 

I didn't actually try to purchase anything in the clearinghouse but I can definitely see everything in there. I'll try to purchase something as soon as I have a chance.

 

Thank you for your help.

I removed local files using Steam, then redownloaded the files last night. I also removed the "my documents/alpha protocol" directory while downloading to make sure I was running off of clean ini's.

 

A short play session this morning and everything seems to be working now including the inventory screen. Now I'm just nervous some other random thing I haven't gotten to yet might not be working.
