February 27, 20169 yr My game froze while I was changing weapons at the inventory screen. It was completely unresponsive and I had to restart via the PC reset button. Now I can start the game, but nothing shows in the news box, and trying to load any savegame, regardless of which, results in a black screen with my PoE hand pointer and no HDD activity. Alt+F4 closes the game, and I can still alt-tab. Task Manager doesn't show it as non-responding. My PillarsOfEternity_Data\output_log.txt shows some "TextXML Parse Failed" and "DataManager could not find field 'Display' on 'ExperienceTableData'" errors. Trying to start a new game results in some disk activity after which I'm thrown into the Main Menu screen again. I hope you can make something out of this and that someone will see this during the weekend output_log.txt Edited February 27, 20169 yr by Gairnulf A Custom Editor for Deadfire's Data:
February 27, 20169 yr Hey Gairnulf, Sorry to say this but you're gonna need to reinstall the game as there are quite a bit of errors in your log. If you are using GOG Galaxy you can just verify/repair and that should fix your issue. Sorry! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
February 27, 20169 yr Author Solution Hi Aarik, actually I managed to resolve this on my own last night and today. I tried verify/repair, but it didn't change things. I then uninstalled and noticed that some directories of the game remained. When I tried to delete them manually I got an error "Error 0x80070091: The directory is not empty". I googled that error and it turned out I needed to run a ScanDisk for errors on the hard drive. My HDD is about 5 years old, so I was suspicious of it anyway. I ran the check last night and installed the game again today. It's now working normally. I'm buying a new HDD Monday though A Custom Editor for Deadfire's Data:
March 1, 20169 yr Great! I'm glad you resolved that issue on your own. Congratz on the new HDD! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
