Game Crash on Start

Post by Joshua l.Chamberlain »

I have reinstalled SOWG to play, but the game crashes as soon as I start it. The game is fully updated I think. Also I installed the game from a disk.

I think this is the game log

This message from Jim worked for the last person that was having similar issues:
I would first suspect that the full game installer file is bad. I would delete the installer file, uninstall the game and then download a fresh version of the game from Matrix. If that does not fix it let us know and we can try some additional things.
