Hi, folks,
I'm trying to even get The Void running, but when I start it in Steam, it immediately crashes, and will not start.
Has anyone else run into this issue, and found a solution? Thanks.

Basically, there may be two major issues: - the game was mostly completed before NVIDIA bought AGEIA. You do need an old "pre-NVIDIA" driver that is in a package. What is funny about this driver, you should carefully read what its installer says, as it will INSTALL driver in case you don't have it, and REMOVE it if you do  WRONG!!! I'm really sorry! I asked our programmer and then checked this myself. The game works perfectly well with new drivers.- the game was developed for DirectX9, and it's better to have its latest version. No, your DirectX 11 doesn't mean anything  An outdated dx9 can very well exist on the PC with dx10 or dx11.Game keeps its logs in "My Documents/My Games/Void", so to address your problem our programmers will need game.log and exception.txt (the latter is generated only when the game crashes, usually in-game). Also it would be nice to have your dxdiag - you may run it from the search string at Start menu (under Vista) or Start-Run (under XP). There is configuration utility in game's bin folder (where game.exe is). Can you launch it? P.S. The latest videocard drivers may also help. |

I'v bought it through steam and had no problems exept for the sound. Quote: the game was mostly completed before NVIDIA bought AGEIA. You do need an old "pre-NVIDIA" driver that is in a package.

What do you mean with a old "pre-Nvidia" driver? I have the latest drivers and one of the newer cards wich has PhysX (GTX 280. Well old by now already.. lol) The steam version has a PhysX installer aswell in it's directory's, you could try installing it from there. But it might be Directx then perhaps. I can't say, as i'm running DirectX 10 on Winxp. Perhaps uploading a DXdiag for others to see might give you more answers.. Cronotorious |

Aaah... Sorry. That's obsolete info. I asked our programmer once again; I was wrong. It requires new nvidia drivers. I downloaded the new version myself, and the game actually works with them. |

Hi, I'm having the same problem but it came up just after I installed a BFG Ageia Physx Card in my system. The game was running without problems before using the PhysX drivers from the CD. I had to install an older driver because for some reason the version of the PhysX Software on the Game CD does not support the older PPU units from Ageia. I'll try to use some other drivers and report the results. greetz game.log post: 04:42:40 [0]: Log file created on Thu Dec 31 04:42:40 2009 04:42:40 [0]: Engine: Final, build: May 26 2009 17:50:12 04:42:40 [0]: Mounting filesystems... 04:42:40 [15]: Mounting filesystem "cache" 04:42:40 [31]: <Warning> virtual filesystem "cache" not mounted, reason: can't open file "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\My Games\Void\Cache.vfs" 04:42:40 [31]: Mounting filesystem "strings" 04:42:40 [31]: Mounting filesystem "script" 04:42:40 [31]: Mounting filesystem "effect" 04:42:40 [31]: Mounting filesystem "tex" 04:42:40 [46]: Mounting filesystem "sound" 04:42:40 [46]: Mounting filesystem "video" 04:42:40 [46]: Mounting filesystem "prefab" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "psys" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "ragdoll" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "scene" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "anim" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "phys" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "schema" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "data" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "actor" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "world" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "ui" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "font" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "gesture" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "save" 04:42:40 [62]: <Warning> virtual filesystem "save" not mounted, reason: can't open file "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Pyridine\Eigene Dateien\My Games\Void\Savegames.vfs" 04:42:40 [62]: Mounting filesystem "log" 04:42:40 [62]: <Warning> virtual filesystem "log" not mounted, reason: can't open file "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Pyridine\Eigene Dateien\My Games\Void\LogFiles.vfs" 04:42:40 [62]: Filesystems mounted 04:42:40 [62]: Loaded strings database "voiceover.dat" 04:42:40 [62]: Loaded strings database "actions.txt" 04:42:40 [62]: Loaded strings database "credits.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "database.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "extra.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "gestures.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "girl.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "hunter.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "keys.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "map.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "menu.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "quest.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "quest_log_english.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "special.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "surface.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "tutorial.txt" 04:42:40 [78]: Loaded strings database "ui.txt" 04:42:41 [1281]: Driver: ati2dvag.dll 04:42:41 [1281]: Driver version: 6.14.10.6869 04:42:41 [1281]: Vendor ID: 0x1002 04:42:41 [1281]: Device ID: 0x71c1 04:42:41 [1281]: SubSys ID: 0x850174b 04:42:41 [1281]: Revision: 158 04:42:41 [1312]: Vertex shader profile: vs_3_0 04:42:41 [1312]: Pixel shader profile: ps_3_0 04:42:41 [1312]: HDR is supported 04:42:41 [1312]: Alpha palettes are not supported 04:42:41 [1312]: Two-sided stencil is disabled 04:42:41 [1312]: Mipmap autogeneration is supported 04:42:41 [1312]: Effects profile: fx_3_0hs 04:42:41 [1312]: Shadows are supported 04:42:41 [1312]: Soft shadows are supported 04:42:41 [1312]: Anisotropic filtering: 2 04:42:41 [1312]: 32-bit mipmap autogeneration is supported 04:42:41 [1359]: Loading texture library... 04:42:41 [1437]: Number of registered textures: 2715 04:42:41 [1437]: Texture library loaded 04:42:41 [1453]: Procedural cube texture info: 'normalize.prc' (64x1, X8R8G8B8) 04:42:41 [1500]: Loading effects library... 04:42:42 [1578]: Number of loaded effects: 129 04:42:42 [1578]: Effects library loaded 04:42:42 [1593]: Loading effect databases... 04:42:42 [1640]: Opened existing database custom (7 dbs, 4735 entries) 04:42:42 [1656]: Opened database vs1_1 (14 entries) 04:42:42 [2140]: Opened database vs2_0 (8286 entries) 04:42:42 [2515]: Opened database vs3_0 (5168 entries) 04:42:44 [3718]: Opened database ps2_0 (19964 entries) 04:42:44 [4265]: Opened database ps3_0 (7677 entries) 04:42:44 [4453]: Opened existing database effects30h (30423 entries) 04:42:44 [4453]: Effect databases loaded 04:42:45 [4640]: Initializing physics engine |
