I just bought the game and when I hit play in steam the game goes to black screen with a white rectangle in the top left corner of the screen. And then the message pa.exe has stopped working. In visual studio I get this exception Unhandled exception at 0x000007fedf8eb213 in PA.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000000. The log file is attached
It's looks like game should work fine for you. Can you please try to install non-Steam version and check it? https://store.uberent.com/Download/Install?titleId=4
Eh, I believe I read you had mods. Try to turn mods off or take them out of your user/.appdata/local folder, and verify files in the launcher or verify through steam, and then try again. Try that, and SXX's idea to try the other installer. Reply with the results, good or bad.
I'm not sure where exactly the mods would be installed in the appdata/local. Also I deleted the steam version and downloaded and installed the standalone version and I have exact same problem still. Unhandled exception at 0x000007feddf2b213 in PA.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000000.
Can you please open directory where standalone version installed, then open "PA" directory, then "bin_x86" directory and try to run PA.exe from here. Post about results here. According to your log file you most likely met Coherent crash and for many players 32-bit version still works fine so I want you to check it.
Here we go, I managed to snag another non-working DxDiag. I believe open GL 3 works on it, so not sure why its not working this time... edit: further information, he gets a choerent ui crashed
I doubt problem of player with such DxDiag is Coherent, it's most likely 32-bit OS: Code: Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 32-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1 Memory: 4096MB RAM Available OS Memory: 2722MB RAM(7601.win7sp1_gdr.130828-1532) So better check my explanation of 32-bit memory limitations here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/233250/discussions/2/648816742979172000/ With workaround (3GB switch + 4GB patch) applied it's should work better, but upgrade to 64-bit OS will be best solution.
