[Crash] Game Crash; First Vent

[SirGanty]

Hi there,

I can't get to the first vent without the game crashing (game.exe has stopped working etc)

I've reinstalled DX, tried without my xbox controller connected, verified the steam files several times.

None of these seem to affect the issue.

I'm running on a vaio laptop with switchable graphics.

Mark of the ninja is set to high performance (i.e. is running on the hd7670m rather than the hd4000 on the i7)

I'm at a loss... seems as though a previous update should have resolved the issue, but I still have it

Hi SirGanty,

It sounds like you've done all the right things so far troubleshooting your issue.

If you want to dig a bit deeper there are a couple of things you can try that may help identify the problem, although there are no guarantees here unfortunately.

One is to enable logging:

1. Go to your Steam Library
   
2. Right click on "Mark of the Ninja"
   
3. Select "Properties"
   
4. Select "SET LAUNCH OPTIONS..."
   
5. Type in "-enablelog" without the quotes
   
6. Click "OK"
   
7. Launch Mark of the Ninja
   

After that, you can run the game, and it should create log files in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\mark_of_the_ninja\log" (or similar, depending on where you've installed Steam).

After the game crashes, post the aggregate.log file, and I can take a look to see if anything obvious is wrong.

Another option is after a crash, you should see an .mdump file in the mark of the ninja "bin" folder. This is a mini-dump of the crash, and if you upload that to the forum, I can again take a look and see if that reveals anything more specific about why it's crashing for you.

Hi Brook,

Thanks for offering to help.

I'm trying to attach the files you have asked to see, but the upload page throws an alert; aggregate.log: invalid file?

also the content is too long for a single post, and littered with smiley shortcuts, so is proving a pain to post direct.

Any suggestions?

[Brook]

Hmm, can you attach the file if you zip it up first?

[SirGanty]

The zip files also throw the "invalid file" alert from the upload page.

I'm currently using mobile broadband, so I''ll give it another go once I'm hooked up to my fat pipe at home.

[Brook]

The zip files also throw the "invalid file" alert from the upload page.

Ok so we took a look at the forum settings. You should be now clear to upload either the .log or the .mdump (crash dump) files, zipped or not. Sorry about the confusion.

Soo... Is this considered a cold case. Because, I REALLY want to play mark of the ninja. And, I can't play zilch, because of SirGanty's problem. i.e. I am going what he is going through. So, RE-OPEN THE COLD CASE, MR. GORBECHEV!

Can I get you to go through the steps we gave SirGanty and post your aggregate log and .mdmp?

 

May I ask what your system specs are?
