[EM 2.108] CDT when loading game universe *FIXED*

Post by Sorrowthorn »

Hi there,

I took advantage of the Steam sale today and purchased your Evochron game, it has updated to the latest texture pack through Steam. When I try to join a Server or go into training or launch I get a crash to desktop before the bar reaches 100% every time. I have looked through your faq but can't seem to find the answer there. I have preloaded all planet data as I have a not too shabby rig i think and wondered if you could help?

Also, trying to join server 1 gives me a notification saying i need a multiplayer profile, how do i create one of these?

Thanks in advance

:cool: Unless you have a specific need to use that server, try one of the others. Most of them don't require a special profile.

Thank you very much for your prompt responses, running as administrator from the application icon in the game folder instead of the Steam desktop game icon solved my problem. It looks gorgeous out there :-)

Now I just need to find a way to map my 360 controller for basic flight control

Regards

Glad you got it working. You should be able to map the controls to the way you prefer. If you have more than one game control device plugged in, use the left and right arrow keys at the top of any control configuration menu to change devices until you find the ID that responds to your 360 controller, then map the inputs as desired.

Sorrowthorn, Microsoft has a free download that allows you to use a 360 controller with a PC. Their website is being changed right now so I don't have a link. A search should turn up something though.
