First of all, congractulations on a amazing job :)

Now the problem, When i'm playing the game, as soon as i open one of the "metal cases?" (couldn't remember the name in english) in the beggining of the game it suddently crashes and it goes to the desktop. Something in the code?

My Specs:

3Ghz
1Ghz Ram
Geforce 6600GT


by the way, i noticed only now that i don't have sound/music ingame.
Please go to the game folder and copy paste the contents of hpl.log. If possible, upload it is as a file.

here is the hpl.log

for what i shortly saw, it must be something with the sound that is making my crash. it happens when i "grab" the door. Maybe because i have it on D:\documents..... instead of C:\penumbra\ ???
Perhaps you shoul create an installer

ps: had to change from *.log to *.txt for uploading purposes


ps2: tested the game in C:\penumbra\ but the same thing happens... gonna try other stuff. And by the way, my sound card is a Creative Live! player (yeah, old one really) up to date drivers
It seems like FMOD (the soundlibrary that is used), does not find any found channels:
From log:

"Number of hardware 2D channels: 0
Number of hardware 3D channels: 0"

Try and update your sound card drivers.

If the error presists, download the api from www.fmod.org and seee if you can run the test apps.

Thanks for helping us improve the engine :)

this doesn't look good. all the tests were sucessfull and the sound drivers are up to date. gonna reinstall the drivers and see if it works. If it doesn't work i'm gonna try in Vista, maybe i'm lucky there

ricnunes

first the bad news :(

Uninstalled the sound drivers and set windows default : Fail
Installed sound drivers from creative : Fail

Good news now :)

Tryed the game in windows vista : Sucess

So the problem is mine, something i have installed that is making problems

Congratulations on a kickass game
