PLS Help I’m goin’ nuts here

Crispy · 2011-05-25 12:26:49 UTC

When does Brink give you that error?

Are you able to watch the Developer/Publisher/Legal screens before it happens?

RoyalZombie · 2011-05-25 13:23:17 UTC

I have the same problem. I’ve got similiar hardware as you. Radeon HD 4870 card and AMD Phenom II x6 CPU.

Brink crashes when I get to the character select screen or after I’ve selected one.

Even though I’ve reinstalled the game (removed every file connected to the game, even cleaned the registry), reinstalled Steam + the game again, tried compability mode, turning my virus scanner off, installed every hotfix there is etc, it still doesn’t help.

McLeod2k · 2011-05-25 14:07:39 UTC

The crash comes 3-10 seconds after the second splashdamage picture shows up(to explain:start game via game window in windows 7> splash damage picture >steam starts> second time splashdamage Picture comes> crash)

To make it clear: I cannot START the game

Edit: When I start via Steam the Crash comes directly 3 seconds after the splashdamage-Picture is shown

Papanowel · 2011-05-25 14:10:13 UTC

Welcome on board McLeod, some people here have the same problem and nobody find a proper solution.

McLeod2k · 2011-05-25 15:06:21 UTC

The game crashes with the window “Brink stopped working, searching to solve the problem” it’s a Windows error-window.

Sorry for my bad english

I will report if i have any minidump files or not

Update: even with the new AMD/ATI Hotfix b the game doesn’t start

Papanowel · 2011-05-26 09:40:18 UTC

Have you tried to look at the steam GameValidation.log?

McLeod2k · 2011-05-26 10:45:17 UTC

what should i find there?

no i have not because i wanted to follow the instructions crispy has given…

Papanowel · 2011-05-26 17:02:35 UTC

search for GameValidation.log on your steam folder and open with notepad. Tell us what is write in it.
