kaikaun Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) The title screen is garbled, with the geoscape as the background instead. This happens every time on windowed or fullscreen modes with any resolution. Here is a screenshot. I am running Windows 8.1 x64 on a laptop with hybrid Intel and Nvidia graphics. The bug occurs with either graphics type active. I am running the steam version of the game. If you need any other information, please feel free to ask.

Agent Dark Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I am windows 7 64 bit Nvidia gtx 760 with the most up to date drivers and 16GB of ram. V1.05 HF 14/06/2014 (I am signed up for the experimental build) I also have this exact issue. Let me know know if you need any more info from me.

b0lilb0jang Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I use windows 8.1 x64 Korean version with NVIDIA gtx770 and games immediately crash when click play button on launcher. Trying windows 8 compatibility mode fixes it but then i get the same broken title screen(Steam 1.06 stable). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Yeah, it's a known bug on some slower hard drives (I can reproduce it on the slow hard drive in my work PC). We're still unsure how to fix it but hopefully we'll figure something out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teodosio Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 It happened to me too (using Wine under GNU/Linux). It disappeared after I installed the latest MESA drivers (for ATI video card) and the latest Wine. I didn't change the hdd, so I would venture to say that it is not hdd-related?

Chris Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I'm pretty sure it is - identical game files on the same computer reproduce the bug on my slow hard drive, but not on my SSD. Can't think of any other explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't think of any other explanation. In that case, how would you explain that the problem has been fixed for me without chaging drive? I have been using a ssd btw.

kaikaun Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 The bug occurs when the game runs from my SSD. I don't think it is due to slowness. What an odd problem. By the way, the bug still happens in v1.06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hmm, maybe it has multiple causes then. It is definitely caused by hard drive slowness, but it may also be caused by graphics cards in other circumstances too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asaz989 Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 What's interesting is that the parts of the screen that consistently show up correctly are those with moving images (the scrolling screens). Gives me the impression this has something to do with invalidation/redrawing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legit1337 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Perhaps graphic load times due to low amounts of v-ram? If the cause is as you say, the loading "times out" after a certain point, maybe slower videocards cannot load the information fast enough.

b0lilb0jang Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) run gtx770 2gb and ssd bought few months ago which i think fairly decent system. and still have same problem. doesn't seem like hardware related issue.

b0lilb0jang Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 uninstall and reinstalling game somewhere not program files(x86) folder fixed my problem(i installed on e: drive). still game crashed if not launched with compatibility mode though. not 100% sure but worth trying i guess.

StellarRat Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 LOL. My screen looks like that too, but I thought that was how it was supposed to be! Could someone post an image of a correct screen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asaz989 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Here's /0/"]the screenshot on the Xenonauts home page (With some aspect ratio issues, unfortunately.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 That's hilarious! This whole time I thought that they had changed it to look more artsy! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
