Thread: Keeper FX Crashes When Loading Levels

    Default Keeper FX Crashes When Loading Levels

    Yeah, pretty much in the title but I think I finally got round to fixing the graphical issues by twiddling with the compatibility mode (Now on Windows '98) only for the game to crash whenever I try to load a level. I've tried the original campaign, free level and a fan made campaign but with no joy and don't know what to do. Anyone able to offer suggestions at all? I'm on a Windows Seven 32-bit OS laptop if that helps things.

    Hi!

    Which exact version of keeperfx are you using?
    Have you got any line in the file "keeperfx.log" starting by "Error"? Maybe posting or attaching your log file here will help

    If you can't find an error run keeperfx_dbg.exe

    I'm using the latest version. 0.38 I think. Where do I find the log file?

    The log file is called "keeperfx.log", it should be in your KeeperFX folder, probably something like: C:\Program Files\KeeperFX CCP
    Latest version is 0.38a

    go to keeperfx.cfg in main directory

    replace the lines starting
    FRONTEND_RES=
    and
    INGAME_RES=

    with

    FRONTEND_RES=640x480x32 640x480x32 640x480x32
    and
    INGAME_RES=640x480x32 640x480x32

    or replace the stated resolutions with others than are supported by your monitor
    ie not 320x200x8
