Location of Bug: Launching via all means (Steam Library, Steam System Tray Menu, Directly using .exe, etc.)
Description: Upon attempting to start the game Steam's 'Play' button will change to 'Stop' for 2-5 seconds during which time the 'Preparing to launch game' window appears for such a short time it was almost impossible to screenshot. Then the 'Stop' button returns to 'Play' and the game never ends up being launched.
Alternatively, trying to launch the game directly using the .exe file results in two error messages claiming missing files and a failure to launch.
Screenshot: Item01 (The window that pops up fora brief flash when trying to launch), Item02 + Item03 (The error windows that appear upon attempting to launch via the .exe file directly)
Steps to reproduce:
1. Attempt to launch the game through Steam or .exe.
Reproduction rate: 100%
Below is a list of things I have already attempted/looked for in order to fix the issue:
- Disabled Antivirus (Avast Free)/Adding as Exception in Antivirus (does not seem to affect it)
- Verified Game Files (Successful despite still having the issue)
- Uninstalled and Re-Installed (No change)
- Tried -logging and -verbose_graphics (nothing happened, no dialog box on attempted launch)
- There does not seem to be any MiniDump (.mdmp) file (this was asked for in a forum post I found to help diagnose a similar issue)
- Looked extensively via Google for solutions. None provided.
I have included the three screenshots mentioned above as separate files along with the DxDiag file and the Engine Error log file (I just found it in the files I don't know how useful it actually is).
