Arbin Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Im having a problem and am asking for help. When i start up vintage story i get a black screen and after 3 or 5 sec a pop up comes up "Vintage story stop working" and then it turns off to display without any error messages nor reports on why it crashed. I have a Win7 profesional with 6GB RAM, i played vintage story on win 10 but my laptop is too old for win 10 so basicly i backup to win 7. Any suggestion how to fix that?

Streetwind Posted February 26, 2021 Report Share Posted February 26, 2021 Your data folder (default: %appdata%\vintagestorydata) has a logs subfolder, in which you will find client-main.txt. This file should log everything that happens during startup. See if an error message can be found towards the bottom of it after you provoke a crash. Prime suspects are driver issues (Win7 is old), or an out-of-memory error. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It describes that a graphics process died. As I mentioned before, driver issues are a prime suspect here. Make sure you have the latest graphics driver that is available for your OS/graphics card combo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
