POST PROBLEMS AND CRASHES HERE // SOLUTIONS

[[Lemons] w!z@rD]

Please do not clutter up this forum by dumping known problems in new discussions!

I've ceased my support of this thread, as most problems nowadays don't have a known fix. However I'll stay subscribed and will help if possible.

(Please be aware that I'm doing/did this purely voluntarily. I'm not an employee of Paradox Interactive, just a volunteer moderator.)

________________________________________________________

Many of the problems nowadays don't have any solutions. What you can try is reverting back to an older version of the game. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1596401837

Solution Pack for various problems:

This had fixed most crashes in previous versions of the game, however, some crashes nowadays don't have any known fixes or workarounds.

Pointing on something and getting NOT FOUND:87907 (random number)
Like in this picture http://s017.radikal.ru/i410/1210/e8/2e0213566ac6.bmp
or in this one http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=82198140
There's no solution, it's a localisation problem and won't be fixed since Magicka doesn't have any dev team working on it anymore. A community made mod could fix this though.

Windows 10 issue - Background process
Set magicka.exe to run in Windows XP SP3 compatibility mode. You can find this option by rightclicking magicka.exe. Open the properties, then Compatibility tab. Tick "Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows XP SP3" and press OK. This prevents the program from running as a background application. There is an error message at startup, but just press continue and it should be fine.

Dungeons and Daemons: stuck in the library / can't move
If you go a little further, there's a checkpoint. Activate it and then die. You and your friend (who couldn't move) will respawn at the entrance of the library and everyone should be able to move.
This is just a workaround and obviously not a good option if you're trying to get the no-dying achievement.

• Post your DxDiag result
  
• Post either your ErrorReport or the details of the Windows error message
  
• Explain what you were doing. What mode did you try to play? Multiplayer or not? Did you cast any spells in the moment of the crash? Level progress? Etc.

> > > > HOW TO POST YOUR DXDIAG

• [Windows Key]+[R] -> The "run"-window opens
  
• type in dxdiag -> A dialog-window opens
  
• Wait a bit
  
• Click "Save all informations"
  
• Go to pastebin http://pastebin.com/
  
• Copy/paste the content and put the link in your comment

> > > > WHERE TO FIND MAGICKA GENERATED CRASH LOGS

• Rightclick Magicka in your Steam library and open the properties.
  
• Open the tab local files and select browse local content.
  
• There should be one or more text files called errorReport_{Date} (e.g. errorReport_2015.05.21-10.09.27_(1).txt).
  
• Open the newest and copy/paste the text in pastebin.

THERE WILL ALMOST ALWAYS BE EITHER A WINDOWS ERROR MESSAGE OR AN ERRORREPORT FILE. I CANNOT HELP YOU WITHOUT THEM!

If you have problems like Magicka doesn't start or getting pink or purple screen

• Post your DxDiag result
  
• Make a screenshot using the print key or http://puush.me/ if possible
  
• Explain exactly what happens, step by step, every detail is important!

I joined a game with already 2 players. The fourth player joined, but the name wasn't displayed and the ping was 0.
Game loaded and we started playing. Suddenly I crash getting this report:

[Nasty]

Whenver I try to play magicka it just keeps saying windows is trying to find a solution to the problem (It won't load) and it will exit out. I can't even get into the game! I have a brand new HP Pavillion g7 with an intel core 13 and a intel hd graphics 3000 card. Why doesn't my Magicka work?

[Wind Breeze]

when i go to start this game this happens http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mcm209kzpd1rspg0oo1_500.png

[TJ the HedgeScout]

I have the exact same problem as Nasty is Raw.
My specs: Win 7 64 bit
2.8 GHZ quad core CPU
6 GB RAM
ATI Radeon 6750

The game worked before with these specs...

Hm, seems they messed up some stuff with the last patch (1.4.10.0.)

[Torex]

I'm stuck on Chapter 2, because every time I get to the part wher eVlad warns you about Jormungandr, I go to the next area and I have this problem:

I can still move around and the goblins can still attack me, but I can't see anything that's going on.

[[Lemons] w!z@rD]

@ Torex

That's a graphic card problem. Give us your specs!

I've got Intel(R) HD Graphics, Core i3 for what it's worth. The game runs fine up until this part, albeit a tad bit slow, which I don't mind.

[igortroy]

game won't run: "Magicka.exe - application error. application has generated an exception that could not be handled".
process and thread IDs change each time, and clicking "cancel to debug the application" does nothing but suspend Magicka in a zombie-like state that needs to be killed using XP's Task Manager.

no error report generated. nothing.
and running as Admin gets the same result.
my machine meets the minimum requirements except CPU (mine's an AMD 3000+, not 3500) and exceeds them in GPU (Radeon HD 3650).
.NET and DirectX are both installed and up to date.

EDIT: solved by @Cpruisken: "search for this \Steam\steamapps\common\Magicka\Dependencies and install xnafx31_redist file... it shoud fix it". thanks!

[BravoZulu]

I'm also having the problem of "Magicka has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution..." upon pressing Play. It doesn't even start the game, no game screen or anything. Literally just bought this game a few hours ago. Any word on why it's doing this, and when we might see a fix?
