Tried EVERITHING and the game still doesn´t launch. [PC]

[Saltseeker]

I tried everithing, verify the cache, running it as administrator, upgrading the driver, installing EVERY file in the archive, re-instaling the game.

I don´t know what to do next, and this is crazy.

PD: No blackscreen, just "Bastion stopped working".

Tried this. Game succesfully launched, then crashed, saying it didn't recognize a graphics card.
Tried to launch the game through Bastion.exe, and now it works!

Thanks for the solution, spread the word.

When I first got this game it never worked just turned off straight away. I fixed it by installing all versions of Microsoft xna framework. 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 4.0 After installing these versions it finally ran and I now love this game. Please let me know if this works for you.

I tried your tip, but still nothing. This is ridiculous.

disabling the overlay fixed my problems.
you could try that.

i have the same problem. Re-installed the game, re-installing xna framework, net framework 3.5.1 , re-installling direct x , disabled net framework, download really many net framework stuff, disabling steam overlay, ran it in compatibility mode, tried to start it windowed and checked file integrety. nothing worked. so frustrating

[Destroh]

i just decided the game is not worth my trouble anymore it just will not run and i have put less effort in to better games to get them to run

well, until you get answer from Supergiant Games, let's try more:
did you try running it without Steam? from the steamapps/common/Bastion directory (warning: I've just tried it and it doesn't display all text in the menu correctly, so I guess it can also happen in the game itself)
...on Linux?
did you try running it with the antivirus and/or firewall off?
=\ RAM?

I did a search for e0434f4d and found a thread (https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/af2252c5-bdba-4c1c-81ef-209c3f219246/clr-exception-code-e0434f4d) where the solution was to uninstall all .NET framework libraries and only install the 3.5 one (dunno if it's the same version that Bastion uses)
you can try that if you didn't already (and got the same error?)

good luck!

id tried running it without steam, without firewall. the link you found might ne helpful, ill try that tomorrow if i can find the time. linux seems like a good idea, ill try it :)

thanks alot for your help

[crabsnapper]

Dunno if you've tried, but may help someone. Wasn't running for me until I ran in in windowed mode. Put -windowed -noborder in launch options

Try it. Maybe this helps.

@ngel

How I can do that?

Try this first: Go to your Steam Library (By pressing LIBRARY while logged into Steam). Then right click on Bastion (in the GAMES listing) and select Properties. Then click on LOCAL FILES tab. Choose VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME CACHE...and then Steam will begin to Validate your game files. If something is missing, the missing file will be added automatically. You will have to exit Steam before any changes go into effect.

Try this second: Under Properties - GENERAL tab, disable the Steam Overlay by un-checking the appropriate box (It's called the "Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game" box).

I hope this will help someone?
