About launching and crushing...

This can be caused by many reasons. We will collect this information.

I've been having the same problems so I looked through the logs. Seems the issues in order are:


Could not create pixmap from c:/Users/martin.yuan/Desktop/downloader/20230704-161755.png

libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile

Unknown property point-size

QPixmap::scaled: Pixmap is a null pixmap


The launcher is trying to take an image from a remote url and it's not scaling correctly to the monitor.

I am also seeing these pixmap errors in my logs yeah

Constant 0% loading screen

Anyone else have this issue? While loading into a match the loading screen is stuck at 0%, making me force close the game and hope it doesn't happen again. Anyone know a fix to this?

After pressing start nothing happens and then launcher opens again

Not even an error, after I hit "Start" in launcher it thinks for a few seconds and launcher opens up again like nothing happened. Tried file integrity, tried reinstalling all drivers I can think of, compatibility options, disabled fullscreen support, updated windows, rebooted PC, there's no weird symbols on the path to the game, launch options with both dx 11 and 12. I'm out of options, does anyone have a fix or ran into the same problem? I'll be greatful for any suggestion at this point. I'm on win 10 if that helps.

Try downloading one outside Steam to see if there's any changes. They're not the same file structure. It won't solve anything but that's just my suggestion but if it did that'd be a miracle.

UAC Admin prompt on launch

I'm okay with these processes when they're signed by Valve, or by an engine developer like Epic, but I'm not sure I trust these when they come from a new developer I've never heard of before. Might skip this game unless they can remove that.

We're still in Open Beta phase. It takes time for that to happen.

Come back again when that time ever comes just for a mere sign. You can have an anti-virus do its work for you for any malicious code to begin with too or just trust.

Of course you've never heard of it before, its their FIRST game.

Hold up, I just checked your STEAM LIBRARY and you play cash grabs anime visual novel low quality games from indie game developers.

2024 releases, 5+ hours and at least 1 game released by these developers. They're not signed at all but you'll still play them?

This game has been out in China for so long while games like you play, developer like "Soviet Games" you've played for 2.0+ hours are ones you trust? Seriously? What kind of hypocrisy is this?

I regret nothing.

In all seriousness; when playing indie games like that, they tend to execute in "user mode" - they don't require any special low-level system privileges, so they launch directly. It's become increasingly uncommon for games to need some special installer that requires Admin privileges (hence the UAC prompt).

What UAC does is just NOTIFY you what the program is about to do and NOT asking for admin privileges.

If you install an anti-virus or even a registry cleaner or a video editor, they'll notify you still with UAC that this app will make changes to your computer (NOT ASKING for admin privileges) because that's what those programs are designed to do. To edit, create, and delete files. The game has a built in uninstaller too and that's part of that notification which will indeed make changes to your system. Other games mentioned here doesn't have a pre-built installer and uses Steam's default uninstaller button to do it or the windows add or remove program instead of an uninstall.exe.

What are you talking about digital signature? These are all just installation information that they didn't put in much and verified by Microsoft as of yet.

Those are in fact two different things and you're changing the narrative like the game is malicious when it already passed Steam's audit before coming to store.

The UAC prompt does not tell you what, exactly, the program is going to do. It's just a generalized request for elevated privileges. It's normal that something like AV/registry cleaner will need those privileges, but not for a video game, unless its uses some deeply ingrained anticheat system (And, then usually the installer would be signed by some well-known entity)

The signature, given in the UAC prompt, is basically a record of who wrote the program/installer, that's hard to fake (they tend not to approve signatures like "REAL MicroSoft"). It's common to see "Unknown" for such a prompt if it's, say, a registry cleaning tool written by an independent engineer with no notoriety, and it's up to whoever's running it whether they want to trust it.

On the topic of the uninstaller: In this game's case, that's written by Valve. Since we trust Valve, we can safely assume it's only doing proper scripted cleanup like removing start menu entries, or the Add/Remove Programs entry.

Not accusing the game of being malicious, but it's also a matter of not trusting people with your life when you've just met them; basic web precaution.
