*FIXED* The game doesn't start after the "Controller Recommended" screen

[Gianki]

I don't know why the game doesn't start, yesterday it worked and today not, it keeps giving me black screen after the Controller Recommended screen, I have also tried the black screen bug fix, but it doen't work. Can someone help me?

*EDIT FIX*
"I have "fixed" just reinstalling the game, and now it works... I really don't know what happened"

[Pixelated Abyss]

Can you post the error log for me?

[BBG6]

I have the EXACT same issue 100%. There isn't an "error log" for me because it doesn't "crash" it still thinks it's working just a plain black screen (for me that is).

[Pixelated Abyss]

There's always an error log, it doesn't need to crash.

Go to:
'C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\LocalLow\Massive Monster\Cult Of The Lamb'

And look at the Player.log file.

[Pixelated Abyss]

Hrm, perhaps try deleting your settings.json file in the save folder?

[BBG6]

Nope, that didn't work. I guess I'll just wait for the patch.

[Pixelated Abyss]

Have you got a save game?

[Gianki]

I have "fixed" just reinstalling the game, and now it works... I really don't know what happened

[BBG6]

Did your save game get deleted when you reinstalled it? I would assume I could back it up, but just figured I would ask ahead of time. (The current update didn't fix it.)

[BBG6]

I backed it up just in case but didn't have to. Thanks for the help!

Uninstalling or reinstalling the game won't affect your save. It is stored in a separate folder. It's good to back it up anyway though.

No, all the saves were good
