Startup Loading Screen not working

[22SEC]

Hello. Starting up WARNO prompts me with "Game did not terminate properly. Do you want to load the last known good configuration?" No matter which option I select, when the game starts, I'm stuck at the startup loading screen. I've tried the basic fixes, such as verifying the files, reinstalling the games, and updating my drivers. Any help?

Disable mods and repair the game via steam.

Did you manually delete the WARNO folder from the Steam file directory? Deleting games via steam will sometimes leave bad or files or .ini settings behind.

I might have, since the game works fine on my laptop. Any way to fix this?

Hi,

Can you tell me how much time you wait on the startup loading screen ?
We have an integrity check running that should be fast on SSD and the worst I could get was 45s on my benchmarks on an HDD with a busy CPU.

As a test, could you try to launch WARNO and wait for something like 5min to see if it finally boots or not ?

If you're still stuck after that, you can try to remove C:\Users\<YourUserName>\Saved Games\EugenSystems\WARNO\EugGame.lock to bypass the verification.

It would help if you try to launch it while waiting first before trying this so we can gather some info on this problem to fix it for everyone else.

Nice to see you searched the Topic rather than creating a Repeat thread. Many don't.

I have this issue now 02-07-2024 after first DLC update (Airassault and reinforcement #1). unfortunately nothing helped.
I removed lock file, I delete whole folder. I varified data. I reinstalled game completely. I removed all mods. I waited. So far nothing helped. Any other idea ?

Hello Elerik,

Could you contact support at: [e-mail] describing as much as possible your problem and what you have on the screen.

Also, have you tried disabling the DLC, just to let us know if the problem could come from that?

Our support team will do their best to help you
Best regards,
