sounds like your new and just need to learn to play the game

its really not that hard once you get the gang of it

stuff is all over the place you just have to know where it is and what to get and how to play

here is thread i did to help new players get started


also MapViewOfFile is a Win32 API call

error 8 is not enough memory

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15573668/visual-c6-mfc-mapviewoffile-returns-error-code-8


so its most likely your computer does not have enough memory to run this game...


also make sure box exceeds minimum requirements
http://store.steampowered.com/app/226700/

System Requirements

Minimum:
OS:Windows Vista/Windows 7 (enhanced for 64-bit OS)
Processor:2.4 GHZ Quad Core or better
Memory:4 GB RAM
Graphics:Nvidia GTX 460/ATI Radeon HD 5850
DirectX®:9.0
Hard Drive:3 GB HD space
Sound:Windows Compatible Sound Card
Other Requirements:Broadband Internet connection

also this game runs best when running on a computer that has 64-bit os with 8gb of ram and a good desktop 4 core cpu + good desktop gpu

and keep in mind if you have a laptop components such as cpu/gpu are 1/2 generations behind desktop equivalent

how do i clear out memory?

[The doctor is in]

? how much memory does your computer have?

[Ghrateful]

like 8 gigs of ram

[The doctor is in]

well that is pleanty of ram and should not be a problem so long as a good chunk of it is free, that is your not running a whole lot of other stuff. which you should not be if all ur doing is running windows, steam and game

what is your video card and how much ram does it have?


also it sounds like files are corruption, perhaps bad download / update

verify game cache

delete
C:\Users\<username>\Documents\Arktos

if that dont work uninstall the game and reinstall it

also make sure windows, drivers, c/c++, directx, .net runtimes are all up to date
