Options button broken

[Apanson]

Hello

For some time I have had the issue that when I press options, ingame or in the main menu, the game crashes. I have tried to repair, reinstall and switching between versions but nothing helps.
I get an error that tells me the index is too low and cant be negative. Is there a solution for this?

[athelasloraiel]

Ill test now.

[athelasloraiel]

mine works well. I suppose game left some setting in some windows user folder that doesnt agree with your PC setup. you could deinstall, find all instances/leftovers of game and erase it, restart and reinstall or manually try to play with config file/ini file.

I have the same problem

[Jon Shafer]

Can someone with this issue please post a screenshot of the full error message either here or email it to [e-mail]?

I am still getting this issue in 1.1. Here's a log for the latest crash found in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Jon Shafer's At the Gates\Logs. It seems to be a problem with creating the screen resolution dropdown. I'm on a laptop so maybe it's something wacky like my screen resolution not being in the list?

I'm looking into this. Should be a fix in by v1.2 at the latest.

[Apanson]

Hello again, I noticed that v1.2 is out. I still have the same problem with the instant crash when pressing options, just wanted to put it out there.

[Elda King]

I just bought the game yesterday and I am having the same problem. It is most certainly not an issue with Windows misplaced folders or files, as I am using Linux (Kubuntu 18.04).

I tried to find the log, but couldn't find a Logs folder in the game installation, or a log file anywhere. And no Settings folder either, so I couldn't check the xml with the options (I'm not sure if this could be a cause for the problem).

Later I'll do some more testing, take a screenshot and send a more detailed report by e-mail. But since this was already reported here, I thought it was good to post.

Edit: the game itself seems to be working fine, I just can't open the options, neither with the button or the "o" shortcut.

The issue has never been resolved

@ amerigus it’s not going to get resolved posting it on here.

Doesn’t matter though the game is abandoned
