If the game won't run or crashes, read this first!

[Dark Master]

As of version 0.795, there is an error reporter tool which displays the log for you, as well as suggestions on how to fix the problem. If you tried everything suggested by the error reporter (or the error is an unknown one) please post your log in this topic so I can take a look and hopefully solve your problem.

[Dark Master]

Try installing everything from the CommonRedist folder (including DirectX) in the game's folder.

Problem solved, my gaming laptop has an external button switch to "always use the external GPU". Once I found out and pressed it, the game started up just fine.

Excellent.

Than you if you could help me as the game seems nice :-)

Do you have an integrated Intel graphics on your computer, even if you have an alternative graphics card?

The game uses the integrated by default but they are not supported.

You will need to set Meridian to run with a graphics card instead.

For NVidia: open the NVidia control panel. Go to Manage 3D settings on the left, find Meridian and set the Preferred graphics processor.

If you do not have an alternative you will be unable to play on that computer.

This is my log, the game crashed after the second launch. What is the problem?

Go to Documents > MeridianSaves, open the config file and change the language to English. Unfortunately, the Russian language was never finished and the volunteers left the project.

[Dark Master]

Unfortunately the Russian translators abandoned the project so this language is unfinished. There are 2 things you can do.

1. Copy the Campaign9.mnwtxt file from the English > Campaign folder to the Russian > Campaign folder. This way the game will run and it'll be translated to your language up until mission 9.

2. Go to your Documents > MeridianSaves folder, open the config file with a text editor (such as Notepad) and change the language back, to English. This will allow the game to run properly, but it'll all be in English.

Let me know if this helps!

It's an audio issue, Try each of the following:

* Go to your speaker properties ( Control Panel > Sound > Right-click your speakers and click 'Properties') and make sure that any enhancements to your sound card are turned off. This can be different for each sound card, eg. for sound blaster cards there would be a sound blaster tab here, with a ''Disable sound blaster enchancements'' option.

* If you have an 5.1 surround setup, try switching to stereo. This could also solve the issue.

* Try changing the default sound device to another associated with your sound card. You can do this by right clicking the volume icon on the taskbar > Playback Devices, and right clicking ''Digital Audio Interface'' or ''Digital Output'' to set as the default instead of ''Speakers''

Thanks for your help, unplugged my dolby 7.1 surround headset and all running great. Thanks again.

CAN HELP??

[Some1xx]

Change your computer clock to an international format that uses standard numbers Certain characters cause problems otherwise.
Control Panel > Region and Language.
