[HELP] World generation has failed !

[quick75]

Just downloaded this, and i can not start the new game since it keeps popping up like:

The world generation has failed (The world generator process has encountered an error: [WorldGenerator][Exception]The world generator has encountered an exception:[InnerException] System.unauthorizedAccessException:C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Endless Legend\Temporary Files\WorldGeneratorOutput.zip System.IO._Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

System.IO.FileStream.Inlt(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, boolean use Rights, FileShare share.......

Is it has something to do with the 32-bit or 64-bit thing? mine is 64-bit, with all DLCs...

Dank Schon !!
Thanks!!

Either your hard drive is full or the path it is trying to write to is read-only. Try making the c:\Users\Administration\Documents\EndlessLegend folder writable.

Hope this helps.

^ unauthorizedAccessException. Make sure you have read and write rights to the disk.

I don't know if you have Avast, they added a new ransomware protection that locks down your files. I wasn't able to start a new game until I had disabled the protection.

Can confirm, Avast likes to be a d|ck sometimes.

You could also try, to update codec pack (i.e.download "k-lite mega codec pack").
