DUSK crashing immediately on launch

[chaz]

title. I recently got DUSK through the humble bundle horror bundle they have right now, but I haven't been able to actually play yet. The moment I choose between singleplayer and online in the steam popup, I see crossed sythes and a red exclamation mark, and the game closes. I've reinstalled both DUSK and Steam, as well as verifiying game files multiple times and launching the exe as administrator. Can anyone help me with this?

Do you have Citrix Workplace installed? It's been known to cause issues like this with DUSK.

Yeah, that was the issue. Thank you so much!

I'm having the same issue but I need Citrix. The game crashes even when I close the app, is there any way to run the game with it installed?

You can try the following, it should allow you to both use Citrix and enjoy DUSK.

Uninstall Citrix Workspace and Re-Install it from Command Prompt using the following command:

CitrixWorkspaceApp.exe ADDLOCAL=ReceiverInside,ICA_Client,AM,SELFSERVICE,DesktopViewer,Flash,Vd3d,WebHelper,BrowserEngine

(there's a space after the executable name like a typical parameter)

This will install Citrix Workspace without Workspace Hub which has the Citrix Casting driver causing the crashing.

Thank you, works perfectly now
