How to Fix the Crash After Intro : Possible Solution

[Bob Saget]

The game is apparently riddled with bugs.
One of the problems people are having is the game crashing after the intro movie - no menu.

Go through your Programs list for uninstalling - if you have a K-Lite Codec pack, UNINSTALL IT.

Several people have reported that this fixed the issue.

No codecs of any sort on my PC. I can get to the menu, but it crashes on the load screen.

It worked to me xDD

I have the codecs but I don't crash during the videos. I reach the loading screen and then either it loads forever or kills my pc's performance forcing a crash.

Worked for me, thank you so much! :D

I don't have K-Lite codec pack, and I can't get past the intro videos. For me the final boss is intro video. I really wanted to play this game.

Kills after videos and loading screens. Could not play one second, even on lowest settings, with newest videodrivers. 166 other games in my Steam-library do not have this problem.

if you have Klite Codec Pack this reg will Fix the Crash after the cutscene

Hi! Sorry for necromancy of the thread, but any chances that it could work for Linux/SteamDeck?

Late to reply, but the game is completely borked using Proton on Linux, so no Steam Deck compatibility. It'll start and run the logo gamut, but then the screen will remain black.

EDIT: There's a probability that using new commits of GloriousEggroll's custom Proton might make it work one day... but even then, this game's a notorious performance nightmare with Denuvo slapped on it, so... yeah. Sucks, but that's wasted potential for 'ya. Never seen a game cry out for a remake so badly.

Thanks!
