Can't launch the game (Games : Vector Thrust : Forum : Support : Can't launch the game) Locked

Hi,
Everything is in the title: I bought the game, installed it but when I launch it, I have this: "Vector thrust stops working"
I've alredy tried to verify the files and to launch the game in admin mod with no results.
Do you have a solution to solve this problem ?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

PS: you may need this:
Phenom II x4 965 BE
4*2 Go DDR3
Radeon HD 5850
Creative X-fi Xtreme audio
Win 7 64bits

By the way, I'm french so please don't pay attention to the mistakes I could have made.

Maybe try re-installing?

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

Already done. Still not working.
Could it be a driver issue ? I'm using catalyst 12.1 instead of the 12.4 because they're more stable. I doubt this is the real problem but who knows ?

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

No i don't think that is the problem but i might be wrong.
Have you tried running it in compatibility mode?
And do you have directX 9.0c installed?

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

Yes, I tried XP and vista compatibility. No results.
Yes, directX 9.0c is installed.

Can you send me please the “Ogre.log” that is in the folder /output/release to the email. It may help find the source of the problem.

It was tested in windows 7 and Radeon video cards, but sometimes incompatibilities may come from the audio card.

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

I've sent you an email with the file.

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

Yes, the issue is really the sound wrapper for Ogre3d that causes conflict with your Sound card. It automatically chooses another device instead of the Generic Software.

It will be taken care as fast as possible.

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

Ok. Then I'll try without the sound card.

Jun 27 2012 Anchor

Also please make sure you have the latest drivers installed.
And if you have the creative sound enhancer active, try to run with it off.

Jun 28 2012 Anchor

For the drivers, yes I've the last version and there is no enhancer active. The fact is that even if I use my headphones which are not connected to my sound card it doesn't work. I'll try more thing today.

EDIT: Ok, when I desactivate all my devices connected to my sound card it works.

Hi.
I just downloaded the gamebut cant play. The problem seems to come from windows but i hope you can help me.
When i lauch the game it seems to install the visual c++ but it stops and ask me to find vcredist.msi. It was supposed to be on a
temporary folder wich doesnt exists. Tried to find it manually but doesnt appear to exist.
Any sugestion please?

Aug 8 2012 Anchor

I'm having the same problem, disabling my sound devices didn't work for me. (Just gives me an error message instead of crashing)

I fixed the c++ problem.
Now i get an error message saying "failed to create vector Thrust process".
Im desperate.

Aug 8 2012 Anchor

@KnX if the installation completed successfully, try running the game using the Windows explorer.
The installation path is probably in …/Dessura/common/Vector-Thrust/output/release/VectorThrust.exe

@Smothmoth can you tell me exactly were the game crashes?

Tried launching from the exe file, still not working. It says "failed to create process"
and something about a paralel process.

Aug 9 2012 Anchor

@InnaWoods & @KnX just to be sure, you need to have the visual studio 2005 SP1 redistribute installed.

you can find the update for Sp1 here:
Microsoft.com

@Smothmoth Your issue is sound related, the game crashes when trying to find the available sound devices. What is your sound card?

Re-installed VS, still no luck. Should I send you my ogre.log?
