Re: String File error

Please don't bump threads.

But on the topic of AMD cards, my laptop has an AMD A4-500M APU with integrated graphics, and I can run the game just fine, so just wait and see if the devs can find out how to solve your issue.

Re: String File error

I am at a loss to what is going on.

I noticed you both have the same driver version installed, so installed that myself (we use ATI Cards here), just incase something odd is happening there but nope.

So investigating things further, I have found out that the initial script doesn't catch exception properly. So here is a small update for you guys, to actually catch the error properly on startup: http://automationgame.com/gamefiles/Aut ... _Patch.exe

Re: String File error

Could I get a soundLog.txt?

This seems like a bizarre sound related issue.

Woo atleast we have got somewhere!

After the game starts? So you unplug them to start Automation, plug them in after it has started?

Next thing to try:

Can I get you, with your headset plugged in. Right click on the Speaker in the system tray -> Playback Devices and then go through the Playback and Recording tabs and Right click disable everything that is not your headset?

I am concerned that FMOD (The sound api we use) is trying to start-up on something that is not your headset and is then failing.

Re: String File error

This is out of my control, as this is an FMOD issue. I'll post it up in their support forums. At least we have found a way to get you into the game.
