Crash on start

[hospitalman]

Suddenly, I cannot start TYW. I upgraded with the patch and everything seemed to go OK. Now when I hit start, the game loads to about 41% and then an error message in French comes up and everything stops. I do not understand what I did wrong.

Attach the !Main log.txt file to your post.

You can find the log file in your Windows documents folder at:
...\Thirty Years War\TYW\Logs

I too get that error when I start the game after I turn on or reboot my computer. Cancelling and restarting the game always works though.

I hope this log went through.

4. Check through the tabs and perform all tests
