Launcher exe Application error "Breakpoint"

[J.J]

I have recently purchased the Black Shark Simulation.It appears to install OK,but after clicking on the Desktop Icon , the following message appears, "Black Shark Launcher exe-Application error. The exception Breakpoint. A Breakpoint has been reached { Ox0000003} occurred in application at location 0x7c901230 Click OK to terminate Program " I have tried Three times to install it but each time this message appears. Any advice please, I am the Administrator, System requirements,I believe to be OK and procedures as outlined in the Manual followed.

Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP2

AMD Athlon {tm }64 Processor 3500

2.20GHz. 3.50 GB of RAM

Physical Address Extension

NVideo Ge Force 4 Ti 4800SE

Hope this is sufficient information,as a 80 Year old I still have a lot to learn

I suspect that ED might have an idea on what going on there - however, there's a couple of more items you might be able to enlighten us with.

 

Ka-50\Temp folder - there may be a couple of .crash files. If you could please post the content here, or attach the files. :)

And - if you do have some extra gaming gear, can you please list it?

Thanks for the prompt reply,I have been searching for a Ka-50 Temp Folder

without success.Tried " Search ",Explorer, in Doc & Settings, & C & D Drives.

Where should it be? As far as Gaming Gear goes , Microsoft F.F2 Joystick. Logitec Wheel & Pedals,other Sims FS9,CFS1-3,Falcon 4,Strike Fighters CFS3 MAW & OFF

......I have been searching for a Ka-50 Temp Folder

without success.....

 

 

C:/Flight Simulations/Ka-50/Temp

 

In your main Ka-50 installation folder - In all probability not exactly as mine above, but close enough :)

[Panzertard]

If you installed at default location - it should be somewhere around "C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\Ka-50"

Use your "Windows Explorer" and browse your way to that location - and see if you can find the Temp folder. :)

 

As far as your equipment or other related stuff - can't really see anything abvious uncompatible or wrong so far.

I hope the .crash file can give us some more information :)

Did you get my previous reply? Uninstalled Game removed all trace from Explorer & Registry,then re installed. Same result as before ,but multiplayer Icon opens Reg. Form and opening multiplayer screen.Two empty folders in Temp File, Missions & Error log. Have read through other similar problems with Launcher in Forum but nothing seems to be working. In view of the number of people experiencing these problems,is there any possibility of

a forthcoming Patch .Regards John

First of all try unplugging all your input devices except mouse and keyboard.

 

The next thing to suggest..., by the way have you tried everything mentioned here? Also it worth to uninstall codec packs. Maybe it's even the first thing worth to try.

Thank you for your reply Alexander. I will be away for a while,but will try your suggestions,and reply when I return. Thanks again John

Can you get into the multiplayer part of the game, actually fly? Please also note that your graphics card may be the culprit. I believe that the Ge Force 4 Ti 4800SE is a DirectX 8 graphics card, minimum requirement for Black Shark is for a DirectX 9 graphics card.

 

Black shark is really two separate programs the Launcher.exe (for setting options and picking missions) and the sim itself DCS.exe, which is ussually started by launcher.exe but is directly loaded for multiplayer bypassing the Launcher.exe.

 

That said, the Launcher part of the program, should still work. I had a similar problem with a particular graphics setting on my ATI card, maybe you could try a different set of drivers for your graphics card.

Thanks Nate,and everyone who has assisted me.The problem was my Graphics

Card .I have installed a later Driver and now everything is working O.K.

Thanks once again John
