AC won't start

[richo]

Got a new wheel today T300 setup and AC won't launch it appears to start for a few seconds and then does nothing.

Any ideas how to fix?

[hylas]

Are you talking about the main menu not loading or the session not loading?

One of the common ones when not able to open a session was incorrect resolution settings in your video settings.

[richo]

No It doesn't start at all . I don't get to the main menu even after validating the local files.

[hylas]

I have never experienced that, you don't get an error displayed I'm assuming otherwise you would of stated it. There's a crash_log folder in the assettocorsa root folder. Does the crash files tell you anything?

D:\Games\SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\assettocorsa\crash_logs\

[richo]

No nothing in the logs you get the circle icon like its going to start then nothing. Reinstalling atm so see how that flys

[hylas]

Circle thing? Do you mean MS windows busy mouse cursor?

Reinstall sounds like a good idea, I would just copy out any unofficial content incase you don't have them backed up.

Are you sure you haven't updated drivers or changed hardware recently? Besides the wheel ofcourse, which doesn't need to be plugged in to test if AC is working.
Maybe try open some other directx games, see if they open correctly. dxdiag showing ok results?

[richo]

Pcars works fine that's about all I have installed atm.

[hylas]

There's another log folder too...

C:\Users\$USERNAME\Documents\Assetto Corsa\logs

Anything in there giving you a better idea?

[hylas]

This guy was having audio driver issues causing AC to not open http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index ... ues.33382/

Don't give up like this guy though http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index ... ure.32509/

Looking through some of them posts. Looks like some people have had issues with .NET causing AC to not load correctly previously. Your windows is up to date?

[richo]

It's weird same pc same gear apart from the wheel . reinstalled and still no go.

[hylas]

Nothing in that logs folder in your user docs?

Apparently you can rename that folder in your user docs and it will be re-created when AC starts next. Maybe try that aswell.

I found these no Idea what it means as Google didn't either.

Maybe try starting it up with no controllers/wheels attached.

[richo]

Did that too , fucking thing:)

Have you tried deleting (make a backup first or just rename) your C:\Users\$USERNAME\Documents\Assetto Corsa folder?
I suspect the change of hardware is conflicting with some of your personilised settings... it will just create a new one on next launch of AC with all default settings.

EDIT: Just saw Hylas mentioned doing this earlier, did you do it?

[hylas]

log-file=C:\Users\r i c h o\Documents\Assetto Corsa\logs\launcher_debug.log
That was in your post, is that what we are looking at or if not, what does that file have in it?

I would try what Duke has re-stated. Rename that folder, see what happens when you try openning AC after that folder has been renamed.

[richo]

Did that first Duke , thanks guys for the help.

Months and months without a wheel and I can't fire AC

[Duke]

So have you unplugged every USB then tried firing AC?
If that still doesn't work, I'd be grabbing latest drivers from the manufacture sites for all your PC hardware & installing them. Where possible doing a fresh install (deletion of old prior) & not just overwriting. It might also be worth uninstalling & re-installing MS .NET framework as it can get corrupted (although it's unusual).
What a PITA though!!!

[norbs]

Get it sorted tiny, FNF tonight!!

[richo]

Tiny! I resemble that remark.

Will have another crack when I get home .
