Solved: 8 Years, 8 Months, 3 Weeks ago Menu-Freeze & vorbis_synthesis_idheader

Hi there,

I am still experiencing the ESC-Menu-Freeze Bug. As when pressing ESC, the Menu pops up and the game starts to freeze. I cant even tab into Desktop and i have to toggle sleep mode and wake my laptop up again in order to kill the task.

Furthermore, when applying the 1.1 update, after i try running the penumbra.exe, an error message window pops up stating that "vorbis_synthesis_idheader" could not be found in libvorbis.dll.


What can i do?

Edit:
Win7 64Bit
ATI Radeon HD 5850
4GB RAM

Reinstall the game and delete the "Penumbra" folder from your documents.
Apply the patch v1.1.
If you have still the problem, reinstall again and try the patch v1.0.3.

I have no problems, the game works fine.

I neither have a "penumbra" folder in my documents, nor in local, local low or roaming folders.

I did apply patch 1.1 but it didnt work.

Where do i find patch v 1.0.3? I took a look at the support site and I was searching google but only found the demo.

EDIT: Applied the DLLs found in that OS Support Thread, game is now crashing. Report found in Episode 1 User Folder:

I downloaded it from chip.de.

They distribute shareware / freeware software.

Es gibt kein Penumbra auf Chip.de!
Es gibt dort nur die Tech-Demo, sowie Demos zu Overture und Black Plague.

Ich glaube, du hast diese Tech-Demo geladen
http://www.chip.de/downloads/Penumbra-1.1_20376553.html

und anschließend auch noch den falschen Patch installiert.
