Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Black Plague GameCrash

Hello,
first I had the problem that when I started the game it instantly crashed back to desktop with the error code:
Quote:penumbra.exe caused an exception_access_violation in module penumbra.exe at 0023:004EB5B2
After I solved it by copying the setting.cfg from my Overtune directory to the Black Plague directory (where at this time no settings.cfg was in), I started the game again and played the tutorial, but when I tried to play a "normal game" it crashed after the intro with the error code:
Quote: penumbra.exe caused an exception_access_violation in module penumbra.exe at 0023:004D4EE4
Hope someone of you can help me with this problem, I will try some things maybe I can solve it myself. When I find a solution I paste it here.

My PC:

ASUS P8Z68-V/GEN3
Intel Core i5-2500K
Corsair XMS3 DIMM Kit 8GB DDR3-1333
ASUS ENGTX580 DirectCU II
Windows 7 64bit
Crucial m4 SSD 64GB
Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB
(here is the game is installed)
Onboard Sound

All my other games run perfectly fine. Undecided

Greetings
Ozzelot

Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago RE: Black Plague GameCrash

Already tried to delete the settings.cfg but at the first start the cfg doesnt even exist in the directory so I copied it from the Overture directory, so my first probleme was solved.
Now I tried to delete the cfg again, but then the game starts and stays at a black screen.
My next step is to copy the cfg again and only delete the content in it.

Edit:
The game starts normal, but after the intro I got the same problem:
Quote:penumbra.exe caused an exception_access_violation in module penumbra.exe at 0023:004D4EE4

0023:0054D528 penumbra.exe

Maybe this will help. Blush

Posted it above you, so the only thing left for me to fix the problem is to reinstall the game. Sad
