When starting Survivalist, the loading bar gets stuck and Unsupported Version: 249 appears. |
Survivalist is trying to load awardments.dat from a later version.
Unsupported Version number may vary. |
Switch to the later version (beta) and back. |
| I get a "No suitable graphics card found" message. | This usually means your PC is not capable of running the game - you need at least a DirectX10-capable graphics card as per the system requirements. If you don't have this, you will get an error message saying "No suitable graphics card found - could not find a Direct3D device that supports the XNA HiDef profile". | |
| When I try to run the game Steam says "running" but nothing happens. | Typically it seems to create a process called Survivalist that you can see in Task Manager, but nothing actually happens. | Try switching to the publicbeta branch.
Try shutting down the process in Task Manager and running the game again. |
| The game crashes when I start it. | Some people have reported an error message saying "The path is not of a legal form". | Try reinstalling Microsoft XNA 4.0.
Try resetting your My Documents path. |
