Soo i'm gonna guess it's a Intel 12th gen intel CPU problem as this is far from the only game experiencing problems on my PC I know they had DRM issues that should have been fixed but...

 

[AndrewT]

I see no clues in those files as to what is causing this to you.

I wasn't aware of the CPU issue you mention, but do let us know how that pans out!

 

[The Warden]

So talked to a guy from the roguetech mod said something about Illegal Instruction (0xc000001d) but that's usually old CPU is angry at new software not the other way around.

So far it pans out in me not being able to play a game i love dearly

[The Warden]

Found a fix
Step 1. Open "Control Panel" by searching for it in Windows search bar, by pressing the Windows button or key.
Step 2. Go to "System & Security"
Step 3. Go to "System"
Step 3. Press "Advanced system settings"
Step 4. Press "Environmental Variables"
Step 5. Create a new "System Variable" (NOT USER VARIABLE)
Step 6. Enter the following into the Variable name box: OPENSSL_ia32cap
Step 7. Enter the following into the Variable value box: ~0x20000000
Step 8. Now press OK.

 

[AndrewT]

I have no idea why you need to do that. My guess is there is some Windows or Razer update causing this, as the other case I had also used Razer gear.

Can I ask where you came across that process, or did you work it out yourself?

 

[The Warden]

it's a intel 12th gen problem and found it on the mechwarrior forums
