Startup bug...

[Spideyknight]

Whenever I try to start jedi outcast all I get is the hourglass pointer. However, after a frustratingly long time and a redouble-click on the icon I get an error dialog box that says:

Guru mediatation failure

Assertion Failed: "clt_IsFilePresent(g_env["Inipath"])!

File: C:CWS\cpp\Framework\_lfx\Source\lfx_System.cpp
Line: 174

Abnormal Termination

Select Retry for Environment Dump


If I select retry, I then get the opening screen and can play the game. If I select cancel then all I get is disappearing/reappearing Jedioutcast.exe in my task manager.

I've had the game for awhile and never had this problem before. I just reinstalled yesterday and now this error rears it's ugly head.

My System Specs are:

750mhz Athlon
384 MB RAM
30 GIG HD
Geforce 3Ti200

And I've tried it with and without the latest(1.4) patch. I also tried a reinstall and that didn't help either. Anyone know what causes this error, or how to fix it? Thanks.

LOL, if it happened to me and you said it still worked... I would just keep hitting retry I wouldn't really care unless there were other problems .

What other hardware do you have, and also how are you trying to launch Outcast? CD or safe-mode, or what?

Yes, I have virtually the exact same problem but no solution yet. Did you ever find the solution. Please tell me.

For those who care, you can work around this problem by creating a shortcut directly to your JOSP or JOMP exe files. Bypass the popup menu which is what is creating the problem.
