Huge problems with PC Steam version need help (Sean)

Main screen bug with AU-text-text-text and crash (Sean)

Hi there, when I just installed the game I noticed the main screen is bugged to me. I have not: new game/load game/options, but all with AU/new game/text and I can't see all options on the screen. Tried resolutions, not fixing this. Even in game planets have Ui/earth/text instead of just Earth. The second problem is the game crashes when I try to enter any planet. I tried help from your website known fixes, but there are no problems with UI texts, just crashes. Even that I tried fixing a crash problem with making 5096 memory. Nothing helped.

Your forum even has a limit of replays. Jezz why I bought this game

 

Can you send me your run log and settings files?  Both can be found here: \My Games\Star Control

 

First of all, there is no Star control in my games if I need to find it in my documents. Maby cause its steam I don't know. And I couldn't find these files elsewhere.

I had the same issue and have found a solution. I also did not have a Star Control folder in MyGames. This turned out to be caused by my Documents (and hence My Games) folder had been moved to another partition. Moving the Documents folder back to C: and reinstalling the game resolved the issue. I have not had this problem with other games so suggest its a bug.

Hi, my problem was fixed. Windows defender was causing all this. Had to turn off some options in there...
