TheLostJoJo Posted July 5, 2019 So I got a new gaming PC last month and I tried to play my steam copy of BFG Edition. Each time I launch it I get this error message ------------------------------------ QA Timing INIT: 000915ms D3BFG 1.1400 win-x86 Nov 9 2012 10:38:21 2808 MHz Intel CPU with MMX & SSE & SSE2 & SSE3 & HTT 12240 MB System Memory -1 MB Video Memory Winsock Initialized Found interface: {B74AE393-FCB5-4A7F-BC9B-38EAA4B37B07} Bluetooth Device (Personal Area Network) - 0.0.0.0 NULL netmask - skipped Found interface: {ACAD87A6-28F9-4483-8EE5-252FB30962A9} Realtek Gaming GBE Family Controller #2 - 10.0.0.46/255.255.255.0 Found interface: {69D06992-7064-4E7E-990C-1C1278BB20D9} Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter - 0.0.0.0 NULL netmask - skipped Found interface: {75252B31-95E7-46A2-82BA-FE5D294610DC} Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter #2 - 0.0.0.0 NULL netmask - skipped Found interface: {7F240FFD-7BCB-4CD0-AC92-8C43D0456269} Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 #2 - 10.0.0.76/255.255.255.0 Sys_InitNetworking: adding loopback interface doom using MMX & SSE for SIMD processing enabled Flush-To-Zero mode enabled Denormals-Are-Zero mode ------ Initializing File System ------ Loaded resource file _common.resources Loaded resource file _ordered.resources Loaded resource file _sound_pc.resources Loaded resource file _sound_pc_en.resources Reading resource CRCs...

Chezza Posted July 5, 2019 This is a very cookie cutter answer but have you verified your cache with steam? 1 Share this post Link to post

TheLostJoJo Posted July 5, 2019 @Chezza several times @Edward850 Radeon RX 580. Fully up to date. Odd thing was one day I was able to get it to load but it was a day none of my games vsync worked properly but BFG Edition booted just fine. Then I rebooted to try and get the screen tear caused by the no vsync to stop and it never booted up again 0 Share this post Link to post
DoomGater Posted July 5, 2019 Does this belong in Classic Doom? There's a Doom3 Forum... 0 Share this post Link to post
TheLostJoJo Posted July 5, 2019 My bad, can somebody move this? Im able to get vanilla Doom 3 and RoE to work just fine but BFG Edition wont load up. 0 Share this post Link to post
