I've looked around the boards, but can't seem to find anyone who has a problem quite similar to this. | ||

Could you tell us where you got your release from? It sounds like either your copy is messed up or that it's some sort of a developer build. Post some screenshots. | ||

The crash log is as follows: Quote: Exception: Access Violation (code 0xc0000005) at address 7776E23E in thread 398C The odd windows version is due to compatibility mode, I'm actually on Windows 7. I got World of Goo from the Humble Bundle Indie Pack, so it should be DRM free and the latest version. | ||

Post a screenshot if you can. Seeing it's the HIB version, it should be identical to the version downloaded from 2D Boy. Still, a screenshot would make it easier to identify where it loaded to. | ||

Here's the first screen it shows: | ||

I have a feeling that somehow the game is redirected to a test level instead if the main menu. Tell me more: Are you using GooTool? If so, did you try to install a mod or make a custom level? | ||

No, I've yet to even play the game actually, I installed it, and immediately ran into the dual screen problem, which I resolved by going into windowed mode. I also changed the config file so it started up at the proper resolution, and that solved it for full screen. Besides that I've made no changes from the default installation file I got from the Humble Bundle. | ||

You should zip up your current installation, upload it somewhere, and then PM the link to me so that I can study the files. (Don't post the link publicly; you don't want people stealing the game.) Next, uninstall WoG, delete everything in its program folder, and download a new copy, then reinstall. Reconfigure and try again. | ||

I did a reinstall like you said, and it works now. No idea what was wrong with it before, but as long as it works. |
