Hello

I'm attempting to run your demo, and I get an error right off the bat. The first stack trace line is:

System.ArgumentException: Must specify valid information for parsing in the string.

I'm running Windows 7 x64.

I've tried compatibility modes, but they don't seem to help, and neither does Run as Administrator. UAC is disabled, if it makes a difference.

I take it you installed XNA 4.0 runtime?

Indeed. Repaired my installation. Same error. Rebooted, tried again. Repaired installation again, still same error.

Is there a file crashlog.txt in the folder by chance?

Yes, there is. I put the first line up top, but forgot to mention it was from the crashlog file. Here it is in full:

System.ArgumentException: Must specify valid information for parsing in the string.
at System.Enum.TryParseEnum(Type enumType, String value, Boolean ignoreCase, EnumResult& parseResult)
at System.Enum.Parse(Type enumType, String value, Boolean ignoreCase)
at Chasm.InputState.LoadKey(InputAction action)
at Chasm.InputState.AddMapping(InputAction action)
at Chasm.InputState..ctor()
at Chasm.ChasmGame..ctor()
at Chasm.Program.Main(String[] args)

Did you change the keymappings? It looks like you used something invalid. Can you paste your keymappings please?

Keymappings? I just downloaded and extracted the game. I can't get into the game to change anything.

Very strange then! You can get to them via config.ini file. If you haven't changed it though, not sure why its blowing up. Is your Windows set for English or another language as default?

English is the primary. I have Japanese fonts and region settings installed, but they're not used very often.

OK interesting. Can you paste the contents of config.ini here?
