Small Steam Overlay, Steam client crashes #108

Open Mraco218 opened 10 years ago

Mraco218 commented 10 years ago

GeDoSaTo sometimes makes Steam crash, and when it works the in-game overlay is extremely small and blurred, my guess is because the downsample freaks out on it. The steam crashes happen when I start the tool. As soon as I activate it, Steam is gone and it won't restart until I close Gedosato. This happened in both version 11 and version 12, the old ones work perfectly. Does anybody know what to do? I tried with an updated version and a brand new one, to avoid old file conflicts in case they were the issue. Neither of them worked.

I am also having issues with Steam while trying to play Valkyria Chronicles: Even in whitelist mode, Steam crashes (just quits, no crash dialog) when I open the game, or when opening a new Steam instance. The only way to stop these crashes is completely disabling GeDoSaTo. No gedosato log files are generated.

GeDoSaTo 0.17.1776

EDIT: Is there a way to use gedosato via the classic "drop DLLs in the game folder" method? I expect that would probably avoid this instability.

Troubleshooted this some more. It seems that rebooting stops the crashes, but only until the Blacklist option is selected. Once it is Steam will crash even when you switch back to Whitelist, until a reboot. It's possible that the Whitelast/Blacklist setting isn't being properly applied, but I spent some time playing with the interface and activating and deactivating it and didn't manage to fix it.
