🕷️[BUG/CRASH/GLITCH] ... Startup with Kentie Laucher & DeusExe.u

[MyZones]

When Launching the steam version of DeusEx game of the year edition, I can get the config screen to show, once I select the Echelon Render & launch I get a white screen & the game eventually closes back to desktop Echelon render version 0.3.9 RTX remix version 0.5.4 Windows 11 Nvidia hardware with driver version 561.09 (installed 12/sept/2024) NOTE: The other render options do get to the games main menu even if its in windowed mode

Latest Event viewer log shows, this is with a clean "\common\Deus Ex\system" folder then files validated / downloaded, then Remix extracted, followed by Echelon render

Quake 2 RTX launches fine - slow to start but it does start Portal with RTX (steam) - slow to start but it does start, valve start video lagged

Hi, can you try and attach the log files mentioned here: https://github.com/onnoj/DeusExEchelonRenderer/wiki/How-to-collect-debugging-information#collecting-the-log-files

Another thing to try is to set the DPI scaling mode to 'Application', to do this, right click deusex.exe, go to properties, compatibility tab and then click 'change high DPI settings':

Managed to get rtx remix to crash when ALT+Tab with white screen - taken as app crashed Memory Dump at https://filebin.net/hkjzxho3jyv7jy8w Note this expires in 6 days from 13/09/2024

After multiple launch attempts which still gets a white screen for a while, the game does eventually start - the deusex logo gets a reflection as is circles. Now Despite the fact I set the resolution via Kentie Launcher to 1280x1024 the in game resolution via settings shows something else, cycling the resolutions does not even list this...

DeusEx.ini has [WinDrv.WindowsClient] WindowedViewportX=1280 WindowedViewportY=1000 WindowedColorBits=32 FullscreenViewportX=1280 FullscreenViewportY=1024 FullscreenColorBits=32

Having DPI scaling override on or off makes no difference - currently OFF Configuration settings in launcher:

I was able to (partially) reproduce it, but unfortunately it looks like the bug is in Deus Exe, for some reason it tries to span the game across multiple monitors (at least for me).

I've fixed a bug that would prevent that from working, so that should fix the crash at least. I did notice that I can just move the window where I want to when it does that, either by dragging it or using Windows+ArrowKeys.

You may need to change your window size setting in the Deus Exe options one more time, otherwise it will re-use the invalid setting from previous runs. Alternatively, you could try Borderless Windowed mode one more time.

Got v0.3.10 installed overwriting previous version, once launch & set the options I still get a white screen briefly before the game goes to main menu - not crashing back to desktop so I guess that's progress.

Latest Log files: https://file.io/DzVg2PEMvs2s There are several entries near bottom of "deusex_d3d9.log" that show "Could not find stage: rtx-remix\mods\DeusExEchelonRenderer"

Q) Where does the in game resolution options get brought in from??, doesn't seem to be from kentie deusex launcher
