Freezing

Post by harperjrdavid »

Hello there. I bought Panzer Corps off of Steam on Tuesday afternoon. I downloaded the game and attempted to play. However, every time I would select the graphics resolution the game would freeze my computer after a few seconds. I've attempted uninstalling and reinstalling the game. I also checked and my laptop has all the minimum requirements. Any idea on how to resolve this problem?

Please try to change the graphics resolution on the Change Settings in the game splash menu.
Does it work?

I've tried that for every graphics setting. No matter what I set it to, it does the exact same thing.

What happens if you don't change the resolution?

The exact same problem. I just tried it twice with the same result.

No. I can't get past the graphics selection screen.

Rename all Video subfolders you find in the game installation folder as _Video.
You should found them at:
Panzer Corps\Expansion\ac
Panzer Corps\Expansion\ak
\Panzer Corps\Expansion\pc

Run the game and check if the issue persists.

I have tried that as well. I've also changed the Audio to _Audio, at the same time as _Video and separate from _Video. None of these attempts have succeeded.

Where's the game installed? In C:\Program Files (x86)\....?
If that's the case could you please install it in a different folder like for example in C:\Games\....?

Please check the site below on how to add new Steam library folders:
