I'm hoping someone may be able to help me with a problem that started a few weeks ago.

I can start WOFF UE and go to any menu option but after clicking Go To Field everything states it's loading right up until the actual ' Loading ...' screen starts and then I get a box appear titled 'Exception' which contains the text..'Game terminated prematurely'

I've read about a few cases of this on this forum and tried everything advised but nothing seems to work.....I've uninstalled and reinstalled, reinstalled DX9, cleared registry settings, reinstalled to a different Hard drive to a different folder, updated and swapped around numerous graphics drivers and fiddled with just about everything in Workshop.

If I just leave the warning box there you can still hear the audio doing the "Contact.."and engine starting bit followed by the slideshow of WW1 equiptment with some text saying 'Loading runtime......' but nothing happens from that point.

The only thing I can think off that has changed on my PC is that I have added EdTracker Pro wireless. I have also tried uninstalling this and running the game without it with no luck..

Anyone?....Thanks

Log files available? Can we look into them?

Of course yes..

Out of curiousity what version of Windows are you running?

I'm running Windows 7 Duke..Never had any problems before but I've also discovered I can no longer get CFS 3 to work.

It doesn't even start...I'm sure this must be linked somehow.

I have just reinstalled CFS 3 again and it still doesn't run...Very strange

Strange indeed.
Wish I had a good answer for you. I was having some WOFF quirks with W10 so I set the WOFF.exe and CFS3.exe to W7 Compatability Mode and Run as Administrator which I used to have but I have goofed so much with W10 apparently it changed.
Knock on wood so far so good. No odd “WOFF stopped working” stuff

To me it appears you have a separate CFS3 installed, to be sure Delete CFS3 and WoffUE and install WoffUE without CFS3. When installing do not force WoffUE to another directory, use the default.

Install the last Vcard drivers because some versions did have problems running an old directX game like Woff.

It seems to be a problem with cfs3.exe file, because log shows the game crashes at point when WOFF tries to patch cfs3.exe.
Possible antivirus/antimalware issue? Some kind of windows defender protection of exe files? Is cfs3.exe present at "F:\WOFF UE\OBDWW1 Over Flanders Fields" folder? Is it possible to run cfs3.exe (even with error message)?

Thanks for the advice chaps..I've spent countless hours trying to suss this out and have uninstalled and reinstalled so many times.

You are right I think JJJ65. The Cfs3 exe is present and nothing happens when clicked..Also I had forgotten that I'd installed Malwarebytes just before the problem arose.

I've uninstalled Malwarebytes and reinstalled WOFF but it's still the same.

I have no idea where to go from here. Thanks again for the advice.

If your a WOFF fanatic like me perhaps a System Restore to an earlier point since you say the problem just started a couple of weeks ago. Obviously something has changed with your system - probably something real simple - once you find it of course!

If the problem remains I’d do a HD wipe and reinstall Windows. Course the main reason I have a computer is for WOFF. If I can’t play it’s not doing me much good.

No one from OBD with a suggestion here?

Sgt. I have limited online access at the moment so I will be brief.
Read the instructions in the WOFF FAQ regarding submitting logs to OBD for analysis. That will reach OBD for sure.

Thank you

We'd need all the logs as detailed in the WOFF UE FAQ (see our website support page) and send to support email address as shown in the FAQ.
Obviously something has changed on the PC if it was running fine before. Have a think what else may have changed.
