For people that have the startup crash issue on Windows 10 for no apparent reason:

You gotta change Decimal symbol to ".".

For some reason, if your system is using "," it is making the game crash on startup.

You can change it by navigating:

Control Panel -> Region -> Additional Settings

Then:

Changing Decimal symbol from "," to "." fixed it for me guys.
Game loads now without any issue, I can see the main menu and start the game and play it with 80+ fps.

Hope that helps some of you!

Are your drivers up to date? I had this same problem - tried every fix I could find multiple times, reinstalled the game at least eight times, and reinstalled steam twice, and nothing worked.. Then I updated my Graphics Card driver, and it works fine.

Yeah for me it's the same.

Dev said they are working on fixing it.

@Hernaux @AndrewKil Now try: "Bannerlord.Native.exe /singleplayer _MODULES_*Native*SandBoxCore*CustomBattle*Sandbox*StoryMode*_MODULES_ /anticheat " and see if the rgl_log_errors file is different.

A clean install has now allowed me to play the game.

The problem is one of the redists (most probably just the .net Framwork Setup) is crashing everytime you launch the game (because steam is trying to download it for you). Have task manager open, when you launch Bannerlord .net Framework 4.7.2 set up will be the most active process. You will notice that it will disappear and that's when the launcher on steam reverts back to a green play button.

What causes the crash?


When installing .net Framework 4.7.2 manually, I noticed that it failed to install because of my windows version, which was 1607 (over 3 years old). That's what the framwork program told me.

If you're using an outdated version of Windows 10 then you need to upgrade it to the latest version of windows (upgrading will not wipe your harddrives - look for relevant guides). You can find the latest updates on microsofts downloads for windows (v1909).

For me, upgrading wouldn't work because I just have so much junk that to go through every relevant program would take up too much time. I'm not a fan of working when I am on my weekends. So, I saved what I could and purged my harddrive clean, reformatted it for a fresh install of Windows and now framework is installed and the game works.

What does this tell us?

That this isn't a game issue that the devs can fix for you. The best they can do is to give you a guide on how to fix it because this is a problem with software on your computer. Unforuntately, this is most likely your OS. It can't be the framework, because it is much newer than my old version of windows so it was entirely my fault.

Considering this has worked for me, I've found the only fix that is out, as well as the cause. Nobody is going to like it but it's either a clean install, upgrade or simply going through your apps and deleting anything that could be causing an issue with windows. I had 3 terabytes of software, so I went for the clean install. Worked a wonders,and I backed up everything I wanted to keep.

This maybe the only fix for it. But i recommend anyone to first try diagnosing a problem with Windows and clean

Hello,

I've bought the game on Steam today and spent a lot of time trying to get it working. It just doesn't start.
I've watched it on twitch yesterday and it worked just fine. I loved all M&B games so I bought it today .
I didn't expect I won't be able to launch the game or even the game launcher.
I've read a bunch of guides about 'fixing' the game and followed all the steps listed there.
I never had such issues with any game before. Any other Steam game I have is working just fine.

So, step by step that's what happens:
1. I click the green play button on Steam: PICTURE 1
2. It turns into a blue stop button and mouse cursor changes to medieval arrow: PICTURE 2
3. After a few seconds it turn back to green and mouse cursor goes back to white: PICTURE 3
4. That's it. No error logs, no crash logs, nothing. It just doesn't start.

Now, here's a list of 'fixes' I've already done:

1. Updated Windows 10. (as per Callum post on Steam)
2. Updated Nvidia drivers.
3. Updated Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015. (as per Callum post on Steam)
4. Updated .net Core. (as per Callum post on Steam)
5. Updated .net FrameWork (as per Callum post on Steam)
6. Updated Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 (I think this one was the same as step 3, 2015, 2017 and 2019 in 1 install) (as per Callum post on Steam)
7. Turned on and off windows defender. I don't have any external anti-virus software installed. (as per Callum post on Steam)
8. Verified file integrity on Steam.
9. I even did "sfc /scannow" via windows command line. It scanned my system and said everything is fine.
10. During the above I restarted my PC more times that I could count.

Finally I tried to launch the game directly from .exe files, and here's some little progress I made:

1. When clicking "TaleWorlds.MountAndBlade.Launcher.exe" it's the same as Play button on Steam. Nothing happens.
2. When clicking "Bannerlord.exe" or "Bannerlord.Native.exe" or "Bannerlord_BE.exe" I get a white screen with medieval arrow for about 5-10 seconds (PICTURE 4) then it goes to a viking background with some moving horse icon for 5-20 seconds (PICTURE 5) and then I get a crash error: PICTURE 6. However, when I click "yes" for uploading the crash files, I get another error: PICTURE 7

Funnily enough, it counts time spent in that "crash uploader program" as time spent in game on Steam. So I have a whopping 13 minutes played, even I didn't manage to launch this game even once.

As I said earlier, I've never had such problems with a Steam game before and I did a fair share of Early Access games, like Rust, Tarkov or DayZ. Those games had a lot of glitches, errors, crashes and bugs but I could at least start them. It's the first time I've spent 45 EUR (living in a country with a minimum monthly wage of about 500 EUR and not earning anything right now due to Corona virus) for a product that simply doesn't work.

I understand some parts of this post might be consider ranting. I try to not get emotional about it. I loved previous M&B games. But it is really disheartening to spend all that money and not be even able to start the freaking game.

Gif of how it looks for me (not mine but same issue): GAME DOESN'T START

Additional info:

Windows 10 version 1909 (18363.752)
All mentioned software updated to latest version.
Specs: Nvidia GTX 970, I5-2500K, 16gb ram, AsRock P67 Pro3, SSD, Windows 10.

Please help! I know there are many other issues but this one is really CRITICAL.
I would love to experience all the bugs others are complaining about but the game just doesn't start.

So the only way it actually works for me is this.
Step 1: Open steam library and click add a game, select add non steam game.
Step 2: Navigate to where your bannerlord.exe file is, select Bannerlord not Bannerlord Native.
Step 3: Make sure the .exe file is set to run as admin.
Step: 4 In steam library launch the new game it added "Bannerlord" Should be near the top starting with "B"

Hope that works for you guys too. I can't play normally with the regular steam one, so i had to try work arounds.
