M&B isn't launching

[nightdragger]

Hey guys.
My life isn't making sence anymore, my M&B isnt starting anymore.
Description of the problem:
When I press "Launch Mount and Blade in Steam", I can see in the Taskmanager that the Game opend, but there is no Launcher to switch the modules, and after 3 secounds the process in the taskmanager is disappering again. (strange)

I already tried:
Delite the RLG-Config
Reinstalled the game
Delited Shadowplay
Checked if DirectX is installed, and tried to install the M&B DirectX
Went into stemapps/commom/M&B, and started the .exe here (Jep, in Adminmode too)

I got Win10, and I since I havn't changed anything, I think you don't need detaile sinformations about my computer.

Did you try to run it without steam? Did you delete the game manually and after that a clean install?

Verify the cache in steam does mostly not work on mbw.

You may have too many modules in the Modules folder. Try moving some old/unplayed mods out of that folder and see if it resolves the problem.

please post your log file here, as there should be some crash in there.

And how did you delete it? Pressed "delete local content" in steam?

I deinstalled it with steam, and ckecked it, there are no M&B files anymore in the steamfolder. Futhermore, i deinstalled the M&B stuff in the documents folder too.
And there is no crashreport, and i don't see any logs

 

[Horatius]

There is always a log, go to mbw and somewhere in there is a file ..._log, that is what I mean.

 

[nightdragger]

I looked at a PC from a friend of mine and... surprise, there is a _log file. I tried to copy it, but it didn't help.

But it seems clear: M&B isn't starting, so it can't create logs or the rgl_config

Sorry, I didn't read that you already tried reinstalling. The above usually works when you have a lot of mods and you're not sure why Steam is not launching Warband before trying a reinstallation. If you are using Steam, try verifying the integrity of game cache. Right click Mount & Blade: Warband in your Steam Library -> select Properties -> select Local Files tab -> select Verify Integrity of Game Files. This may or may not work, but it is worth a try if you are having issues with Warband not launching.

I'm looking up other old topics around, like in FSE forum, that discussed this issue and if you have Shadowplay program that may be causing it

Do you happen to have Shadowplay? I had this problem earlier and when I turned Shadowplay off (doesn't matter if the window isn't open, if the switch is on then turn it off) and it fixed it

Also, if this issue persists try asking at the game's Steam discussions or the Mount & Blade subreddit

ofc i tried to verfy tge integitry

And yes, i figured out too that i could be caused by shadowplay. But i removed everything of the the Nvidia shadowplaystuff and reinstalled the game... I have no clue what might be still on my PC of the shadowplaystuff.

As a last chanche I could set up the PC again... But it is just the last chanche. I didn't get a Windows CD to reinstall windows, and I have to download everything again :/

Would you mind giving me that log file in a [spoiler*][spoiler*] because if there are any errors in there we can look why they are there.

And try to launch it without steam, could shed some light. http://download2.taleworlds.com/mb_warband_setup_1172.exe

I don't get any logs. The gae isn't launching, so it doesn't create any logs

And I have tried to launch it without steam, doesn't work

Have you tried launching it in windowed?

 

[nightdragger]

I should try to start the Launcher where I can select the mods windowed? 
How can I do that?

This reply is late but to answer your question: Launch the game on Steam -> splash screen module select window -> select Configure -> navigate to Video tab -> under Render Method section try checking 'Start Windowed' to on.
