Game will not boot.

[Direwolf]

All,

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.

I was having the same issue where the game would not load. Here is the fix that worked for me:

It had been posted several times to change the game.ini file and input the resolutions manually to 1280 and 1024. I had done that in the main game folder BUT this is the wrong game.ini file to make the change in.

Go to your documents/my games/armored princess/game.ini file and make the change at this location. I did so and the game launched right away.

Nike-it, you're very helpful but perhaps posting this detail could have saved a lot of us quite a lot of grief.

Alright back to playing!

cheers,
DW

This worked for me as well!
I was trying to get the game working on my 2nd computer..
I ended up copying the game.ini file to the my documents folder and changing the resolution to 1600 x 900 (my laptop res) and then everything was fine!


edit: this was for crossworlds, noticed i was in the forums for The Legend But I guess the fix is for both versions

I bought the Platinum version off Steam this weekend and has a similar issue with King's Bounty:The Legend. Oddly AP/Crossroads loaded just fine. I got it working by doing basically what is outlined here. I'm running it on Win 7 Pro

1. Run app in compatibility mode (probably only applies to Vista/Win7 users)
1) Go to c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\King's Bounty - the legend
2) Find the kb.exe executable
3) Right click and select properties
4) Go to the "Compatibilty" tab
5) Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
6) Select Vista SP2
7) Click OK

2. Manually set the resolution
1) Go to c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\King's Bounty - the legend\data
2) Double click game.ini
3) the first two lines will indicate your xxxx/yyyy resolution in the form xxxx by yyyy. The lines should be
setf ~screenresolutionx xxxx
setf ~screenresolutiony yyyy
4) Edit these lines to indicate your desired resolution
5) Save the file

Relaunch the game and it should run.

I un-did the Compatiblity setting once the game ran.
