plasticzaku.5143 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I use WINE/Proton to run the game and had the launch screen hang at "initializing" problem too, so I don't think the bug is related to security software or Windows version. The -usecoherent command got everything working normally prior to the patch, thanks! My Chromium error code prior to the revert, if it helps: [0314/132636.728:ERROR:network_change_notifier_win.cc(225)] WSALookupServiceBegin failed with: 0 [0314/132637.234:ERROR:network_change_notifier_win.cc(225)] WSALookupServiceBegin failed with: 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owof.4713 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 (edited) Launcher would hang after I clicked login, and nothing would respond. Tried the -usecoherent and it would login andthe launcherwould react, howver the game hangs when loading after that. Tried the compatibility change as well and it does not work . I can get the launcher to respond just wont load the game. Description: A problem caused this program to stop interacting with Windows.

Kreiri.9048 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 From the April 18 Release Notes: > Chromium Embedded Framework has been re-enabled as a replacement to Coherent UI. Launcher throws an error when I click the login button and becomes completely unresponsive. Exactly the same behaviour as the first time CEF was added.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I just updated and logged in...so far no issues. It might be something else rather than 'just' the Chromium update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mosartu.1473 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) Google decided that Windows 7 is too old, so they removed compability with Windows 7 in the newer versions of Chrome/Chromium. As some players - myself included - still have Windows 7 installed they are buggered... again. Use the old gui with -usecoherent to get the game working.

The browser should be completely separate from this though. The browser is what can't be updated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthan.5236 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Yeah. Same problem as mentioned above. Seems to freeze. I am and Win 7 as well - not planning to change it soon since I am not gaming a lot and the old computer is enough. Should be fine as the new stuff is not enforced. (But there should not be a reason to. If people want to use the coherend they should be allowed to continue to use it.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geniusman.1760 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Even adding the -usecoherent flag I am unable to interact with the Trading Post (buy/sell/etc) nor can I craft items (I was trying to upgrade accumulated luck, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mosartu.1473 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I presume that the Chromium Embedded Framework is derived from the browser, or uses parts of it. Therefore it doesn't play nice with Win7 - can't tell about Linux. I used -usecoherent as command line and entered the game normally - no problems interacting with the trading post nor with crafting.
