Notice: If the game stops working after an update, it might be a savegame incompatibility. Remove your savegame folder and try again before posting about it.
Registration has an extra hurdle now: There have been advertisement bots, so I added a security keyword to registration. Deal with it.

Please hold....Noxico has stopped working, please wait while windows doesnt do a thing to help and not get it working. I loved the game, in its earlier versions, but not even getting past please hold is infuriating. I am running:

windows 7 home premium
4 gig ram
64-bit operating system
up to date .net framework, java, etc.

I dont know what is breaking but its really a good game and you worked so hard on it.

*after a few minutes of investigating**

reg serv 32 has a problem.
the entry point for the dll was not found. it was loaded, but could not run with out an entry point?

The DLL files should not need to be registered. They are either .Net Assemblies or merely flat collections of function calls (that'd be fmod) that don't need registration.

I'm going to whip up a build that can report roughly where it breaks.

I don't just program Noxico...

Okay. Now there's one thing I'd like to say before I post this special build: you really didn't need to make a new thread for this.

With that out of the way: Special Startup Debugging Build. Run the included BAT file and get spammed with messageboxes during startup. Fun times for all, and it'll help me help you.

Have this same problem. Removed old saves folder, installed .Net Framework 4.

Use windows 7 64 bits. Older versions ran too. Here's the error data I get:

Problem signature:

And this happens (using the .bat to run when the dialog says...

Startup report:
Setting up achievements

Thanks and sorry if I'm missing something stupid.

I've traced the error to one spot where a NullReferenceException could occur.

Achievements.Setup():
if (!IniFile.GetBool("profile", "useonline", true) || !Profile.IsConnected())

But if AskForOnline is set, Profile.IsConnected will then try to ask for permission through a callback function that was never set.
Instead, this obvious fix lets us do the check silently:
if (!IniFile.GetBool("profile", "useonline", true) || !System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable())



A new build is being pushed out now.

Actually, I got ahead of myself. Had to wait because the forum wouldn't let me post twice... OK, start the game (latest download) and it asks "Is it okay to go online to manage your profile?" Y/N.

Choosing either option crashes shows you the splash screen, which says "Press ENTER to begin". Hitting enter crashes the game. Here's the information available to me:

That's an interesting exception to get. Testing this myself...

Can't reproduce. I can guess you must've already had a profile, since the latest download would ask to create one before asking permission to go online, and you didn't say anything about that first step.

If so, perhaps your profile is corrupted somehow? It's practically impossible to confirm without actually having a copy of your profile. In Windows Vista/7, it's in C:\Users\noego\Appdata\Local\Kafuka.

If not, I really have no idea. Open the INI file to disable profiles entirely and you should be able to at least play the game.

IDK to be honest. I started playing on a different computer which worked fine. I did delete the profile, I'm positive, but then maybe I messed up something else. Thanks for all the help though!
