Vista does report the following information when mm.exe crashes:Īdditional Information 2: ed427554f1937210ef41648de5ec920eĪdditional Information 4: cca13f8f543f96760c33218af551ea61Īll my sound card and video card drivers are up to date with what you have in the thread you linked. Interestingly enough, I didn't have the bink32w.dll on my HD at all so I downloaded it and installed it where you instructed. It simply crashes to the desktop with no error message. Well, Ive done what you instructed above and now I no longer get the client.dll crash. Please read this thread: DARK MESSIAH Installation and Troubleshooting Instructions THE USER WHO has installed the game from the DVD, then updated through Steam (so it has become a Steam game, it is in the Steam>My Games list and user launches the game from there or from the Steam-DMMM shortcut on desktop) and gets above error:Ĭopy&paste it into your STEAM\SteamApps\*your account*\dark messiah might and magic single player\binįolder. Which you see in the picture below, and highlight it. (If you can't find it, you can also copy it from your own DVD: DMOMMGC\Disk1\Support\arch\bin\binkw32.dll, or download and unzip binkw32.zip, it's the same file.)Īlso, remove the following key from Registry. THE USER WHO uninstalled the game from Steam, then re-installed (or repaired) from the DVD OUTSIDE STEAM, then manually applied the patches 1.01 and 1.02 (from ubi.com) and gets above error:Ĭ:\Program Files\Dark Messiah of Might and Magic\mm\binįolder, and move (or copy and paste) it into the main directory:Ĭ:\Program Files\Dark Messiah of Might and Magic.
Solution is to copy the dll to that 'wrong place'. The clue to this problem is that by the mixed situation Steam/Ubisoft versions, the game has started to expect binkw32.dll on the wrong place (thus also thinking it is missing an ímage). A mm.exe error, binkw32.dll error, white videos and then crash (or variants on this problem).
