Black screen when launching. Crysis is updated.
« on: March 26, 2010, 03:48:24 AM »
Crysis is at 1.2.1. I was able to play just fine for a while, then I was screwing with me actionmap and I started getting the black screen. I was able to make several adjustments to the actionmap before this happened. Any ideas?

 find the file
"example_actionmaps_for_joystick.xml"

it should be in
C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\mwll\mods



Copy and Paste this file to your Crysis profile found in - My Documents\My Games\Crysis\Profiles

You will have to paste to both profiles (if you have another one besides the default Crysis)

ensure you do this in both the default and YOUR PROFILE directory
My Documents\My Games\Crysis\Profiles\default\actionmaps.xml
My Documents\My Games\Crysis\Profiles\JamesTKirk\actionmaps.xml

Finally delete (or rename) your old "actionmaps.xml" and rename the copied "example_actionmaps_for_joystick.xml" to "actionmaps.xml"

worth a try, though this will restore vanilla settings and clobber the changes you made

Good luck

note it may be called default_actionmaps in 0.2.0, can a dev confirm ?

I ended up reinstalling Crysis and MWLL. All is well now. TY.
