[97 patch] The game doesn't start

    https://board.tera.gameforge.c…_U7-9R5zUfIyzeMV0HJ2MftUo


    I have read the above patch notes and tried to do the recommended fixes all except the re-installation of the game .


    here is my issue ,re-downloading the game is not an option I am sure threea you aware that the GameForge client limits download speeds so it may take days for me to re download and install the game , which in normal circumstances is fine , but i am a returning player who bought TERA club and I am trying to gear up etc so that i can do the late game content now I waited for 13 hours for yesterdays patch to install (which should of taken me just over an hour to download on a 100MB line ) and now its suggested I probably wait I dont know how long to re-install the entire game . its a game i get it but we put a lot of time and on occasion money into it so you can understand my frustration when I say unless there is an option to bypass the Gameforge client and directly download the game to at least give me half my line speed I dont feel like its fair to now ask me to wait another 2-3 days before I can play again.


    NB : i cant use the steam version as it is blocked in my country.


    MY PC Specs

    OS -Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit

    AMD Ryzen 5 2600 six core CPU 3.40Ghz

    Rog Strix GTX1070 OC 8GB GPU

    16GB DDR4 RAM

    Dont bother friends. once you get the game running you will see that splashscreen crash was the smallest of bugs in this patch. the whole game is completely fucked.

    Hello! To make it work only uninstall the game and install it again. I run also the optimization for my Nvidia card from Geforce experience. The character is moving faster, i like it.

    The inventory is open empty and after few seconds the items are shown.

    Before the earlier maintenance the shown inventory was all the time for my 1st char used today for the 1sth log in , even i switched to another character. I will see tomorrow.

    The only issue i cant fixed : my game is mute. I dont have any sound, music , ambient, nothing

    Any ideea how to fix this? Cuz is annoing

    I tried to install vc_redist.x86.exe and vc_redist.x64.exe as mentionned in the post by Threea but it doesn't work, same for the repair and i can't redownload the game because it takes me 3 days. How can we solve the problem please?

    We need a real answer..

    Figure out which files you have modified and delete them.

    Against better judgement I left the computer on for these last two days and just a few minutes ago it completed the installation. IT DOESN'T WORK. Stuck on spash screen.


    I am currently validating the installation. If that doesn't work I guess its time to move on. Sadly I have been here before with the launcher issues, and I really can't be going through all that again.


    Never mind. Was a fun eight years. At times.


    UPDATE: I did a full repair of the game and still the same problem. Been stuck for over ten minutes. The game sadly isn't working anymore.


    PS The minute the game is launched Windows is clocking it as not responding in the task manager. So the installation using the Tera Launcher is faulty, broken and not working sadly.

    This many issues have because 64bit client are just in pre-alpha :D FPS dropping, characters are slower ,lagging :D So many issues :D Cant go normally instance bcs shit are inside if u have low pc..... And you cant now make S1Engine to optimalizate the game :D They are copied the boss bar from mods :D So what need more say about the Tera developers? Old bosses come in with named" new instance" and give new costume for boss and hurrey we are so creative group :D

    Hello. The game does not start, whist in the task manager and then the game closes. I reinstalled the game through the GameForge launcher. Updated Visual C ++ x86 and x64. Windows 10 (64 bit). ....;(

    i have similar problem but the splash screen doesnot disappear....my cpu and ram usage spike to 65+ percentage and is stuck just like that...when i checked the dump file of the process not responding it shows the following.


    next when i check the apps running by nvidia gpu at the time of the crash tera, which is supposed to be handled by nvidia, is missing...this is confirmed with setting the nvidia gpu as the preferred processor for all processes....this happens only with tera ...i suspect with all games in the gf client (possibly those using 64 bit)...other games are running fine...so gpu is fine...running game on laptop....have no mods installed...did every other step mentioned in patch note update...pls give us a solution...hope this is of some use

    I have been experienced this issue. Only splash screen appeared and then it will show as 'Not Responding' in the Task Manager.


    Solution :

    1. Uninstall Tera from Gameforge Launcher

    2. Uninstall Gameforge Launcher

    3. Delete any files/folders in relation to Gameforge/Tera on your PC (some of them is inside the %AppData% folder and Program Files x86)

    4. Clean using CCleaner

    5. Restart your PC

    6. Reinstall Gameforge Client & Tera Online

    7. Exclude Tera folder from your Antivirus (example Windows Defender Exception)

    8. Profit

    I'm just going to wait and see if they ever fix it. If you have played the game since launch as I have you will have experienced many many many many many many many many many many issues with the launcher over the years. I have spent too much time with technical. Solutions in the end came from the users themselves. I myself discovered a way around a problem once and the technical guy thanked me. It shouldn't be like this. They are just lazy and hope the players solve their own problems.


    This time I am not messing with anything. Not everyone that plays has the time, energy or expertise to mess around with the installation to make it work. It really is a shame they can't or don't want to manage their own game. Instead they just anticipate they will lose players. Well if they don't want to lose this one they better come up with a fix. Cus I aint doing nothing.


    Instead of spending two days again reinstalling the game that I had already spent two days patching I have downloaded another game. Much smaller payload. And it works. Whoo hoo. So why would I bother. I will try every so often to see if they fixed it but I'm not holding my breath. For me I repeat I have done nothing. Its their game. They can fix it. They have a repair tool. Use the thing properly.

    Hi, i encountert this problem in the eventlog of windows.

    Sorry its just in German but its meaning that the gsl_tera.exe have a problem fetching the right Contexts from the windows systemfiles of the vc_redist core componets. its funny bcs threea tould us to install both? :S

    ilöl try to deinstall the x86 (32bit version). brb ill hit you with an update



    Fehler beim Generieren des Aktivierungskontexts für "E:\TERA-ONLINE\tera\gsl_tera.exe". Fehler in Manifest- oder Richtliniendatei "" in Zeile .

    Please note that I have already patched the game to 64Bit.


    One thing I have considered to save time is to simply delete all the files from the Tera folder that are older than the 64bit patch date and then run a repair and see if it installs all the current versions of those files. It would certainly save the time of downloading the whole game.

    I did try and move the Tera folder back into its original folder. Currently it is in a Tera folder inside the Tera folder but that didn't work. I don't know why it moved the Tera content into a fresh new folder if it retained files from the old installation.Unless it has uploaded new versions but they have the old date stamp.

    In the current heat I can't leave the computer running for two days downlaoding the whole game again. It'll fry my machine.


    One other thing if you can understand my comment is that the Windows system carries out a file indexing process on all files. This can be problematic when files reside outside of the Windows primary directory ( sometimes ). My folder is on a 'T' drive and not the OS 'C' drive. Back at the dawn of Tera we had to remove the main folder out of the x86 folder to get the launcher to work. My system is launching the game and then not responding. The process has all the signs of a fetch process being undertaken whilst a file indexing process is also underway. To refresh the file indexing system you would need a clean install. This way the computer can understand just where each file is. The current index having not been refreshed is looking in that first folder for the Tera files, not finding them and going through an indexing process. Also known as the green ribbon of death on a Win7 machine. If I could I would halt the game install and let the ribbon refresh the index but it can't.


    It is pretty pointless discussing this with the publisher as they haven't got a clue. The matter is no doubt back with the developer and they are probably looking at way to overcome the issue. Hopefully. If not I gotta start using the Win10 machine... which would be bad, given that Win10 is crap. I'm happier playing something else at the moment. Needs must as we say.


    Thanks for the info. Certainly confirms what I had thought. They need to focus on installation paths for the varying systems and OS versions.
