Killing Floor no longer working

Fish-E · Jun 6, 2009

Basically it was working fine until about 2PM. I bought it on Launch Day, played it for two weeks, then stopped. Started again this morning and it was fine.

However now basically the gun box and all the boxes there are out of allignment, the game seems to think I haven't played it before because it comes up asking me to sign the agreement again, tells me how to move etc. Furthermore when the loading screen comes up, it's just the picture of the map and the name of the map, no specimen or hint.

However worst of all is, I can't move. Every button stops working other than the Windows button. Why?

Laptop specs are :

Dual Core 2.2GHz Processor
2GB Ram
Intergrated Graphics Card (I can get the exact name on Request)
Vista Home Premium.

All that I've done since when it was working is started to download counter-strike source, but I don't see how that could affect Killing Floor.

HELP!

PS I took a screenshot but of course the boxes etc are removed so it just shows the zombies.

Have you tried deleting Killingfloor.exe in the KF folder (X:\Steam\steamapps\common\killing floor\system\), boot steam and let it redownload the patch and such? It might be far fetched, but I had remotedly similiar case with one guy I know and that's what fixed his issue.

I'm redownloading it first, if that doesn't work then I'll try that.

I found out why the controls didn't work, for whatever reason they had all been wiped.

Tried doing your method, steam didn't redownload...

Probable cause : Vista.
Probable but not obvious cause : Viruses

But Killing Floor is Vista compatible... As well as the fact I've been on Vista since Dec '07, so why should Killing Floor randomly stop working now?

I doubt it's virus's but I shall do a scan.

This is what I keep getting though, it doesn't mention Vista anywhere (or virus's)

It'd be really useful if a member of Tripwire staff were to post...

Just to ask, did you boot the steam after you did that? If you did, well unfortunately it simply didn't fix your problem.

Have you tried to change your rendering device? http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=30754 <--- see this for further information.

I rebooted it, still didn't work.

Um, I used Ctrl+F to find any of those, none of them were found so I couldn't replace them...

It is now working, I just copied and pasted the DX9 bit from that link you gave me.

Thanks!

Edit : The boxes still are not alligned

I have the same problem!!!

I have the same problem!!!

Ok i tried what was listed here to do but nothing works.
I played fine earlier today. The game then crashed on me, and from now on it seems i cant move and the boxes are out fo alignment, exactly the problem you had.
What can i do??

Delete the KillingFloor.ini, lose your settings, but regain the ability to play.

Sorry for necroing an old thread, but I have this same problem. I'm on Windows 7, though.

None of the above suggestions have helped so far. Is there any other thing I can do to fix Killing Floor short of reformatting Windows?

LordDeTracy · Mar 4, 2010

i posted in the new thread about this, im having the same problem.

anthracy · Mar 6, 2010

If you are having problems with the boxes being out of alignment, delete user.ini from c

rogram files/steam/steamapps/common/killingfloor/system

if you delete user.ini it will fix it, it will not fix it if you just delete killingfloor.ini
