Hey chap,
Well i did replaced the missing one, and those on system 32 which were on x86 and not x64. I found them by clicking on the format and changed everything but EXt and API dlls.
For you mate I don't really know because i just have level 0 on programs or informatic so I've not even know how the things I did worked.
Thanks got it working and already played a few rounds. :D Also had to replace a file in the system32 folder. I didn't even know that you could place x64 files in system32 before. xD

Hi all

I had the exact same problem with the game not launching - difference is that mine did launch for a couple of days then just completely stopped

I tried everything suggested in this thread but nothing worked

Eventually i reinstalled steam and now mine is working again

Be careful to backup game folders though as it wipes EVERYTHING

I had this problem for 4 days and found solution.
Run kf2game exe from your steam app folder under windows 7 compatibility. So i have win 10 and its work now.

Stopped working again

Stopped working again

Worked for a day - as soon as i launch payday 2 for the first time killing floor 2 stops working again now.

Payday 2 must be installing something on its initial launch to mess this up

Unable to boot up game without it instantly crashing

Unable to boot up game without it instantly crashing

I've not actually played the game yet. Everytime I boot the game up it crashes and brings up two instances of BugSplat.
I've tried all fixes in this thread, however to no avail I still have the same exact issue.

my specs:
Intel Core i7 3770K @ 3.50GHz
8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 908MHz
2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1

Hi, here's the solution (a big resume of all the solution in the linked I shared) I might have missed some solution, so feel free to had more

1- Check your OS number of bits, Killing Floor 2 don't on x32, only on x64 or more. I hope you've read it before buying the game.
2- If you have the 0xc000007b bug well first verified the cache of the game
3- Reinstall all the programs gave by killing floor 2, by opening the local files by right clicking in the game on steam, 1st files and launch directx etc.
4- If you have a Nvidia, or another graphic card, sometimes kf2 do not reckon you graphic card. So go on your nvidia settings, add in your 3D settings kf2, and put all the perfomance in high. Btw, it can happen that it's not on defaul programs, so make the way to steamaps where the game is installes, then binaries Windows x64/x86 and get the Kf2 launcher.Also check if your driver are up to dates.

Now those are the basics debug. If it don't works read carefully, as it can wipes your all files. Basicly, as I understand it, 0xc00007b is a conflict between x32 and x64 in your computer. What ever it means, you can fix it by changing the missing dlls in your computer, or the one which are not in the good "bits".
so First, download dependency walker (http://www.dependencywalker.com/) open KF2 launcher.
There will be some dlls that are missing, which are light on by the orange (or yellow idk) question mark. But don't ADD the EXT or API. They're useless, and always changing.
There's also the one not in the good format, they're pointed by schroling to format, click, and then u'll see all to the bottom the one in x86 (if you use x64 bits).
Copy paste the file in google, download it, but please don't download the first link, if you don't pay it's a malware.
Anyway replace by see where the files is in your computer, by double clicking on it. They're mostly in system 32.
The last solution worked for me, i hope i'll help you ^^

Can we at least get some acknowledgement from Tripwire about this problem ? It's the most replied messed on the support forum and there's been no input from Tripwire.

I downloaded the SDK and was able to walk around in a map inside the SDK, and yet my game doesn't work (crashes after Georgia video).

I've tried everything the DLL's, reinstalling it 3 times verifying it, changing nvidia settings, reinstall all physX, running as administrator, setting the launch options, updated drivers, graphics cards, windows and still nothing!!! Is it possible to get a refund because there doesn't seem to be anything left for me to try.

I'm having the same problem. I click play and my icon goes green, but the game never starts up. After doing everything everyone has been talking about, I found a problem while using dependency walker. The NVCUDA.DLL is screwing up between 32bit and 64bit or some such. I tried looking for a 64bit version of the DLL but there isn't any. My problem has to do with that, so there's nothing I can really do till they fix it. I guess I'm SOL till then :(

Bumping this to the top so it's still seen, seeing how there hasn't been any improvement on the situation.

Hey,
I'm just another one reporting that my game won't launch at all. I've already tried everyting posted on different threads.
  • Run as admin
  • Launch with the special launch parameters
  • Reinstalled the game (multiple times)
  • Reinstalled all redistributables (also multiple times)
  • Run the game via exe
  • Verified game cache (many times)
  • Reinstalled graphics driver
  • etc...

The thing that keeps me most wondering is that the game already run (played 22 hours) and suddenly it doesnt work anymore. The last program I installed in between was SoftEther (a VPN software), but I don't think this could have affected the game.

Next I ran a dependency walker profiler log (attached as the puush link since it's bigger then 195kb). Some noteworthy lines I found were:

Multiple times (e.g. 254)
Code:
00:00:00.593: GetProcAddress(0x0000000077090000 [KERNEL32.DLL], "GetCurrentPackageId") called from "BUGSPLAT64.DLL" at address 0x0000000180014AF0 and returned NULL by thread 1. Error: Die angegebene Prozedur wurde nicht gefunden (127).
00:00:00.593: GetProcAddress(0x0000000077090000 [KERNEL32.DLL], "GetTickCount64") called from "BUGSPLAT64.DLL" at address 0x0000000180014B0E and returned 0x0000000077098AC0 by thread 1.

Multiple times (e.g. 3414)
Code:
00:00:04.961: GetProcAddress(0x000007FEF8780000 [DXGI.DLL], "CreateDXGIFactory2") called from "GAMEOVERLAYRENDERER64.DLL" at address 0x000007FEDE8F82DE and returned NULL by thread 1 "MainThrd". Error: Die angegebene Prozedur wurde nicht gefunden (127).

And at 3476:
Code:

Maybe the dev's or anyone else can get some useful information out of this...

I have the same problem, though the game has never been able to launch... I bet if we all made separate posts posting the same problem, as well as bumping this one, we would get someone's attention pretty fast.

I also have the same problem of crashing immediately after the intro videos, I have tried EVERY one of the fixes listed in this thread, including as many as I can find in this forum and through google. I even tried putting in my older nvidia card to see if it would change things and it did not.

OS: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit (6.1.7601)
GPU: ATI HD 7870 4GB
CPU: AMD FX 8150
MB: MSI 970A-G46
RAM: Patriot 2x2GB DDR3 1333 PGV34G1333ELK

And my older nvidia card that I tried was a GTX 465
