BEX64 error

Anybody else getting this error when you try to launch the game? I can't seem to find a proper fix for it.

probably antivirus, related to DEP.

Do you possibly know any fix for this?

remove said antivirus, switch software, or disable it? if it's not antivirus it could be hardware related, in which case, you may want to post your 'dxdiag' report. however, i can't help you with that, you'd have to talk to tech, send them a ticket, since it's out of my scope (need game source/debug).

according to: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738483%28v=ws.10%29.aspx it could also just be a buffer overflow, but usually when i see this error, it's related to DEP and antivirus.

---------- Updated at 04:34 AM ----------

im guessing the buffer overflow would have to be in DEP though, just like the exception it mentions. so yea, DEP related.

---------- Updated at 04:37 AM ----------

you could also disable DEP in windows or via bios, but that's a security risk. shouldn't use that as a perm solution, but you can test if it's the issue, if you cannot isolate it further. it's most likely some software tho.

I tried to disable my firewall/antivirus to no avail. About DEP and anything software related I tried to shutdown anything that's not viable through task manager, again to no avail. I'm not sure what else to do, but thanks anyway.

well, technically, i think 'bex' is short for 'buffer exception', or 'buffer overflow exception', so it may not even be DEP related. the devs may have simply chosen the same naming convention as the error code the DEP devs decided to use... i know i do this, but i name my exceptions ax(argument), ix (i/o), ox(operation), etc... and ex for general exceptions (the dotnet default). so it could just be coincidence.

---------- Updated at 04:54 AM ----------

short: buffer overflow most likely, either in DEP or the game, depending. contact support for debug.

---------- Updated at 04:57 AM ----------

also, inb4; uninstall anti-v if possible. yes, this has been known to fix issues. or try disabling all it's services (services.msc), but even that doesn't work sometimes, it's a driver or a dll ir injected that's still functional.

Yes, I did. My guess is that it's something related to mobile GPUs, but I'll try disabling antivirus/DEP/installing VC Redist packages today. I hope some of those will solve the issue.

I tried all those, also tweaked DEP, nothing. I got so hyped and now this : / But I'll keep stalking the forums.

That's what I thought, the thing is that I opened a ticket at support, they gave me those generic solutions and I have to give them a shot before reopening the case. I'll try when I get home. Do you also have a mobile rig?. Mine has a nvidia GTX980m.

I know this is a long shot since you said you shutdown your antivirus. I was having the exact same error when trying to start the game. I also tried to shut down my antivirus to no avail. But I also have ZoneAlarm firewall, and when I shut that down, the game started right up and worked great. I truly hope this helps you! Good luck!

I was finally able to solve this yesterday. Uninstalled the game, cleaned every folder, re-downloaded the 1.01 patch via direct download at GOG.com, deactivated real-time protection from the antivirus and re-installed everything as administrator. I also have to remark that I didn't try to launch the game from the preload installation final screen, simply hit Exit and ran the patch as administrator. Worked like a charm.

I had the exact same problem. Tried all solutions I read and nothing worked. Then I finally realized someone had plugged my HDMI into the MB and not my NVIDIA output. After I switched everything has worked perfectly.
